If I could title this experience, it would be "Nightmare on Tom Street"
We bought a Alpine 5th wheel (used), unseen, and online from Tom's Camperland in Mesa, AZ. We paid up front and in full. Originally told it would be a 2 week turnaround. At the 2 week mark, WE had to call to get the status and then we were told it was not ready and they would need another 2 weeks, but they said they would arrange to have it delivered to us in Las Vegas. The day before it was set to be delivered, we got a call from Robert (salesman) that it was still not ready because of parts delays. Let me just say, they never once initiated a call to us. WE always had to call them to get any sort of update. No matter who we spoke with, they would point the finger at another department. No one would take any responsibility. Due to our frustration with this experience, my husband (who owns his own business) and I, took a day off, to drive to Mesa, AZ from Las Vegas, and, when we got there, they were surprised to see us and, yet again, the trailer was still not ready. We stayed the entire day at their shady ass dealership (8 hours) so they could address the myriad of repairs they said needed to be done. We dealt with Robert and the service manager (can't remember his name, but he was very patronizing, talks a great game but doesn't deliver, and is a complete douche). Once they claimed the repairs were done and the trailer was ready, we took possession of it and went on our way. When we finally got the trailer home in Las Vegas and began inspecting, we noticed the repairs they claimed they had done, were in fact not done. Additionally, we found more issues, so we took it to a local shop to have them fixed. For example, the hot water heater wasn't even wired or hooked up and appeared to have a hole in it. The entire roof needed to be redone/recoated, which they claimed to have done, but never did. Multiple wiring issues. Several thousand dollars later, we finally have the trailer we should have received from Tom's Camperland. This has been a 7 month ordeal. While I understand I purchased a used trailer, they sold it us under false pretenses and didn't do what they claimed they would do as part of the sale of the trailer. A classic bait and switch. This was one of the worst experiences of my life. I would absolutely NOT recommend this place to anyone. read more
