Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I paid in full $4695 for a 300cc Hart Cart utv. Linhia Yamaha 300cc utv junk. I purchase one and still to this day have not received the utv. It has been almost 12 weeks.

I asked for a full refund and Shawn Hart rebutted saying it shipped the same day I requested the refund. After waiting 2 more weeks, i finally called my credit card and had them do a chargeback.

Shawn threaten to sue me for failure to purchase the utv after 3 months of him having my money.I have talked with several other "customers" of Hart Marketing Inc, and they also have had the same issues.

This is a interent scam.

Don't buy from hartmarketinginc.com www.hartcarts.com bestpriceutvs.com or shawnhartmarketing.com

I almost last $5k

I recently bought a Hart Cart and realized all this stuff about a lawsuit after I made the purchase. I figured I would not get my product so called with concerns. I was assured of a date and it came and went. I called again and got a ship date and it did ship and I have received the cart and I am very satisfied, for the money you can not go wrong.I would just like to add that if Mr. Hart is such a crook, how come he has a great record with the BBB ?? The only problem I can see is that he has a hard time keeping them in stock.I think there is a little more to the lawsuit than people are willing to tell, but no matter how you look at it I am very pleased with my purchase !!

Prosecuters office did acknowledge reports filed against Hart Marketing Inc there investigator had been reviewing the case but with no outcome at this time. Several Filings have been made and no verdict in suit at this time. I saw somewhere that was a class action suit getting started against Hart Marketing Inc. If anyone has more solid info, I would like the info posted so I may contact the plaintiff in the class action suit.

Jealously is an ugly animal. To all who read this response: This is a simple matter of "sore loser" syndrome. I have personally built my company from scratch to what it is today. We have never cheated anyone in 14 years of business, and do not intend to start. 100% of these allegations were fabricated by an individual who is broke, desperate, untruthful, and obviously jealous of our continued success. This person is not smart enough to know that his unwarranted actions are being traced and that he will be held personally responsible for his actions. We have sold 1000's of products through various mediums including the internet, and have had not one complaint to date, until we shut down a would be competitor who was working out of a phone booth 15 miles from my office, and trying to steal our clients through fraudulent acts including theft, and criminal conversion. We maintain a "bricks and mortar" business with several full time employees for both sales and service. We have real overhead and pay real taxes. Unlike non-existent internet business people we accept full responsibility for our actions and product. We also maintain product liability insurance to protect ourselves and our consumers from defective products. Anyone who knows me and/or my family personally will tell you that I have worked hard to honor my word and to treat others how I want to be treated. This uneducated person (you know who you are) should be in jail with his brother for theft and fraud. I personally invite all who read this post to call me toll free at 1-800-207-2670 or email me at [email protected] for any questions or concerns. We are proud of our products, and services and are not afraid to tell you. I will offer a $10,000 cash reward to anyone who can give this mysterious poster a real name and contact information so that I can speak with him. I am 100% convinced that this is a frivolous accusation and I am obviously willing to prove it. I am ashamed that any anonymous person can post malicious accusations about a BBB company in good standing without any screening whatsoever. We offer a free no questions asked money back guarantee good for 7 days after your purchase. Personal note to poster AKA "scammedbyshawnhart": You are absolutely no threat to me or my business. At some point you will learn that you cannot stop a winner. I feel sorry for those who believe in you and your words. You obviously have nothing better to do with your time. I will pray for you and your negative actions in an attempt to destroy the foundation of our good name.

Warning to all, Parts are not available through hartmarketinginc.com shawnhartinc.com hartcarts.com or any other place this Hart Marketing guy owns. It's a total scam. Sure he can sell you a cheap made utv, but when it breaks he can't get parts. I have 2 utvs i purchased from him. One has a cracked gear box, can't get the part and it's been 3 months waiting. Other is broken transmission housing straight out of the crate. He claims i did it when I have pictures of the thing broke and still factory bolted to the crate with the plastic and all still on the thing. If you call, ask for Shawn Hart, See if he will actually answer your phone call if there is a problem. I bet he will talk to you to sell one, but when it comes to parts or issues, he sends you to a place in Winchester, Indiana for service, then this guy says No parts, he has to order them. Be very very carefull. We found out after our purchase and ripoff that he owes money to everyone in the world. The IRS is after him for fruad from my sorces, there's a another person that paid for a utv that still hasn't received them. He's been waiting for 3 months and can't get his money back. We have contacted the local sherriff's dept and they have started there own investigation. With there help, we may be able to get our money back.
