Actually Ofer used the correct tense. If he had said " I seen" then it would have been incorrect. When he said "I've seen" that is correct English---

So we know who the really ignorant one is..

The tense is past perfect if you want to know...
He changed it.

"I've seen" is fine but then he used past tense "it was used" instead of "it was being used..." That kind of knocked the whole sentence off the rails.

Now if he had used "I saw ...it was" he'd have been fine.
Could also go with "Last time I laid eyes on....it was" The whole trick is to have the tenses cooperate instead of arguing.

Hold on, lemme see if Ofer gives a fiddler's fare-thee-well:

All I have to say is that the edit button is the poor immigrant's best friend.

Now, Marty, would you please take a long walk on a short pier.
