used doughboy above ground

I am thinking of buying a nice used (2yr old) doughboy above ground pool for $2500 for everything but the landscaping. I understand I will HAVE TO buy a new liner......anything else I should check out? Pool krete or sand? I live in the country and moles ARE an issue???? I have heard both....sand will be ok and definately pool krete....HELP!:confused: :confused:

I have moved this thread to the above ground pool equipment and construction forum. Any replies to the question should be posted there.
Thank you.
