Are you kidding me?!?!

Good deals on Craigslist seem to be very few and far between in North Texas.  This person is listing a LIncoln AC-225 for nearly twice ($750.00) what a new one sells for. "would like to get $750.00 obo".   You gotta be kidding me!    I doubt it's a typo because $750.00 is in ad title and the ad itself.  http://dallas.craigslist.org/mdf/grd/1629309640.html
Reply:That's why it says "obo"
Reply:I saw one like that on CL last year. It said "Antique AC welder". Guess thats why he felt it was worth 2-3X that of new! Just saw a beat POS one at the used tool place on consignment for $190. I have to go stop in and see Allan, and tell him not to hold his breath trying to sell it at that price, when on CL they go for $50-$100 in much better shape..No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size.

Reply:Heck we gave one away when cleaning out my dads shop. It was over 20 years old and looked the same as a new one.Stolen and clueless is a good bet.
