Should all smokers be taken out and shot?

Yes, you could sell the remains, but if you sell a house on land but burn it before settlement, then you will have committed a crime and you will not be able to deliver on the sale. In Australia a product sold must be fit for the purpose for which it is sold. A lens such as the one Rich "picked up", if he paid for it, would fail the "fit for the purpose" test. -- N |

Can't you even read, troll? I said I could burn it to the ground FIRST, and then sell the charred remains. If someone was so inclined to want to buy the charred remains that's their choice. BTW: I never buy a home where the home is the only value. The land has to be worth at least three times the cost of the home by itself. So even if the house does burn to the ground the sale is still worth more than the original price of the home. The value of the land on my most favorite home has now quadrupled in just eight years. The house could fly away in a tornado and the property would still be worth more than four times the original selling price. A home must have acreage, and lots of it. The mailbox at the end of the driveway is over three football fields away from the front door, and the house is near the front of the property, just to give you an idea. Enjoying your mommy's urban basement much? Try trolling someone else in an attempt to fill that desperate need for attention that you have. |

No. Do you have a problem with honesty? If the previous owner chooses to smoke, that is his free choice. But if he sells it, the hidden defect of the accumulated smoke exposure should be revealed. Otherwise he is misleading prospective buyers. |

The whole lens was coated with it. When I cleaned the entire front element surface, sure enough, the correct coating colour was revealed. It took an hour to clean the thing.

Depends upon their free choice of selling it as fitting the description of what they are selling. Such descriptions of it's condition as "good" is not as germane as calling it "good condidtion for its' usage parameters" Further inquiry or description of the condition of such a thing shoud have been of tantamount importance as to the new owner's intent to use it as a lens rather than a dust collector of nicotine-tobbacco smokers or doorstop wedger or paperweight holder.
