Facebook Marketplace FAIL? Looks can be deceiving - John Deere GX255

This is a personal buying-experience story, not a spec review: the owner recounts buying a used GX255 with Power Flow bagging cart off Facebook Marketplace, discovering a missing deck tensioner and spindle damage, and taking it to a John Deere dealer for repairs (~$500) with the Power Flow itself still not functional. It includes brief mowing/leaf footage but focuses on used-tractor buying pitfalls, repair costs, and whether the deal was worthwhile.

An owner-operator documenting his own used-tractor purchase and repair journey on his personal property, not a dealer or technical expert.
