Juts happened to my... kinda. Purchased an Atari 65XE and was told it was new and fully working. Picked it up at a location mutual (walmart near where this person lives but I don't have their address). Get home and it is dead. Calls to seller gets nothing. I guess at least I have a $50 + gas money door stop. My last message to this person was hope he feels good about himself and his family must be proud of him.
Karma can be a bitch so legal action, no need. The cost of something like that is more than your $50. Chalk it up to the way it goes or if you know ninjutsu, silently sneak into his home one night and get your $50 back. Or do something worse. :hammer:
These crooks will get it 3 fold in the end as karma can be a tough cooky on those that are asses.

Well I would of just told you it was sold as is, since it's 25 year old electronics, but his reply is BS! You can use the case/keyboard and buy a beat up one and restore it. Or have someone on atariage repair it for you while upgrading to to 320k !!
