I think $1300 is overpriced. You can get in to a refurbished iMac 27-inch 2.8GHz Intel Quad-Core i5 processor for $1400, so... I'd say $1100.

$1100 or less. Probably closer to $1000. The i3 really drops the value, and the RAM doesn't add much (Maybe $40).

How would the i3 handle Aperture photo editing?

If so, I'd make a bid for this machine.

Yes, it will handle Aperture photo editing. I recently sold a 3.02 i3 that my wife used with Aperture no problem. It had, at times, 8GB or 16GB of RAM and had no issues handling Aperture with 8GB.
