Mr. Royce Smith operates as a small time backyard car dealership, specializing in exotic and rare autos.
We were in the process of purchasing a Jaguar XKE that he had advertised on Craigslist, the price seeming very reasonable yet raised several red flags.
Mr. Smith demanded a cash deposit upfront, yet did not reveal until later that the car had leins against it.
At that juncture, I of course asked for my deposit back.
Mr. Smith still has not returned $1,000.00 deposit money despite numerous demands from myself and my attorney.
State and local authorities have been notified, and now conducting a full investigation as to his business practices.
I strongly urge that people do not conduct business with this older "gentleman".
