If it is solid I would say yeah that is reasonable. It would be a good deal. But, burl sometimes can be pretty airy, the waste factor could be big. I don't know walnut burl that well just looking at that pix I would 30-40% of it could be scrap or small use piece, or you could cut it and resin those outside pieces.

Can you get an MRI on it? It would be great to help verify Mike's theory. :D

It's not mine but there's a guy around here who's trying to sell it for a Benjamin. I don't know if that's a good price or not?
Why are you thinking of learning to turn wood?! :p :p :p

I would have him cut it open before you pay. If dried and cast in resin, you can make multiple times that amount selling blanks. Or sell a couple to recoup your investment.
Look on etsy what burl blanks are selling for.
