I'm looking for advice from those who have experience. I have a chance to pick up a used Delta 14" 1 hp bandsaw for $350. Would you do that or go for a new Grizzly for $450? Speak up, please.

I would think delta parts are easier to come by. Only one grizzly dealer.

The older Delta's are great saws.  The newer consumer ones aren't so good.  If it's an older Delta, you can't go wrong.  But, either saw will do the job.
Take a kid hunting!
