Price wise I'd say you paid about right for it, unless it was a renovated sled, but it doesn't sound like it. I just gave $50.00 for one.
1st, it would be easier to read your post if you wouldn't use IM/IRC slang.
Have you raised the rear of the sled up with the stand, does the track turn at all ?
You might need to rebuild the clutch. Does it make any noise when you try to give throttle, if so what kind of noise. Might also check/replace the belt if the track turns when it's raised but not when it's under pressure i.e. sitting on the ground.
