Getting it exported from his country and imported to yours might involve some expensive fun-and-games though, and I'd be inclined to offer more for his time then the $300 above the parts cost, and you need to account for the fact that a lot of his parts were scavenged (if he'd had to more of the parts new it could significantly raise the cost).

Even given the safety issues, it's still very impressive.
