As the originator of several "Did I buy another repo" post I feel compelled to respond. I, like Washington Chief am a collector. I can be rather aggressive in pursuing online items. I have no problem buying a "buy it now" sign with dubious heritage on the outside chance I got something great. By posting here before the buy you show your hand to other equally aggressive collectors. You then take the chance that the item will be bought before someone post a definitive answer. I myself don't care if anyone likes what I buy if it is original.I do care if it is not. That's what makes this a great site. I can roll the dice and find out here if I crapped out. If it's a repo sold as original I contact the seller and try to work it out just as W.C. did. W.C. used this site and post to gain knowledge about a petro\auto item he purchased. Rick Brown used it to try and pass judgement on W.C.'s motive and make a snide comment about my past post. Oh well,
you can't please everyone so sometimes you just have to please yourself.
