I can tell you what I paid this year for a brand new Oslo with the blue/black enamel and short leg kit - $3,000.
An abused enamel stove can be a sorry sight but if this is for the basement then it may be ok. Most importantly is how the enamel was damaged. If by overfiring I would walk away. Water falling on a hot stove can also damage enamel. Examine the stove very carefully for cracking both outside and inside and in particular the interior base around the grate. Use a bright flashlight when examining. If the room can be darkened, shine inside toward the outside and look for light leaks. That will indicate seams needing resealing.
