What to look for when buying?

Hey all,
thanks to everyone here for helping. so, now that I've decided to get a spree, I need to start looking.

yeah, not cool. I know that when emotions run high we sometimes say things we don't mean. all of us; black, white, scooter thief, non-scooter thief, *, straight, christian, muslim, pro-whatever, anti-whatever, need to cut each other some slack. everyone makes mistakes.
but 3 scoots, man, I'd be ...
