Good for you! That Featherweight and the table didn't deserve to be owned by someone who didn't know that they were so wonderful.

hahahaaaaaaaa. now thats funny.. NO way would my hubby ever sell something that was mine- Hes not insensitive.. Not to mention his bass boat would be on craigslist in a heartbeat if he ever did!!!! lol... We dont know the whole tale ladies & gents- maybe the couple who originally bought it has a re-sale shop and they BOTH agreed to make a profit.. Maybe it was HIS hobby and the wife made claimes as to new ownership on his behalf... Either way you got a great deal.. and obviously it was meant for you to be the proud owners not them or he never would of showed up..

I took what you wrote this way too and I have to say if this is how it transpired...I think it was underhanded and unfair. If I were that wife I would be angry to the point of tears. Just sayin'.

You coveted what was not yours! You went behind the wife's back by talking to her husband, in all probablity, knowing he didn't know what his wife had bought. You were sneaky, coniving and underhanded in what you did. It was just WRONG, WRONG, WRONG. You didn't go to the wife who bought the machine in the first place because you KNEW she got a bargain. You will answer for this. Hope you enjoy your machine, knowing you got it in such a deceitful manner.
