That's apparently a $400+ printer new, so yes, I'd say $100 for it is a good deal.

That said, Prusas in general have always been too rich for my blood; my idea of a "good" printer is a Creality Ender 3 V3 SE that I got as an open-box for $150. I'd probably still take that over a Prusa Mini because the print volume is bigger, but the low price you found would definitely get me considering the smaller printer.
