<p>I agree but, just as an aside, - I bought two cars sight-unseen (still have one of them).</p>
<p>And paid way more than a quater of a million dollars for my house almost sight-unseen. This was during the days of intense competitive bidding and we made an offer about two minutes after arriving. </p>
<p>(We did get into a bit of a bidding war but eventually won out. Still in the house with no serious regrets.)</p>
