I think you misread. The washer doesn’t work and they want $400 for the washer that doesn’t work. I’ve got a broken drier that would cost $300 for the part to fix it if it was still available which it’s not. The only thing that doesn’t match is the picture and I’m reading that as incompetence as they have even a model number for the washer.
Well, it could be either way, the picture not matching what they’re trying to sell, or their listing didn’t match what the picture is.
It’s obvious that something is wrong with the listing. And the number does match a washer, not a dryer. I was erring in the side of them using the right picture of what they intend to sell, but crossing up how they wrote the listing.
But, it’s definitely possible they just fat fingered the wrong picture and are, indeed, idiots that think they’ll get 400 for a broken appliance that is difficult to get parts for. You gave to get lucky with that shit and find someone (usually on eBay, or local swaps) that has the same model to pull a working part from, and even that’s assuming that you can identify what part you need in the first place. Some of these bullshit appliances with unnecessary gimmicks are a pain in the ass to diagnose because it usually comes down to the entire board being borked, which is why I despise this kind of appliance lol.
I’m stuck with a similar dryer (our washer is all mechanical, so it’s easier to diagnose and fix), and I know damn good and well it’s trash if it goes out.
Which is all tangential.
Point being that it wasn’t a misread, it was benefit of the doubt.
