Used Nikon TC-17e II 1.7x Teleconverter for $350 good deal or no?

I found a used Nikon 1.7x teleconverter for $375, they are claiming it's like new. Good deal or no? New this thing is over $500. Would you buy or you think there are better deals?

I was able to find more than a dozen "deals" on this item by looking at ebay. I grabbed one at random as an example... cgi.ebay.com/Nikon-TC-17E-II-Teleconvert...570d4#ht_3126wt_1139

New, US $363.95 from Hong Kong... I don't know what the differences might be in the actual lenses but there are deals everywhere. Perhaps this knowledge will help you negotiate a better price from your current seller.

That's a great price if it is in fact, "like new". Are you able to check the teleconverter out before buying?

I recently sold my used 'like new' TC-17eII for $300.
It was complete with box and all.

Have you looked at other used prices. Also , don't forget there is a newer model out, or so I have been told. I bought mine when it first came out for $420
