Hi luminaire,
Welcome to FM.
That's kind of expensive by North American standards, with the average eBay sale at about $3000 for [E] condition. KEH had one last month in [E] condition for $3520. Of course, when you add international shipping and VAT, it's generally not a bargain for you to buy from North America.
I haven't owned a 400/2.8L, but all of the research I've read says that the 400/2.8L Mk II (still non-IS) was a lot better optically. Can you go shooting with the owner, to see if it lives up to your expectations for image quality (IQ) ?
Also, you should ask around to see if there's an independent camera repair shop that would work on it (if needed), and to hear what they might have to say about it.
