The first time I heard of wish.com was from the same fellow  
about 2 years ago - regarding another "device" that didn't seem  
to work right.  The listings all seemed "too good to be true"  
to me.  WHY he settles for wish.com when there are more  
reliable, trustworthy domestic places like bestbuy.ca or  
staples.ca to choose from ..boggles my mind.

The fellow seems to have a way of owning crap or junking  
something that used to work quite well. I've ended up being his  
final goto person to "fix" things: replacement ram upgrades,  
software issues (viruses, updates, restore-points, etc.)

Most recently he's asked me to look at of those all-in-one  
iMacs that a previous friend had owned.  I remember seeing that  
iMac in fine operational order by the original owner. After  
this next guy gets it, it looks like it was dragged through a  
bomb zone.  The iMac doesn't boot quite right. I haven't looked  
it at length, but I dread the task.  But I digress..
