Could be a shredder, maybe a ripper? But it's got lugs, unicrown fork, parrot green with gold/yellow lettering...
I'm stumped, nothing quite matches in the catalogs.

I'm betting it's a Triplecross. Color looks pretty close to this: Whistle | Bike | Restoration | Collective: Catherine's 1991 Emerald Green Miyata Triplecross
Not sure I'd pay $150 but I wish this were in my area, I've been looking for one of these...

Thank you!! I think that's it! I just assumed it was an ATB, a cross bike could be better!
I'm looking for a road bike for my GF, who's 5'2" and the seller said this is a 50cm, so it could work... the top tube could be long at 54cm though, time to get out her other bikes and a tape measure.
THANK YOU!

You're welcome 
Yeah I think the top tube on these were usually a bit longer than the seat tube. Make sure to measure the tube when you get there, since sometimes sellers mis-measure. Good luck hope you can get it!
