Today while driving I saw a sign for estate sale that said aquariums. Inside she had a 125 for 75 dollars that had no water in it but said it had a small leak.she's holding it for me is it Worth it to repair it? Or losing battle
 
Generally if the tank is over 50g then it's always worth it to fix a leak. I've never had to do it personally but I've heard it can be very time consuming and test your patience, but in the end, worth it.
 
If it was me I would grab it. I fix tanks of any size, right down to 2.5 gals. Resealing can be a bit tedious but isn't technically difficult.
 
Grab it! Depending on where/if there really is a crack, it might not be too bad. Also, if you have never repaired a tank before(personally I have not) it will be a good learning experience.
 
If its just to reseal isnt that hard. check for scratches, they wont show up when you fill up the tank, but when there is light on in the tank.
