You could build one for less if you don't need bells and whistles. He does have upgrades. I'm trying to piece together the exact same pistol setup. I'm looking at a Spikes lower I've already got ($100), PSA has the Sig Brace & LPK for $200, and just debating on whether to do a DSG 10.5 ($400), a Radical Firearms ($360), or just say to hell with it and go all PSA for $579+s/h. Either way, total build will be roughly $660, and I've got sights sitting around here for free. Depends what you have lying around and if those upgrades he has are worth it, but he probably has roughly $900 into it considering the parts. Then again, you could build it the way you want, though, for the same $$$ or less...you'd have to determine if his parts are what you want for the money is what it comes down to.

Sure, but I don't think $550 is a fair price either so telling the OP that isn't exactly helping. He couldn't build that gun for anywhere near $550 is what I was getting at because of the extras. Hell, I'd like to build it and I'm only saving about $150 with the help of BF sales.
"AR pistol, about 300 rounds through it. Chambered in 223 Wylde.
- Spikes lower receiver (Configured for pistol since new) $100 w/ transfer
- CMMG LPK $40 for like BF
- PSA upper receiver $300 no BCG or CH
- Spikes MPI/HPT bolt carrier group $90 for a melonite BCG +/-
- 10.5” FN heavy profile barrel, 1/7 twist INC
- KAK buffer tube $150 w/ Sig brace
- Sig pistol brace
- Spikes T2 buffer $28
- BCM ambi charging handle $70 for Raptor right now
- Magpul MBUS Pro flip up iron sights $60
- Troy quad rail $125-140
- KAK flash can $35
Totals to $998 +s/h give or take, all totaled in parts the guy spent, and probably more depending on when he bought them. You could surely come up with a more economical build depending on what you wanted, but $900 is probably a loss for the builder as it sits if I had to guess. Given the low round count as per the OP, I'd say if he likes the options and can get it for $750-800 he ain't doing half bad if he's in the market because he can't build it for that himself.
He could get a MOE/Sig brace build kit for $210, a RF/Seekins 10.5" for $375 w/ BCG & CH, and an Anderson lower for $40 shipped (Ask me how I know, but I already have a stripped Spike's). Total to $625 and need a set of iron sights which he could probably get a set of Magpuls for $50-60 on the EE. Total under $700 if he doesn't need the upgrades. I'm sure there's other ways of doing it, but the deal the other guy has wouldn't be bad if he gets him down from the price considering what's there. Just make sure it runs.
