Rules for buying anything:

1. If it looks like a really great deal and the seller isn't someone you
know that owes you big time, be suspicious, very suspicious.

The brother-in-law that you got the great job for might want to return
the favor, but why would a stranger offer you a "great deal"?

2. If the seller trys to pressure you in any way with things like "only a
fool would pass up this opportunity" or "I have three other buyers so you
have to act now", run away.

If it is such a great deal, there will be lots of potential buyers; why
would the seller care who buys it?

3. If the seller has any problems with you or a third party inspecting
anything related to the item, run away.

People with something to hide don't want you to look too closely.

4. If the seller "just can't seem to find right now" any documentation that
should accompany the sale, run away.

It takes time to prepare phoney documents.
