Am I a bad person for buying an absolute steal?
Post Body

I picked up a mint-conditon Land Rover LR3 TDV6 HSE yesterday for the equivalent of $500 via FB marketplace.

Previous owner stated no power, black smoke, lowered suspension, and faulty transmission & wanted it gone as scrap.

Stealership apparently quoted him in the region of $4,000 to rectify.

I had planned to use it for spares (I already have one).

However, less than 30 minutes after I started tinkering with it this morning, I have fixed all of the issues at no cost. (EGR valve stuck & Turbo hose not connected.)

Now I intend to put it back up for sale at at least 10x the value.

It is highly likely the previous owner will see my advert.

Should I feel guilty? Or is this just how the game works?
