I've done that before too, though not as bad. It's embarassing. :)

+1 ^ that happened to me once, on a used car I was thinking of buying. Told the owner, hey look what just happened, he didn't look too surprised, he just shook his head and said "do yourself a favor, run " hehehe, didn't have to tell me twice :laugh:

why?
