I know there are a lot of these online but I ran into this one myself. I thought I search to see if there are any Reel to Reel tape decks on sale on Craigslist. Didn't find anything worthwhile but did see this Sony Cassette player that reminded me of a deck I used to have. I had no price so I clicked on it and this is what I found:

He wants to trade that for a statute made out of toothpicks???? Or hats made out of "found things?"

Next I did a search on "Rigol" which is a brand of economical electronic instruments. I click on the only item listed:

This dude is selling this for just $15 less than list price???? I can buy it for $399 online, shipping included and no tax. And he says he is firm on price too???

And boy does it smell like a stolen item, still in the box, cash only, etc.
