What do you guys think? and what should i modify to this setup? and he said he had 3 powerful fans too..

First you don't need two of those rads, especially for a single CPU,a single MCR320 with push/pull will work nicely . But hey once you start WCing you'll probably get addicted and may need the second rad :)
IMO your not getting a screaming deal on this equipment by any means, but your not getting ripped off either. Price check this against Direct Canada and you will see what I mean.
You'll need some barbs though, is he throwing those in ?
3 powerful fans mean's nothing, what brand and model, so we can determine air flow and noise?
Do you care about the noise level?
Are you going to install in case or out?
Tee fitting will work but even a small reservoir like swiftech MRes ($25) is better IMO.
