Nemo,

There are some real dirtbags out there, that's for sure. My sister-in-law was married to a marine with equally low morals. I also recently read the paperwork my father wrote in the 1960s when he sent one of his "boys" to the brig, so I know military slimeballs DO exist.

Your experience reminds me of something that happened to me in California, involving a computer I bought at a garage sale. I asked the woman there if she knew what was wrong with it. It was too cheap, so I knew it wouldn't be working. She said she didn't know. I decided that, regardless of the problem, the salvage value of the other parts made it a worthwhile purchase. When I got it home, would you believe that EVERY component in that machine was bad? That is, the motherboard, the power supply, the hard drive, the floppy drive, the network card, the CD drive and the memory. The whole thing was pieced together from broken parts. And they had the nerve to sell it without telling me what they'd done! They're lucky I didn't come back and put a brick through their window. Believe me, the thought crossed my mind - but I think I'd already forgotten where it was. (Back then, when I went to garage sales, I made a day of it.)

I learned my lesson cheap. I think I was scammed for less than fifty dollars. Yours is far worse. I'm sorry about that.
