Bought an ipod off a kid at a garage sale on the weekend, he and his mom both said it worked. Plugged it in and let it charge for a bit in the car and it didn't turn on. I went back and got my money back, thank goodness.
No such luck with another item I bought, a fireplace-style heater. The sellers said it worked really well, but we got it home and it doesn't even blow air at all. Quite cheesed. I'm going to list it on kijiji for $5 and say in the ad that it may be fixable but I don't know how to do it, or it could be turned into a nice little end table for someone crafty.
I test everything before I sell it. Nothing would be more humiliating than having someone come back and say something I sold them was not functional.
