Well, it might not be dodgy but it sure is ugly.

Red mother-of-toiletseat.

Both the bellows and the keyboard look a wee bit small...

I'd sure want to play it or one like it before bothering.

Sounds like the buyer bought it and couldn't play it so
assurances about 'playability' are rather meaningless.
And inexpensive melodeons can be really awful. To me,
the a Hohner 'pokerwork' which has been carefully set
up and perhaps modified a bit are the minimum standard
for 'playable' instruments.
