Buy recommendations SKS Current Prices Worth it?

Just got my pal and ive always intended to get an sks, but after 9 months of waiting the prices have gone up quite a bit since originally intending to buy one

in your opinion is the current price range of 700-1000ish$ worth it for an sks? i always see one of the main selling points as being cheap, but if a more modern rifles only a few hundred more at this price point is it really worth buying an sks still?

It wasn’t my favourite range shooter and I’d have no ability to hunt with it. Rather than price gouge, I had a close friend that had helped me before and I gave him a deal since he loves them.
