If you don't live in the dozen or so states that don't allow shipping of unapproved citrus. Neat tree though if you trust the seller.

I'd be shocked if the fruit from this tree actually look like the one in the picture. Nice grafted Sanguinello/Sanguinelli trees can be had for around $20 from well known sellers such as Four Winds (in California): https://www.fourwindsgrowers.com/store/blood-oranges.html?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=34&category_id=7 (https://www.fourwindsgrowers.com/store/blood-oranges.html?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=34&category_id=7) or Harris Citrus (in Florida): http://www.harriscitrus.com/store/index.php?cPath=19. (http://www.harriscitrus.com/store/index.php?cPath=19.) Both can ship out of state to non-quarintine areas.

The fruit doesn't actually look like that (beachball variegated pattern) ?? I bought a sanguinelli fruit at the store and it looked like a normal blood orange - that is, orange outside with slight red blush, and red/pink inside.
