Lately I've come to the conclusion that about 50% of the people selling anything, anywhere, by any means ... are dishonest. Some in small ways, some in large ways. Some just fudging a few numbers, dates, hours, condition or back story, others plainly just trying to steal your money.

Seems to cross all generations. Knowledgeable buyers rarely get badly screwed, but jeez it just hurts my heart to see so many people that are dishonest. Where do they come from? How were they brought up? And so often WHY ... why compromise your integrity for a few dollars more, most often just petty small lies that they think will gain them 10 or 20% more for their item.

I'm a bit of a sucker when it comes to selling things ... but I can live with that, I enjoy seeing decent people getting a good deal for something they need.
