Kind of depends on a few things. The woodfast is twice the power (or the one I googled has) so thats a plus. It also looks a more solid machine.
How many extras and what condition is it in? The cost difference must surely have to be mulled over too. Have a good close look at both before making...
Clean off the glue then stick it back on. It will also need a couple of splines to reinforce the joint. Something a bit like this.

As has been said I would only do it if it's my own chair. Too many potential problems fixing other peoples chairs.

The old one will likely be better quality. The new one will also need sharpening so thats something you will have to get used to whatever way you go. My drawknife was a junk shop find.
Making a propeller will take more tools than just a drawknife as its basically a roughing out tool. Well it is...
You eat one time only at Ikea just to see what it's like. It's not bad but when its ticked off the list that will do. I have been to Skandinavia quite a few times and the food is kind of like my mum's cooking. That said Scandinavian breakfasts are really good and set you up for the day.
Ikea is...
Good advice but notch both ends of the brace then gravity holds it all together. Then a wooden pin either end to keep things in place. Will look better than screw heads showing plus be way stronger.

To me that looks too far gone. I am all for getting old things working but it helps if you start with a reasonable prospect of success. That looks a very outside chance. Keep looking there are better contenders out there. Those pulleys look like it ran with a flat belt so its very old. Just 2...

Sight unseen can be taking a bit of a punt so I guess its down to how often you will expect to use it. If you do a lot of routing then perhaps something a bit more well known but fir just the odd bit now and then I would not exclude it. My main table router is just a Ryobi but I did check it out...
1200w is plenty power for a 1/4''. Not knowing the brand my concern would be build quality so I would like to see one in the flesh before handing over the money.
