How
to avoid getting ripped off or bamboozled when buying a Used Engine
or Transmission
Can
you afford to lose your money????
Know
that you’re dealing with a reputable company! Go to bbb.org/online - type in
company's name and view their rating.
BBB
rating?
Do
they have a rating or do they try to hide it by saying not rated?
Should
have at least “A”
rating.
Can
you confirm their physical address?
Do
they have a real address or just a city and state?
Make
sure it’s not just a P.O. Box!
Is
their address in an apartment or someone’s house?
How
long have they been in business?
Do
you have a way to prove what you’ve ordered?
Do
they have an automated Order Verification System to record the
details of your order including condition, warranty, approximate
delivery time and price?
Can
you get them to send you a receipt showing condition / mileage,
warranty and price?
Are
they willing to supply you with the VIN # and the state from which
the part was shipped? This is to ensure that the VIN# of the part you
are being quoted matches where it is being shipped from. Scammers
will typically refuse to provide this?
