"!!!!!!!!!!READ BEFORE BUYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO NOT BUY FROM THIS USED CAR LOT . we purchased a $9,000 vehicle from them and paid it off in 7 months . Took it to a certified Dealership ASE mechanic and had too pay over $7,900 in pre existing damages . They stated that we had done it but we told them we had not and could prove it by a device that is hooked into our car that shows everything from the time we purchased it. Also found out that 90% of the cars that they sell are bought at a auction as parts only cars , they fraudulently put state inspection stickers on them to get them re titled or they take them out of state and re title the cars then bring them back too missouri to have them titled again they do this to by pass missouri state laws and safety regulations. There was over 22 pre existing issues on the vehicle and 9 of those was life threatening. Also the cars front end had been totaled and did a patch fix and replaced the front clip and whole front end with a different year that was not for the car . We have filed a complaint with the DMV state inspector and missouri states attorneys office and have also filed a criminal complaint with the missouri state hwy patrol inspectors and safety office. Do not buy from them. Also I feel sorry for the ladies there who are very nice but the owner is very rude and when you confront him about being shady he will threaten you , this big guy threatened a woman and thought it was ok to do . Safe to say as of 12/17/2022 we have hired an attorney and are pursuing all legal actions against this business. Also they are not licensed to do any financing or financial transactions and they do not report to any major credit reporting agencies when you are financing a car with them."

"The ladies that work here are very pleasant and easy to deal with. The owner has ZERO customer service skills and acts as though he suspects every customer of trying to scam him somehow. First time I have ever paid off a vehicle in 2 months and got attitude for paying off early. I would never buy anything from them again under any circumstances. The car was a typical pop lot deal. Lots of quick fixes, loose panels and switches, zip ties on the front bumper at the bottom, check engine light on, sensor issues and codes. The transmission is rebuilt and under warranty and the engine seems to be okay mechanically just sensors out. 3 different brands of tires on the car and the 2 that match are not on the same axle. We will have another $1000 in the car when it’s finished."

"Sold my wife a piece of junk for 5000 dollars put silicone around the valve covers for a temporary fix then charged her 100 dollars every time they put new silicone on it telling her they fixed it. Do NOT BUY FROM THESE GUYS TOTAL SCAM. I am still fixing it."

"Apparently a handshake and a promise to take care of you, means if you buy a car from me chances are you'll be walking and spending $$$$ lots of money trying to get Raymond to hold up his end of the deal. I'll never do business there again and believe me I'll talk about how bad his place is to everyone who'll listen to me. Now that is a promise I'll keep till I die. Sorry Ramond you won't be able to take my money to the bank again."
