Title: Another craigslist bargain.

That looks curiously like an overpriced garden shed. No rust they say yet there are broken windows and its outside. Thus there has to be rust.

I've always wanted to take one of those and bury it in the ground, to make a cheap doomsday bunker.

Someone posted a picture of a buried school bus as a tornado shelter here on the board one time.  It looked very safe, and well done.

At $450, if one welded some steel over the missing windows, that would not be a bad shed. The price is about what you'd get from a scrappie selling it too.

Personally, I'd build a shed from wood for less though.

Yes it does resemble it!
But this one I took just south of Erie, PA on my way to an Amish community.

Wonder if the driver saw that pothole?

You'd be amazed the bad driving I see. Today on my schoolbus run I saw 4 car crashes.
