I haven't seed a bootstrap style copy of a pruned blockchain and not sure if one exists. I'm not sure how feasible it is to share a copy of the pruned chain as it will also depend on the number of MB that each person allots for raw block & undo data. I suppose it might be possible to bootstrap this if both the copies where using the same pruning configuration but I'm not 100% sure. |

I would not mind one thats pruned at default 550 , even if its months old, it would still be better than trying to make one myself from scratch |

Isn't a pruned node personalised to your wallet? I got the impression that it needed to keep your unspent historic transactions, as well as a number of the latest blocks?

No. The only data pertaining to your wallet is stored in the wallet.dat file. The pruned blockchain is simply the block files and a database so that Bitcoin Core knows what has been pruned and what has been verified so far. The blockchain data and the wallet data are completely separate. |

Just to make sure you are aware of what you are doing: If you download the pre verified blockchain data from someone else, you have to trust them to not have modified the data. |
Im not really here, its just your imagination.
