I almost feel guilty taking advantage of those sorts of people. Almost. But never quite fully.

Yeah, I've scored some excellent deals over the years in those scenarios as well. Bought a $2000 pool heater (that was only a year or two old) for $75 3 years ago because a lady couldn't get it to light properly all the time without fiddling with it for an hour. Someone told her it was probably scrap and she should just replace it.

Needed a $15 thermocouple, still works great to this day.
Sigh.
I never get those deals. But on the flip side I've sold some stuff as a pile of junk to some guys who thinks they can resurrect it.

"yeah, I took it apart and..."
"Probably just needs a carb cleaning. I'll give you what you're asking."
I'm exaggerating, but you get the gist.
