Wow!

I was going to ask what is that. Now I think I'll ask what was it, because it surely isn't it anymore.

I see my name on that box! I had nothing to do with it!
"your heart breaks for people when they get shafted like this"
Yes it does...

The guy paid up completely upfront?  I hope is was on a credit card.

I feel sorry, and at the same time, natural selection has to run its course.

Too many get into this shark infested pond, thinking they are consumers, with some sort of fair play school yard rules...

This is a commercial playground... you are a shark, or you are shark food.

No in between, but people keep dreaming about buses.

Be very careful, busnuts, the best shark leaves you feeling you were well taken care of... right up until you get chewed...

Happy coaching!

The Pictures don't really show the horror that is contained in that crate, absolutely despicable.

I hope you and Clifford can make it right, before Christmastime tom...

It would be nice to reveal the guilty parties so they can be properly shunned and avoided. Maybe a little public disclosure will shame them into making it right. Probably not.

I agree the guilty crooks name should be broadcast for all of us to know so we don't deal with them and have to find out the hard way.

They received 3000 back from the credit card company,the rest was paid with cash and debit card and you have no recourse when paying with a debit card after a few days.The lawyer wants 20 to go after 11k when they make a decision I'll post the name lol but it is a shop in Michigan and the other was on Illinois,

Kind of hesitating to post but others not raising fact that owner appears could have done a few things differently. Since no background was provided which is needed before anyone passing any judgement, there are scenarios where more, detailed hovering over this transaction might have prevented this outcome.
Where was the bus before taken to shop? Was it running or broke down on road out of town? Did the owner ask around for references while shopping for a repair? Did the owner do any shopping or vetting of shops? How did the owner make payments for the repair? Lump sum upfront, some to get started, then balance at end? Did the owner keep in direct and constant communication with shop as the repair was being done or waited for call saying job was "done"? So many factors involved that it is pretty hard to know what the hell really happened. This is all second hand at best info.

For that amount of money, I would drive to wherever to personally pick it up. Even if I had to rent a Uhaul trailer.

I used to work in a restoration shop and would get engines in a box like that. When the owner decided he wasn't going to go on they sat a box in my bay and said to put the parts in it (Maserati engine in pieces), and I no longer had a job.
