Misleading Info from Sellers

[Bill Garamella]

"What a disaster! Found what was described as a "very good
condition" .... All looked great...Turns out the pictures are a few
years old."

This reminds me of a few Match.Com experiences I had before I met
Lisa!

When we started looking for a Bird we drove a couple hours to see a
1992 PT40. This was after seeing photos and having a detailed
conversation with the seller. It was advertised as "you won't find a
nicer 92 anywhere". When we arrived we almost did not get out of the
car. I'm too polite Although the interior seemd pretty good, the
outside was a real mess. Paint was terrible, all tires badly rotted,
batteries leaking onto rusted trays all gaskets dried out and on and
on it must have been rotting in a back yard for some time....
seriously, I think the seller was delusional.
