Buyer Beware Won a lot for a Jeep. Made an offer to "buy it now." After the sale, I discovered it read "located offsite," and wasn't on the premises. I wished to view it (obviously). They told me that they couldn't reveal the private parties information for me to see it. Okay. I asked the name of the outfit selling it, they told me it was something like Guillorys auto and body. Quick search on the goog, I found the selling outfit, put it in maps, headed over myself. The Jeep had no battery, and no gas. The shop attendant tried his hardest to get it running, and when it cranked it misfired like someone yanked half the spark plugs out, smoked out the exhaust pipe like a chimney, and the gas fumes permeating from under the hood were unbearable. It killed after about 6 seconds, and wouldn't start back up. "Probably just a little trash in the fuel line, from running out of gas" He told me. I said, it was advertised as a run & drive. I then requested, that they (the seller) terminate the sale on their end to avoid the fees I would incur backing out. Surprisingly enough, they agreed, however, Copart, on the other hand, weren't having it, and wanted to get paid either way. They demanded I cover the $400 termination cost regardless of which party was in the wrong. And that vehicles were inspected by staff "on-site" albeit it was never delivered to their facility, and I was responsible for checking it out, even though they wouldn't reveal to me the location. I knew it something seemed sketchy from the start, that's why they didn't have it with the rest of the vehicles, and jumped through every hoop to hide it from me. I'm glad I went with my gut and had a hunch to go and check it out. Do what I did, before the 3 days are up to pay, go to my account, then navigate to the credit card section, get your deposit/deposits back, call up your card company, put a hold on all transactions for a week, and never, ever, do business with this fly-by-night company again.
