Re: Legal Question
Ok, just got back from boat dealer.<br />I have to quit doing this crap.<br />Anyway, confronted dealer to find out what was going on and he said #1 customer owed him 600 bucks on a motor that went on his boat, 4 years ago<br /><br />I said, ok, what does this have to do with #2 customer's boat?<br /><br />He said nothing but the bill would be paid before #2 customer's boat left there.<br />This with no work being done at all on second boat.<br /><br />I told him I did not think he could do that legally and he said, do what you want, but it stays here till that bill is paid and he walked off.<br /><br />Well, I gets back in my truck and get the cell phone out and call the county mountys up and have a deputy meet me there and explain the problem to him.<br />He calls #2 customer and ask his name etc. I show him paper work for #2 customer's boat. <br /><br />He walks inside and ask to see the bill that this money is owed against, and low and behold, dealer can't find it but knows how much it was, this after 4 years. I can understand maybe him not being able to find bill, but he should have had all his taters in a row before making this call.<br /><br />Deputy informed him that since due bill had nothing to do with this boat and since no work has been done to this boat, he advises him to release boat to me and seek other ways to collect his money.<br /><br />So, I got boat and took it back to #2 customer and informed him what was really going on and that for him to locate him another means of getting his boat to the shop and to tell his deadbeat pal, to pay his bill. End of story.
