Those look like a lot more kettle than you'd need for doing extract batches. You won't need the fittings to move 2.5 gallons of water around. Just lift the pot. I bet the $95 is for the smallest pot he's offering without fittings also. I've seen that posting on my local craigslist also, which is odd.
I'd buy a pot like this
1,
2,
3.
I list 8 gallon pots there so you have room to go to full boils without buying a new pot if you decide to boil 5 gallon batches.
