4. Wires falling off/components falling off during transport.
5. Riggers with forklift damaged cables/pinched/ripped out wires.
6. New owner to cheap to have the machine professionally prepped for shipment, water damage, broken castings, panels ripped off, encoders ripped out, spindles damaged, rust beyond repair, forgotten manuals or parts, or simply ripped off by the seller.
I have personally witnessed every single one of these and probably more that I chose to forget.
