MB Luxor Auto

Review: The dealer misrepresented a car I was trying to buy. They provided me with false information by sending me photos which showed that the vehicle was in a rear-end collision. I made a deposit of $500 to keep the car and hired an inspector to come out for $139. I emailed MB Luxor to tell them right after I booked, that an inspector will be coming out to see the vehicle. After further research, photos from the auction were found and the real damages were depicted as a front-end collision. This changed my desire to purchase the vehicle and I called the inspection company to stop the process and get a refund. Their policy is that there are no refunds after 3 hours of purchasing an inspection. I emailed MB Luxor Auto and they admitted to sending me the wring photos. They told me they would only refund the $500 and not the inspection fee (even though I provided them the invoice and confirmation).

Since MB Luxor Auto was the one who completely lied about the pre-repair condition of the vehicle, I find them responsible for the inspection which I spent money on. They refuse to pay for the inspection and are stating that I am trying to extort them.

It is very simple: they falsely advertised (not sure if it was an honest mistake or a fraud attempt), they admitted when they were caught (I have it in writing), but they wont own up to their full responsibility and pay for the inspection which became unnecessary once truth was discovered.Desired Settlement: MB Luxor to pay for the auto inspection of $139.00

Review: Placed a deposit on a vehicle listed in ebay. Was advised to just submit the $500 deposit through pay pal. After submitting the deposit we found out the listing was inaccurate. The car had sustained more than "minor front end damage" as listed and had NOT been driven 200 miles post repair as advertised. We spoke with the dealer, explained we had safety concerns since there were inaccuracies in the listing and he subsequently refused to refund us our $500 deposit stating he had incurred costs in obtaining a rebuilt title. A rebuilt title does not cost $500 and why would he get a rebuilt title for a vehicle that a contract had not been singed on yet. He claims he told us to get a mechanic to look at the car prior to placing the deposit. Had the issues been related to issues found by a mechanic post deposit, NOT related to inaccuracies in the listing I would understand him not refunding the deposit however; the issues were in fact due to false advertising and issues related to his initial false portrayal of the car. After contacting [redacted] and [redacted] we were informed he ended the listing early and this was not the first time something like this had happened however; he seems to have found a loop hole between [redacted] and [redacted] - transaction occurred outside of [redacted] so they can't cover it and [redacted] buyer protection doesn't cover deposits. This is the height of dishonesty and he has essentially stolen our money.Desired Settlement: I would like a full refund of my $500 deposit.
