Just to give my experience, I ended up buying a used kicker from Brobeil Marine on Niagara street and had a really nice experience. They also had a bunch of other used outboards there for sale. It took longer than I would have liked, but everything seemed up front and very honest. In fact my project took longer and was a PIA for them but they still didn't charge me extra, even though I expected them to, we never had a hard quote signed or anything just a ballpark figure. I did tip them cash under the table though. I dealt with Fran Brobeil, and would go back in the future.
