Payout cut-off

sk66rc @sk66rc (4250) • United States 1 May 13

things to never buy used

thatsjvl @jvincent_129 (4994) • Philippines 30 Apr 13

Buying used saves a lot. But some previously owned items could require costly repairs down the line. Some just are not worth buying. What are these things that you have in mind?
