ZoomersRV
I really wish I would have seen the forums and reviews before getting sucked into buying a camper from ZoomersRV. We are completely devastated! Please buyers, beware! We understand we bought the ca...

OK, I'll jump in with my Zoomers RV story...
I would say we're experienced RV owners.
We've owned a number of RV's over the years, and rented before we bought.
We recently purchased our third diesel pusher motorhome, and we bought it on eBay from Zoomers RV, Wabash IN. The owner/dealer is Mike Weaver. Mike states in his eBay ads that his units are "not nice". He is correct...
In the past, we've bought a couple other motorhomes on eBay, and both were represented fairly accurately by the sellers. So, we honored our end of the deal by wiring Zoomers the funds, flew to Indiana and rented a car to pick up our coach. Upon arrival at his lot, we looked through all their other motorhomes, and every one was dirty and had several broken things visible. In Mike's words: "not nice". Our mistake was not believing his ad, which clearly says their RV's are not nice units.
Walking around the coach, it was obviously far rougher than his video description indicated. Very dirty, low on oil, etc. It became apparent that his representation of the coach was quite inaccurate; starting with, it has a different engine than was advertised as having! But the worst fault that was obvious at the moment was that the windshield was broken. Cracked top to bottom. Mike said he didn't notice that... Funny, his video clearly claims "all good glass". He wanted to send us on our way with the broken windshield, and "take care of it" when we returned home. Judging by his dealership's sloppy appearance and his inventory's ragged condition, I pressed him to fix it there, and that we would simply wait until it was done. (Note: Federal law prohibits driving with a broken front windshield...) I simply sat in Mike's office until he made arrangements to pick up the glass and have it installed the next day.
Once on the road, we discovered several other flaws that Mike's ad and video had misrepresented. Things such as the exhaust brake not working, no engine caution or warning lights working, no dash A/C, etc. etc. etc... (His ad claimed all systems were functioning properly.)
Since we got the coach back to beautiful San Diego county, I've spent many hours fixing the myriad of problems that were not disclosed by Zoomers RV. Fortunately, much of this I can fix myself. I did have a tech come to fix the exhaust brake and troubleshoot wiring.
Finally, the coach had been advertised to include a warranty from StarRV. The eBay ad clearly says it includes the warranty, but Zoomers RV never actually paid for the warranty. That was a significant part of my decision to buy, yet EIGHT weeks after I bought it on eBay, NO WARRANTY...
I have offered Mike numerous opportunities to resolve these issues, with no help in return. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend purchasing an RV from Zoomers.
Let's hope he sees this and decides to do the right thing!
P.S: The bulk of their eBay feedback is from selling fishing tackle online, NOT from the sale of RV's...
