camping world breaux bridge, la buyer & seller beware!!!

camping world Breaux Bridge, La. Buyer & sellers BEWARE! i setup consignment of my RV for 90 days, was told to drop it off for inspection and they would consign it for 90 days, or purchase it from me for $X dollars upfront. I dropped it off on a Saturday, and inspection was for the following Monday. Tuesday I had heard nothing so i called and was told Matt Jackson the person i needed to speak to was with a customer. I called Wednesday, same story Matt was with a customer. Thursday I reached Matt who stated " Oh good thing you called, I forgot all about this, I`ll have it done today and call you back by 5 pm. Friday I still heard nothing. So this Monday no answer, then on Tuesday ( 8 days after scheduled inspection ) same thing Matt Jackson was busy with a customer. I asked for the store manager who was off. I asked for the managers name and was told they cant provide that information. Then I asked when the manager returned, silence, then was put on hold, then they said tomorrow ( Wednesday ). I contacted customer service to try and find an answer to what was going on. They stated they would call me back in 10 minutes. I received an email stating they talked to Matt Jackson who stated he emailed me a repair quote already. I emailed back advising i received no email. Then later that day Matt finally called me stating he was going to email me a repair quote, and what was my email address. I asked what repairs were needed and he said I`m not going to discuss this with you, you can look at the email. He became rude and unprofessional on the phone, and said we are not going to buy or cosign your RV, unless you pay for the repairs first. Then the next day the store manager called and said the RV needed $10,000 worth of repairs, pay the bill and they would cosign it or i had 2 days to pick it up or they would have it towed away. The RV is 2 years old, used 6 times, all was working when I brought it to them. I`m very confused as to the repairs. I can only guess this is a scam to get your RV in, hit you with a repair bill, then make more money selling it for you. I cant understand doing business this way. Not returning customer calls, fake repair bill, then threatening to have it towed away. Unbelievable. So BEWARE, again I say BEWARE!!!

  • Camping world scamming customers?? lol. Never heard of that before….

    One sided or not, the OPs side is probably about 90% correct. 

    Either way, I wouldn’t by a bottle of water from CW if they were the only place selling water in the middle of the desert. 
    Just the few trips to their dealers years ago for “parts” told me all I needed to know. They are not about anything but making money in the shady side of fair. Period. 
    But that’s been common knowledge for many years for anyone who cares to find it. 

  • FOLLOWUP: camping world corporate called stating my social media was endangering the store manager. I asked how when there name was never mentioned. She stated to take down my posts or come get my RV. I had a previous agreement to go in Monday. I advised I couldnt and why was she threatening me to take down social posts or get RV today? She said i`m not threatening you. HA.,.

      We're getting a one-sided rant of the story with what appears a lot of missing info.

        Always 3 sides to every story but great chance that this dudes side is largely correct. Love to hear some good CW experiences but they probably don’t exist. 
        But they see a sucker walk thru the door when they’re looking to consign their poor Covid purchase choice and likely to try to take full advantage of that. 

  • I think we all would be curious to see a copy of the repair estimate posted here. What could they be angling at with a $10,000 repair estimate
