I forgot to mention that on e-bay Choice Auto is also known as North Shore Auto.

It amazes me that you have taken this very defensive high and mighty attitude, could it be that you are really just like them and it sounds like your trying to convince yourself otherwise. The fact that you are trying to justify what they did is disgusting. Let's see, how would you deal with someone who screwed you over? Yeah, I know you would accept all the responsibility right? NOT LIKELY!!!! You're an a*s for even suggesting that we somehow deserved what happened. You have no idea what I did or did not do so just keep your self serving comments to yourself. And as for you having a "good" reputation, that is subjective and probably not accurate based on how skewed your perception of thing is. I have friends in Phoenix and I be letting them know about "Paul" because obviously you're okay screwing people if they didn't do what you think they should have to protect theselves from the liars, cheaters and theives.

My righteous crap give me a break. I am telling you the truth you got screwed!Deal with it but do not categorize me with the other pieces of crap out there. God forbid you need a Lawyer because they sure would have a field day with you. The Mercedes dealership didnt sell you the car they were only trying to fix the piece of crap YOU BOUGHT and why because YOU DID NOT DO YOUR RESEARCH OR TAKE IT TO A MECHANIC BEFORE YOU PURCHASED IT. ALL OF THIS COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF YOU WOULD HAVE JUST HAD IT LOOKED AT BEFORE YOU PAID FOR IT. I would have spent $500 to have the Mercedes store inspect a used Mercedes before I paid good money for it. Next time do a little research and have a professional inspect the vehicle before you buy it and you would have known to walk away from it. Did you even ask if you could have an indepedent party inspect the vehicle? I would bet my house you didn't, and if you did and they said NO than you would have known something was fishy. Maybe if you would have done this you wouldn't be bitching about how you got taken. These are some easy steps to protect you from buying a LEMON cause God knows there are some out there. You have to take some accountability for what you didn't do to and maybe you learned a lesson.

While i appreciate your feedback, this is just the tip of the ice burg i ran into. After dealing with the unscrupulous person at CHOICE AUTO BROKERS, the rest of the nightmare WAS with the Mercedes dealership in Palm Beach. They also did a fine job of screwing us over. The incompetence of that dealership will also be acknowledged in "Rip Off Report". They were the ones who didn't even fill the wiper fluid dispenser after I had paid almost $500.00 for an inspection and maintenance and repeatedly told them that the container had not been filled. They didn't return my husband's phone calls and they couldn't even be bothered to rinse the car off where the radiator blew fluid all over my car. So please, don't even try to turn this back on me that if I would have dealt with a certain type of car dealership they would be more reputable than the other. You all give great lip service but when it comes time to do the right thing, you just see dollar signs. I will never again believe what a car salesman tells me and God help the next one I come across because he is going to be doing a lot of writing. EVERYTHING will be in writing, none of this good faith s**t that your type know nothing about but pedal very well. If you really are so concerned about how your "profession" is perceived , maybe you should start looking at your business affiliates and give them the righteous speech because I am no longer interested in listening to the crap that is coming from your mouths. VERY SERIOUSLY, LEASA

I have been in the Auto industry for almost 17 years and have been very succesfull by treating people as I wish to be treated. It is ashamed that 10% of my field that are the con artists, thieves liars etc effect the 90% that are great and take pride in what they do. I have customers that have purchased all of thier vehicles from me and who have been kind enough to refer thier friends and co workers to me for years. Its like a teacher who abuses a child; are all teachers bad No just the piece of crap that did that to a child. All of us in the auto industry are not bad people so please do not judge us by the actions of others. I am sorry that you were taken but you bought from what I call a pot lot. They do not have to warranty cars and they do give a lot of lip service. Next time try buying a Mercedes from a Mercedes Dealership not some con artist a thousand miles away from where you live. I hope it works out for you I honestly do.
