I can buy this stove with all the pipe but haven't seen it in person and the seller is not very motivated sending me anymore pics
It's a Napoleon but no model number and it looks like it may have been painted but hard to tell cause its blurry. I'd have to make almost a 2 hour drive one way to see for myself but don't want to make the drive only to be disappointed so I'm asking if people here can help me with the condition and maybe the year model. I want to know if this might be certified as well...

If it was me, I would walk away due to the behavior of the seller.  I know nothing about the stove.

Do you have a chimney pipe already installed?  People talk about the fantastic deals they got on a cheap stove till they find out the price of installing them to code with proper chimney pipe.  That might run 2-3X the cost of the stove.

Are you going to do the install yourself?  Are you insured?  Will the insurance company OK a stove install, and would they require an inspector?

I've already installed two chimney systems and I can tell you it's for sure a DIYer job, but it takes about two days for two adults to install a proper chimney.  Here's a link to a great company that I bought my stove pipe and chimney pipe from.  They will have everything you need to do a proper and safe install.
