The thing we all need to remember is that there is nothing "wrong" with a airplane with hail damage, except that in this case, the seller has mis-represented the aircraft, and if the damage was "covered up" by bondo and repaint, then you have legal problems, especially with no log entries to back it up. If the airplane still has the dings exposed, then its up to the buyer to decide if it is worth it or not.
I've sent a bidder (who was a few seconds later the sucessful high bidder) on a hydraulic press, information on where on the net to find manuals, parts list and parts and repair info, this was an out of production press. If it had been somewhere closer than NJ, I'd considered bidding on it. Anyhow, I sent the guy a message, and he responded, so I know it can be done.
