Welcome to the forum!
Check the mirage drive. If it has a lot of side to side movement when holding the mirage drive by the cranks then it could need to be repaired, have bearings replaced, etc. Make sure the fins aren't bent. When you hold the mirage drive out in front of you and move it back and forth you shouldn't feel any grinding, vibrating or hear any sounds. It should be smooth.
Check the kayak thoroughly for cracks/leaks. Check around scuppers and mirage drive well. Look closely especially if it's a little dirty.
Check rudder, skeg and steering to make sure they are all working properly.
Make sure the seat isn't torn or worn out.
Check rubber seals around hatches.
I can't help with price without knowing what year you are looking at.
