Anyone buy a sled from these losers.

Well done to the dealership that alerted police

How were they reselling the units…

Is it one of the polluted Kijiji ads that only want you to finance…?

 

[maxwell]

no, they usually apply to finance a unit online and do all the paperwork online with stolen identity so they don't actually have to go into the dealership. Then they send a hotshot to pickup the unit.

Dealerships deal with this alot and most have policies in place once they notice a few fishy things about the application. Usually someone buying something sight unseen, not bartering on the price, and sending someone else to pickup is a red flag for most dealers

sounds like in this case they were getting credit cards so they could resell the units so they wouldnt have leins on them from the bank.

This could explain why my used sled is worth so little. A crime ring is stealing tons of sleds and dumping them on the used market for blowout prices.
