how do you check an used bike? p.s how is this bike (schwinn)

anyway guys, i just got this bike last night from a used bike dealer, he brought 2 bikes to my house so i didn't get a chance to see what other bikes he's got. (all used)

this one is a green/black schwinn moab, it is got Avid ad102 V-brake, Rock Shox front fork, shimano STX gear (RC?), Mavic x138 tires and 7005 M3 Aluminum frame.

hows this bike? i feel it is pretty light and comfortable. how much do u guys think it is worth? and lastly, how can i check to see if the bike is in good condition?

as you all can see i am a rookie, so could you all plz help? thx.

Hard to tell. There's no picture. Plus the components you listed are either pretty vague (Rock Shox makes a lot of different models) or plain OLD (Shimano STX)
