Default Old Projector - Sharp LCD Projector XV-Z1U

I found one of these used and real cheap. Owner states two of the prisms are not 100%. Would this affect picture quality?

I am thinking about getting this so I can play my PS3 when my GF is watching tv so it will not be used often or in an ideal setting.

I guess what is "not 100% mean" ??? If he can go look at the projector in action, that would be best.
