As a camper I have a power station in my car and I will check anything electrical while I'm still at the car boot sale. If it don't work, me and my power station (proof) are straight back to the stall for a refund. I have had to do it a few times. I always ask the seller if it doesn't work can I get a refund. If they say no, I don't buy it. If they say yes I tell them I'm going to my car to test it.
