Re: Be careful what you buy and where you buy it - Nothing new here. The ancient Romans had it pegged long, long ago: Caveat Emptor.
For the non Latin speakers:
said by The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language :caveat emptor
caveat emptor (kA´vê-àt´ èmp´tôr´) noun
The axiom or principle in commerce that the buyer alone is responsible for assessing the quality of a purchase before buying.
[From Latin, let the buyer beware : caveat, imperative of cavêre, to beware + emptor, buyer.]
