If you are in no rush, I was able to get this Used from tools_direct on ebay for $59 ($84 - $25 off) a couple months back when they were doing their extra 30% off sale. The compressor pretty much came new as there was no markings or signs of use, but YMMY.
Including getting everything out of the garage, moving everything to the opposite side of the house, setting up, performing the blowouts, and cleanup, it takes me less than 1 hour. Super easy.
No way in hell having this air compressor blow out at 60-70 psi is "hard" on it.
The first year I blew out all 6 zones and then went back and tried to blow them all out again to make sure all water was gone. There was no need. They all were emptied of water after the first blowout. In any case, even if there was some amount of water left in there, it doesn't matter because water only expands 9% when completely frozen. If you blow out 95+% of water to begin with it wouldn't matter at all if the residual froze because it would just expand into the empty pipe.

I got this 2 or 3 years ago to blow out my sprinklers and it works perfectly for what I use it for.

Guess I'll have to look around for alternatives that might be less expensive.
