Hi there, I found a nice travel trailer for sale and was thinking of purchasing it but the seller says the vehicle is at a consinment center.  The place is called MetricsAuto Consinment and Sales.  Has anyone used these people or heard of these people?

Never heard of them. However, I did find them mentioned on the RIp-Off Report site along with Craigslist and no verifiable location or phone along with what is stated to be multiple fake reviews.

 

So. Sounds like a scam to me.

 

Is shipping and money back guarantee mentioned? If so, even more likely a scam.

Sounds like a bunch of Hogwash to me.

 

If you can't inspect the vehicle, or send a third party over to inspect the vehicle, then the vehicle does not exist, and it is a SCAM.

 

Even if that consignment place exists, you have no proof at all that the vehicle is actually there, and if a consignment place has the vehicle, why the heck is the owner selling the vehicle, the consignment place should be, that's why he/she is paying them.

 

Makes no sense, and if it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it's a Duck.

 

No legitimate seller sells a vehicle to a complete stranger for thousands less than the wholesale price a local dealer would pay.


No legitimate seller offers free shipping, an inspection period, and free return shipping.


No legitimate seller attempts to sell a vehicle on another site and says that Ebay will be handling the transaction.

Ebay does not have agents.
Ebay does not have a warehouse.
Ebay is not a shipping company, they ship nothing.
Ebay has nothing to do with other sites.
Ebay does not condone the use of Western Union, Money Packs, Gift Cards, MoneyGram or any other unsafe method of paying.
Ebay is not an escrow company, they do not hold anyone's money.

If you see a vehicle on the Internet that you are interested in purchasing, make arrangements with the seller to inspect the vehicle and the title, or hire a third party to inspect it for you. If the seller states for any reason that the vehicle can't be inspected, then walk away, the vehicle does not exist.

So how do we tell that you're not one of their competitors posting a bogus review?
