Older Giant MTB: Should I buy it?

Hi all,

I enjoy riding bikes, but am just starting off in terms of getting a "more solid" bike than my big chain store model. I came across an older Giant (A 950?? or A 450??) that is listed on Craigslist for $125. Pictures are included and I would appreciate any feedback on whether this bike is worth it or if I should splurge a little more on something with better frame, components, etc.

The sellers says the bike is in good shape and recently tuned with new tubes and chain. The bike frame is a fit for me. I would use the bike for some trail riding and in the town I live in to run errands.

Is this worth getting or are the components crud and not worth it, even for a beginner bike?

Thanks in advance for any input.
