Years ago I bought a kitchen range from the Sears outlet store for 1/2 off because it had a scratch on the side, saving me over $400 and got new warranty. When unloading it manually by myself at home it got away from me, snatched out of my grasp by a random gust of gravity and crashed into the corner of the tailgate on the way to the driveway putting a huge dent and scratch in it.

Luckily, the stove fit in between cabinets and neither the little Sears scratch or the moon crater I put in the other side were visible when installed. All's well that ends well.

I gotta get me one of those decimal + fractions calipers.
