Should I Feel Bad ?

Post by beatnik »

Picked up a radial arm saw with a little dust collector for 125 this weekend. I had done research and already knew I was going to claim 100 for the recall on the saw when I bought it, making the cost for the collector all of 25 bucks. Already got the recall tag on it's way this morning.

Bad? No

Guilty? No

Devious? Absolutely!











Lack of knowledge is a terrible burden to bear.;)

Your lucky. I tried the same thing a few years back and it turned out the machine had already been issued the refund so mine didn't qualify.

So I'm devious. :mad: When you're broke you find ways.

Yeah, I gambled on the saw. It's not in real good shape, but I could have gone through and used it if I was stuck with it.

Don't feel bad knowledge is power. You took the risk and were rewarded. :rolleyes:
