Default Need some advice on fabarm sxs 12 gauge

I have come across a guy trying to sell a fabarm sxs 12 gauge. He does let know much about it, so this is where I need some of you experts to help me out hopefully. The serial number on the gun is 801473, he says it dates back to the 80s. Says it's chambered for 3" and has 28 inch barrels, also has a English stock and a picture of a lion on it. My question to you guys is are these good shotguns or should I stay away? And if they are decent what are they worth? I'll add some pictures because everyone likes pictures haha

Weren't a lot of their SXS's brought into N. America, they don't advertise the new version of the Lion, the Classis, in the US even, have to go to the Italian website to even see it. may not have some of the handling finesse of some other guns in some people's opinions, or some of the extra finishing touches, but, they are a good manufacturer and build good stuff. Service is available thru TSE, he has been handling them for quite a few yrs.
