Somehow I forked over the cash for my Shadow and didn't notice, until after I tipped her on her back, that the bottom of the cab was swollen and deformed with moisture damage.

Happy ending: I was so pissed it sat in storage for a year and a half, and by the time I got it out, the concurrent price inflation made it a good deal after all. And in the meantime I had found a fine Shadow empty cab to swap it into for fifty bucks.

Quoted from chocky909:

Putting a 50% deposit down on a WOZECLE instead of buying a NIB TRON LE.

I'm glad I did both!

Quoted from zarco:

My rookie mistake was fixing a dead machine that was for sale.
The seller then doubled the price. Now I don't even plug in or
test machines that are advertised 'as-is' or not working.

I hear that, as long it has a non-working price!
