Call me anything you want but how does Craigslist play in this, where is the personal accountability? Craigslist is an online classified they don't have any dog the fight IMO. When a person buys something they should exercise the due diligence of inspecting the item nobody is twisting your arm to buy and you always have the option of buying new where the higher price insures that you are protected against untimely failure. I bought a Volvo last month that broke a valve with in two weeks BFD I got what I paid for I don't hold it against the seller, I went cheap and did not have a pre purchase inspection done....my bad.

If you ask me this is a text book case of poor me, what does a person expect out of a $40 lawnmower...I hope not much.
