Warning on car importing businesses

(1/3) > >>

Sean:
IF you are intending to import a car from the USA be cautious on your selection of importing company.

I suggest you read one unfortunate story, still unfolding, for a MOCA member.

thanks for the heads up but i'm sure anyone in this club knows the right guy to import a car!

Steve:
I read that complete 4 page story
WHY would you decide to buy a project car ........send someone that far (4500 miles)to look at it to verify its condition THEN after sending the money across decide that the car is not for you ???????? THAT should have been decided WAY before sending money across to buy the car !

I actually think i feel sorry for the guy stuck in the states more than the guy who reneged on a purchase
importer would have already had container etc sorted to bring everything in to Aus and then had to hold up other peoples cars/cargo all because someone got cold feet on their purchase AND  explain to the seller that the purchaser from Aus had simply "changed his mind"

Internet forums are a great tool .........however personally they are also great for spreading crap as well !
yes $18000 is a lot of money so BEFORE committing /sending money overseas be sure it is what you want !!!!!!!

How many people have dealt with this importer in the past ??????? he was recommended from the Moca forums so i assume he has brought other cars in for members of that club

think that there is a LOT more to this story than meets the eye ,possibly on BOTH sides !

roadhound:
YEs YES  stick with importers you know even though there pricey
youll get a better car .sometimes it doesnt work out and dont look for a car under niagra falls or sleepy towns of wisconsin theres plenty in calif..better still go yourself its cheap enough

usmusclecars:
The MOCA site has now removed this thread, to much going on I think!
