If you buy a set of carbs that have not been rebuilt, your most likely looking at...
$100 in 4 rebuild kits.
$50 in misc. additional parts IF (and that's a big if!) IF the carbs are in really good shape, a lot more if you have to start replacing the caps, slide diaphrams, idle adjuster cable, I could go on...
$25 for carb dip to clean them.
$15 for carb spray to clean them.
So... anyways, $200 + $195 in parts and supplies to clean them yourself, or....

I'm saying clean your own if they are rebuild-able, or buy rebuilt ones. Buying a whole new set used is a risk... yes, you could get a working set, or you could get worse than what you have already.
Unless your needing a set to scrounge for broken parts on yours, or your very good a rebuilding them, it's probably not in your best interest to buy unknown used ones over rebuilding your own.
But... you choice...
