I really cannot give you a guidline on price. $2200 is really high and unless you were going to use it to make a living I would consider the older series balanced head mowers (100, 110, 115, 120) before I would pay that kind of money. The money on this mower is in the balanced head. They are repairable but, from what I hear, not the easiest. Rebuilt are available...once again from what I hear. If this mower is mounted on a tractor have the seller run it for you. Listen to it and check linkages for play. Look for leaks. Take your chances. I have the 115 (my favorite) and the 120 (a real PITA) and both are good mowers. Get a manual and, as with all sickles, follow the lubrication chart like gospel. Don't over lube the balanced head. I may have a manual for that if you need one.
