I was looking for a fifth wheel to take to my new location in California. Me and my friends stopped by Gavin's and my wife found one she liked. First impressions of Gavin and his wife were they were really nice people. Later I found that this was a ploy to build trust.
To make a long story short, I took my camper in to Gavin's in order to hold the fifth wheel and I explained that I was in the process of refinancing my home and would contact the lender to see about financing the fifth wheel. He offered me $8500.00 trade in value on my camper.
About a week later I dropped off my truck to get a hitch and electronic brake installed. But I told Gavin I was still having trouble getting financing. He told me he sold my camper already.
Another week went by and the lenders would not finance me. Gavin and I contacted several of them.
Today, I returned and tried again to no avail. I then asked to be compensated for the value of my camper, remove the hitch and trailer brake and give me my truck.
He said he would only give me $1277.00 for my camper because he had done $3700.00 worth of work on the fifth wheel and the wholesale value of the camper was only $5,040.00. Plus he placed a mechanics lien on my truck.
At that time I said that I was calling the police to file a theft report. As of now, Gavin has my truck, my camper, and the
fifth wheel.
I would highly discourage anyone from doing business with this company or this person.
