Rant: That $40 website I thought was a scam actually saved my trip

I needed a specific bus schedule for a tiny town in rural Vermont and everything online was outdated. Found this ugly single-page site run by some guy named Dave for 40 bucks, figured I'd get ripped off but was desperate. He emailed me a PDF within 2 hours with exact times and even the driver's name. Has anyone else paid for information that actually worked out?

Wait, so you paid some random guy named Dave forty bucks and he actually followed through? Feels like we've been trained to expect disappointment from sketchy websites, but secretly I'm kind of impressed.

Trained to expect disappointment" - story of my life, honestly.
