I've seen wood in finished pieces cheaper than I could buy raw wood and have been tempted many times. :) I don't think you can make minor changes and sell it as your own at a huge markup, but it doesn't sound like you're going to do that. Plus, that guy needs some changes. :) Oh - be extra careful with sanding, if they put a finish on them, it could be something you don't want to breathe once you've sanded it off.
