So, today I sold the old washing machine for $100. As far as I knew, it worked. Buyer just called me to tell me it won't work right.

WTF? Damn it.

Responses:

Did you run it for him when he picked it up to show him that it worked? If so, he is SOOL. -- nm - Spawn Mar 6, 21:07 6
- No, no way to hook up the water to it - Beryllium (iPhone) Mar 6, 21:10 5
  - Ouch. -- nm - Spawn Mar 6, 21:12 4
    - I just talked to him, and he says the spin cycle works (so the motor is fine), it's the logical progression between wash modes that is causing a fault - Beryllium (iPhone) Mar 6, 21:20 2
      - Eh, that is good enough. If it was dead, I would be concerned but you should be in the clear. -- nm - Spawn Mar 6, 21:21 1
        
        And at $100, there's a lot of wiggle room for repairs and still being cheaper than new -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Mar 6, 21:28
    - The buyer's screwed. He accepted it with the "to the best of my knowledge" disclaimer. - TWuG Mar 6, 21:15
I mean, who knows what would break it. It's a six year old front-loader. Maybe sticking it sideways in his truck did it. -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Mar 6, 21:06 1
- Google that and see. If sop, there is your defense. -- nm - Spawn Mar 6, 21:13
