The price is reasonable, but if the battery is original don't expect it to last very long. While you can replace the GPU in this model, price them before you start on that path -- they will be more expensive than you'd think.
Yeah I am checking them out. A used RTX3000 on ebay is anywhere from $140-200 USD. Rtx4000 get a bit pricey. 400-500 dollars. I think a 3000 would be absolutely fine for my needs.

@rm25088 Be aware that you will need to change the heatsink when going from a T1000/T2000 to the RTX 3000.
From T1000 to T2000 the gain is small (15 to 20%). Going to RTX 3000 the gain is huge...
The RTX 4000 and 5000 have another variation of the heatsink...
