I have never sold, nor will I ever sell a powerplus tool. I don't sell tools at all. It was just an example.
But if I did, and you bought one, it would be your own fault.
60$ does not buy you a quality drill, nor does it buy you a quality razor + strop + hone.
TheMajor will not have known this, just as I didn't know that you don't store a loom strop under tension or that you don't lift the spine while stropping. Most of us ended up here after finding out the hard way that something was not right.
Consider it a rite of passage :)
Most sellers are ignorant; Not malicious.
