Express Auto Trans - Cincy

[SharpAutoTransport]

Just got a call from a guy who told me that he had contracted with Express and lost his deposit because they've gone out of business.

If you look on Central from MA - IL I have a Saab 900 posted. The same car is posted by m2reeves.com LLC. According to my customer, this is who has bought out Express (they didn't tell him that is the company name, but he gave me the number they called from). He said they basically told him to go to hell today.

At M2reeves car shipping we give you our rock-bottom best rate to move your car! Which is great if price is more important than time for you. In order to schedule your shipment at the rock bottom lowest price we need 1 to 10 days to pickup your vehicle and up to 14 days during the summer.

It is important to know that more commonly traveled routes will pickup faster and less commonly routes slower.

Beware of companies who promise faster pickup for the same price or less but who will not guarantee it in writing. If we cannot pickup your car within that time period you are charged nothing.

On the other hand if you need your vehicle moved faster we can do it with our express service which is $250 and guarantees pickup of your car within 72 hours or you get all $250 back.

The great part is your credit card is never charged nor is your check deposited until your car is loaded on the carrier!

Review: I am sorry to tell you that you are not clear about prices.
When I called the employee she told me that the price will be 583 USD and when I paid to them online they take 25 USD as a fee without telling me about it.
Then she told me to give the driver 380 USD that mean the price is not 583 USD it is 657 So she should to explain everything to me to let me know every thing

Thank you

Honesty:

The reviewer gave them two stars for honesty.(Too note, his review was compensated, had the green symbol next to it)I realize they have to advertise dirt cheap prices to gain business. Nobody wants to pay more if they think they are getting the same thing. At the same time, people need to know there are big differences in this business & realize that is easier said than done.

Have never moved anything for M2R & am not planning on changing that.

Yea, that is a common broker move with retail customers. Get the deposit with this rock bottom price and then upsell upsell upsell. Charging him without telling him, if true, is as low as it gets.
