i suppose they had to have new, and didn’t consider used. whilst i tend to abhor those who take advantage of others, especially our service people, there comes a certain level of responsibility. go in for a washer/dryer, leave with all kinds of extras, is it really their faulty? entirely?
This has been a problem around military bases forever. It is quite a leadership challenge. The problem is that the slick merchants/lenders know full well how easy it is to get their money from a service member. Some of the slicksters are even former military themselves, which really makes me see red.
