I've taken two things now and on both occasions the items didn't work properly. I'm wondering whether this is the norm or did I just get unlucky?

Hi lislaw,
Occasionally, Givers post items and state "Suitable for Parts Only." These ads are acceptable but as you know, JumbleTown is not really for recycling items, but for life-cycling/re-using them. Obviously, Givers should state clearly the condition of the item they wish to pass on. If a slight repair is needed, that should be stated. Items should be capable of being life-cycled/re-used; if they aren't, the Giver should bring them to a recycling plant -- they shouldn't post it on JumbleTown. Givers who knowingly pass on faulty items or write inaccurate descriptions of items have no place on JumbleTown.
