Talk about a rip off and a guy who runs a business like a crack head. I brought my car (a Ferrari 348) to the AUTO TOY STORE, West Berlin, NJ to sell on consignment for a $1,500.00 fee in October of 2006. This place markets itself as a "high end" dealer of exotic cars and motorcycles. They sold my car in January of 2007 and took over a month and half to send me a difference of funds for the payoff. This is all after an ton of excuses about the owner not being around to sign the check. It has been over four months and they have not paid off the money owned to my lein company (Capital One). Two checks they sent bounced and this is after I went down to the dealership with local West Berlin cops to report the car stolen because they could not produce the car or the payoff. I am currently in a law suit with them and the civil court to get the money and selling fee back.

I will give you a feel for how they do business. The owner Al Sciubba, dope smoking manager Andrew Weinstein and dumb as a broom stick overweight sales schmuck Domenick Paparone are your stero type no class used car sales people. I mailed a few certified letters to try to resolve the matter and they wanted no part of it. When I met the owner after I showed up with the cops he promised to pay off the lien with Capitail One. He wrote out a company check in our presence and informed us that this would be sent to Capital One via Fed Ex. He wrote out a second check for $900.00 to reimburse my wife and I for the last car payment we made directly for February 2007.

When my wife went to cash the check the following dayshe was told by the teller that there was insufficient funds. She then contacted Mr. Sciubba shortly afterwards and he stated that he "wrote the check from the wrong account." He then requested that my wife come to the dealership and he provided her with $900.00 in cash. I received a call from Capital One a week later stating that the check for $42,698.12 (posted on March 12, 2007) had bounced that Al Sciubba sent in. I called the dealership and informed Domenick P. that we would be filing a civil case to recover the funds.

That same night (Thursday, March 29 2007) I received a call from the owner Al Sciubba on my cell phone and he stated that "there was no reason to get attorneys involved and that I just came into this thing at a really bad time." He further stated that "he would make good on this and take care of everything tomorrow (Friday, March 30, 2007) and I would receive proof via Fed Ex that everything would be taken care of." Bottom line - these guys are crooks and have major cash flow issues....and they wonder why they get the rep as scum bag used car salesman????

Do you think Al Sciubba sounds like a crook? Give him a call on his cell phone at (609) 670-1488.

The contact/cell number contained in the first E-mail has been disconected and is no longer active. Per the owner's contact with me today he has asured me that payment for oustanding fiance will be taken care within one week. He has conducted himself in a professional manner to attempt to resolve the matter. Although the matter has not been resolved to date, the owner of said business listed in the complaint is not ducking any issues and has pledged to make right any outstanding issues.
