Hey Swanee, We winge about being over regulated here in Australia (draconian speed fines, noise police, zero tolerance in some states etc) but at least there are very strong laws admistered by the aptly named Office of Fair Trading to pin down unscroupulous dealers like the dealer above.

Dave, we're over-regulated too in some areas but that's not one of 'em. Be warned there are scalawags and scoundrels everywhere ready to help you lighten up that burdensome wallet, and nothing is ever done unless they cross the line into criminal fraud, and then the ones who can afford good lawyers usually weasel out. This is where PT Barnum (or somebody like that) said "nobody ever went broke overestimating the gullibility of the public."
