Go for it, $150 is a steal for a good tree like this. Be warned though, Tridents are difficult trees if you live in zone five or lower, they are tough to over winter and if you don't know what you are doing you could very well lose it.

Update; I just checked your profile; living in California you should have very little problem with it.
