Fuck! I thought I was careful, but damn it, I should have been more thorough.
I needed a tv for the apartment so I could watch the world cup. Found a few online on Craigslist. Went to one, had a 32 inch, worked fine, looked ok. Get it back to the house, damn thing is busted. The instrument panel pushes in every time I hit the power button, the front cover is falling away from the back, and I dropped $50 on it.

Fuck Craigslist, but fuck me too :flamed:. I should have seen it coming, they were not suspicious of me at all and looked like the beginnings of meth-heads.

Only good thing is I know what to look for now, but that's an expensive fuckin lesson.
 
That's why ur sposed to kick the tires and whatnot.

I went to buy a used car from a guy who works for a major dealership, at his house. Drove it around the block, hooked up the laptop and OBD connection and checked for errors. Thing had misfires and all kinds of other trouble codes. Checked the transmission fluid and found metal shavings. Thing looked great, and seemed to run ok during the test drive. Good thing I went a bit further than the typical test drive.
 
Yeah, made the rookie error of letting them give the demonstration. Should have touched it myself, would have immediately realized how fucked it was. Oh well, I get another shot this Saturday. If I have the money to take it.
 
Belive me, you're not missing anything. Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz! Tune in to it if you want to hear something really annoying. Damn, I hate that noise.
