We recently left 3 musical instruments at MeKeels Music Shop, for them to find a buyer…read more We did not get anything from them in writing which was our mistake. When we called to find out their progress we were told that he sold one of the instruments. We asked why he didn't call us he said I lost your number. He told us the amount he got for the instrument and we were shocked at how low it was. He never called and told us he had a buyer and the amount he was offered for it. When we called him, he was very indignant on the phone and hung up on us. We went to the store to get the money he had for the one instrument and pick up the other two. When we got there we were able to locate one of the instruments. Upon asking about the other he at first could not remember where it was. Then said oh ya I sold it. But didn't remember the amount or who he sold it to. He gave us what he thought he got for the two instruments. When I told him I was going to put something on Yelp he told me if I did he would come to my house. So remember get something in writing before you do business with MeKeels.
