Its an old miner, and possibly you will lost moeny with it. Before investing in miners you need to know if you can have a good price of electricity.
25$ For a 60Ghs miner?
No that's completely rip off, especially with the added 25$ shipping cost.
You should look to buy at most 25cents per GH and that at up to 0.5J/GH power efficiency. That miner fail both critera by far, thus no. No way.
Some S3's would be good if you have cheap electricity, like 0.03-0.04$/kWh, S5 if you have 0.05-0.06~ and if you have 0.08+ i wouldn't mine. Hence;
What is your electricity cost and what is your budget and also your location?
Give us that and someone will certainly give you a good recommendation.

Waste of money for badly outdated stuff.
Don't get that miner would be my advice. I just don't think it is a great choice.
What is your electricity price? And what is your amount you feel comparable investing? With that we can help pick something much better for you.
I would look for an Antminer S3 You can get them and a psu for $150 That will get you around 445Gh/s @385 Watts.
for a starter you can calc the roi if your free eletricity it gets like 3 dollars to 4 dollars per month and than into 6 months can be payed and he workths like 5 dollars then lol
eats more than 1 watt per GHs = loss unless you have free or near-free electric.
Waste of time and money as a general rule.

1kw for 1 tera is way too much, one should aim at 0.5 per giga or 500 per tera
the s7 is 250w per tera currently...

It's mining bitcoin's algo on BTCguild, so it can only mine SHA-256, so therefor no altcoin such as litecoin mining... Not to mention that Antminer U3 will do the same thing speed wise and it's a known product, I haven't heard of this machine. It won't make back ROI any time soon, it's too slow (~60GH/s) to make much money these days, pretty much only a few cents a day.
TL;DR
Too slow to make money back, not well known product, wouldn't buy it personally.
