Avoid this place unless you want to risk losing your deposit even with the owner's verbal promise…read moreand a written receipt.
In December 2024, I visited this RV dealership after seeing their Facebook ad for a 2000 Tiffin Allegro Class A RV listed at $12,900. I was seriously considering switching to RV living, and this was one of the few options nearby. I spoke with a salesperson named Steve, who was polite, and then with Tony, one of the owners.
I told Tony I needed more time to think about it, and offered to leave a $50 hold fee. He refused that and instead asked for a $1,000 deposit, telling me, "If you don't want it in two days, I will refund it to you. I'm the owner, I bend the rules. You have my word, and I'll even put it on the bill of sale." I have the full conversation recorded. Based on that verbal promise and his position as the owner, I agreed. I was given a receipt (which I still have), and paid by e-transfer.
Two days later, on December 11, I went back to cancel. Tony was slightly upset, but ultimately agreed to refund the deposit via cheque--this part is also recorded. However, at that moment another owner, Paul Buro, stepped in aggressively, shouting that they lost customers because of me and that I "signed the paper," so I wouldn't get a cent back. He told me to take him to court and said he had lawyers. When I tried to reason with Tony again, Paul repeatedly cut me off. Tony stayed mostly silent. Eventually Paul told me to leave or he'd call the police.
On December 16, I returned with a friend who recorded our second visit. Things escalated: Paul raised his voice, threatened to physically remove us, and actually called the police. We waited outside for over an hour, but no officers arrived. Hours later, a police officer called me and said they couldn't help and I'd need to take civil action.
I have:
* A written receipt from the business.
* A bank record of the $1,000 transfer.
* Full audio recording of the owner promising a refund within two days.
* Video footage of the second confrontation.
* Police call records.
Despite all of this, I have not received a single dollar back.
Be extremely cautious if you're considering doing business here. Don't rely on verbal promises, even from the owner. I'm now pursuing legal action.
