The seller said he checked and it had to do with the battery going flat before he replaced it

It may be from a battery issue, but there are other potential sources as well. Normally, we would clear it and see if it returns before becoming concerned on a car in use, but I would be very circumspect about buying a car with the code active. You have to ask yourself why the current owner did not clear it if all it is was a bad battery..........
