The good ones were made 1992-2002. Those last few years with the 7 digit serial number, one piece bottom metal, white extractors and recessed crown were for the most part, sub par, to be nice. The OP's gun is a pre '03 and $700+ is never out of the question for a good 5 or 6 digit Classic.
+1. Totally agree. I am holding on to my 6 digit classic 30-06 because it has none of the problems that I hear about. It's freakishly accurate and utterly reliable. I recently sold another good one with a 5 digit serial #. That one was also a great rifle, but chambered in 7mm rem mag. The FWT in question looks like an early 90's classic fwt and well worth the money the OP said the seller wants. Hell, it's worth twice that like BobinNH said.
