Is this a good deal?

Okay well im running Avid mechanicals in the front and i wanted to have disc brakes in the rear and all. Yes i have the right hubs and a frame that supports it, but a friend of mine said he will sell me His Magura Louise front and rear set for 80 dollars. I dont know much about hydraulics so yea, they look in good shape. He said they work well and he doesnt need them anymore because hes gotten more into road biking. He had them for 8 months, they come with the complete assembly. Is 80 dollars for the F + R set a good deal?

a new set of mechs will cost you around $140 anyway, for hydraulics $80 tends to be pretty good. dont know about the particular brand and make, but go test them out - only way to know if they're in good condition
