I have a small 26 gallon compressor in my garage at home, it is about 15 years old and getting very tired.
I start my search on Craigslist for a little bigger compressor.
I find a used 60 gal, 130psi with 14 cfm (likely overrated) for $250. She agreed to $200 if I came on to get it.
It's a US General from Harbor Freight, but for the garage it would be quite adequate........
She tells me it for the works PERFECTLY, has barely a scratch on it.
I call up my bud to help me get it home ('cause my Dmax is still brok),
I put $50 worth of fuel in his Fooorrr, (hell I can't say the word) and we take off.
We get there, see it from the driveway and I was very happy with the appearance...........................then she says..............
"The pressure switch was broken during transport and we don't have 220 to verify it runs, sorry about that"!!!!!!!!!!!!
I nearly went balistic, a 40 minute ride (one way) with a guarantee that it is in excellent shape and works great!!!!!! I tell her I don't want it, SHE gets pissed that I wasted HER time!!
My asswipe bud laughed all the way home!!
He doesn't know it yet, but I will give him his cell phone back tomorrow:roflmao::roflmao:
OK, I feel better now.
