I would say for a decent setup, $700-$1000 should get you one system from some one who wants to get out of this hobby

Sure wish I had bought someone elses system... I went all new for most of my stuff... Never again
I definatly recommend finding someone whos is moving or "shutting down" and selling a complete system. Even if you don't like the fish, corals or equipment you can change/trade/sell, whenever you want. Most people have $5000+ into an aquarium that size and they usually sell for less than a $1000 (Which doesn't even cover the stand, sump and aquarium)
Also do as much research as possible on anything you can get your hands on. You should know that this can be very addictive aswell, so be prepared to attend AA (Aquarium Addict) meetings and interventions
Good luck!
