That fancy borescope I bought off Facebook Marketplace...
Found a deal on a gently used borescope for $75, the guy seemed legit and it looked brand new in the case. Got it back to the hangar, fired it up, and realized the camera lens was basically a sticker over a cheap webcam from 2005. Anyone else get burned buying used inspection gear from sketchy online listings?

Not everyone’s out to scam you. Sometimes a deal’s just too good to be real.

Is it just me or does it feel like everything online these days is a gamble? I've noticed that trend with all sorts of stuff, not just tools. People will slap a fake logo on a box of junk and call it a name brand. It's like the whole marketplace is turning into a giant game of "spot the scam." What did you end up doing with that thing?
