If you made the trade then you have no one to blame but yourself.

Sucks but the reality is the scene is full of kids that are liars, cheats and scam artists and don't think about anything further away than their next 6-pack of hipster PBR.

My advise, set up an alter-ego on here, wait for him to want to buy/sell something here. Arrange a meet, jump out of the bushes with a ski-mask and beat that ass. But maybe that's just me.
You're right it was my fault for not really knowing, then again all I did was glance at them and they looked close enough without having top hats. But I only glanced at them though. It's my fault for wanting to believe there is still decent people left. I just thought about needing more space at my house and hoped he needed tools, and was only thinking about more power on e85 lol.

And good idea lol. I bet he's going to be worried about meeting people in person now for a while. Truthfully $1000 isn't worth going to jail over. Plus that was almost a 3 hour drive for me.. Not worth it lol

I'm just going to throw this out there, you do realize I said craftsman right? It's not like I took him my matco triple bank box.. And considering I don't have a job, and the car is my daily driver.. Sacrifices have to be made correct? It's not like I lost money on the welder, or even broke even. I did learn a lesson, buy new. Just because I sell one thing for another doesn't make me dumb. I got rid of craftsman tools, got a brand new matco triple bank, filled with snap-on and a couple of matco tools. Bought a miller diversion, sold it. A couple months later bought a syncrowave. Sold it, a couple months later bought a Dynasty. You see a trend? Out with the lower level things, on to better things.

All I wanted to do was warn people, I've already faced the facts and just wanted to warn other people that he's full of shit. Can't blame me for trying to look out for others. Generally I don't buy used because of not trusting people, I just don't like spending money on my s2k.. lol
