The miracle of the microwave

After my Dad and I had done enough tinkering to realize that the "No user serviceable parts inside" sticker on the back was more than just a suggestion, the microwave officially died Saturday afternoon:
We resigned ourselves to the fact that we'd have to buy a new one and went to RC Willey because a quick internet search revealed that they had the best price. An overly pushy salesperson there informed us that they were out of stock and because I was too impatient to wait 2 days for another to arrive, we headed to Lowe's instead to buy one for $10 more.

Tori wanted to stop at DI on the way and guess what we found waiting for us when we arrived:

A nearly identical microwave in its original protective film wrapping for $35
