Nice find.
But seriously, don't skimp on the hose! They will fail on you and can make a real mess. You should be able to find a 50' new hose for about $40, and it should last you a few years.
It is a good idea to replace your hoses about every 2 years or so depending on usage. I have been spraying for about 20 years, and have had 3 hoses blow on me. Trust me they give no warning, and they usually fail at the coupling. And if you get serious about using the airless, you might want to invest in an 1/8th id hose. They are real arm savers.
