Is this a good idea?

[Neo5370 132]

Any opinions on these skates? I know they are pretty old but I have a chance to get a pair for about 125.00 US. All I know about these skates is that they were comparable to Bauer 7000's according to HockeyGiant, way back when they were on closeout.............now, what I'd like to know is

How they are sized/fit and for comparison I can say that I am using 703's right now size 6R. And they feel about a quarter to a half size short and the toe box is slightly too narrow. The heel and midfoot is fine, especially the arches, as mine are kind of low. (I have a choice of 7D or 7.5D in the Ignites)

I really like my graf's but I simply don't have another 400 dollars to get a different size, and these seemed like a good deal.

I know it's a longshot asking for such specific info on such an old product, but any help is hugely appreciated!

I wore a 9.5R in Graf 703's which fit fine, used a 9.5D in the Ignites for about a month and they were just too narrow, length was fine. If you usually wear a regular width go wider with the Ignites, they fit narrow.
