First of all there are 2 sides to every story.... there was great damage to this car already.... he just wanted someone else to pay for it... the driver said he would pay for the little damage he did but they needed to agree on a price and this guy wanted the whole thing fixed at the drivers expense.... SO NO it hasn't been pay yet !! THE OWNER OF THIS UNIT WAS THERE WHEN IT WAS LOADED AND HE WAS HELPING THE DRIVER AND NEVER SAID A WORD TO STOP THE DRIVER. HE JUST LET IT HAPPEN !!! That tells me that your just wanting someone else to pay for your mishaps.... Its not even this guys car, the money needs to be payed to the owner of the car.... AND IT WILL BE !!!

Yes there is always 2 sides to every story.
Now does anybody have any proof that the car was damaged before it was put on the trailer. Inspection sheet, photos. If so lets see them. The only way that anybody can prove if they are a scammer or an honest person is to provide proof.
Also thanks for coming on here to let us hear your side of this complaint. Also Welcome to RJ.

I was just agreeing with you that there are 2 sides to every story. The point I am trying to make is that we need to see proof from both sides if they got it. We stay nuetral here on the Forums UNTIL someone proves that their compliant is real or if they were trying to get over on an honest man.

YES THERE IS AN INSPECTION SHEET NOTING THE OTHER DAMAGE AND IT WAS SIGNED BY THE OWNER ~ LIKE I SAID THERE WAS A LITTLE DAMAGE BUT THEY WANTED THE DRIVER TO PAY FOR ALL THE OTHER DAMAGE WHICH WAS NOT FAIR...... THEY TOOK IT TO THERE BODY MAN AND CAME UP WITH AN UNREASONABLE AMOUNT OF MONEY FOR THE REPAIRS.

As a body man myself I know it is exspensive to run a body shop. So what might seem to be an unreasonable amount may be normal for me. Is there a way you can scan that inspection sheet and post it on here??

It should be as simple as having an adjuster from the haulers Insurance Co. go give an estimate on the car.

I HAVE TO GET TO THE OFFICE TO GET SHEET AND NO WE DONT HAVE ANY PICTURES SRY ~ CAN I ASK A QUESTION ? RACE CARS ARE MADE UP OF SHEET METAL ?? IF YOU RUBBED THE BUMPER ON THE RAMP OF A CAR HAULER ~ GOING SLOW MIND YOU ~ HOW MUCH DAMAGE DO YOU THINK IT CAN CAUSE ?? IM NOT BEING A SMART A__ ~ JUST WOULD LIKE TO HEAR ANOTHER OPINION ~

That depends on how hard they bumped it. If they barley rubbed it and the bumper is rubber I am assuming then it would only scuff it and not dent it. Now if they bumped it and had a lot of force when they bumped it then it could dent it too. It wouldnt total the vehicle or anything. I know when someone backed into my Celica it cost $1,275 to fix the damage. The damage was only on the fender and part of the door. That was also a couple years ago.

AGAIN ARE YOU A BROKER? IF SO YOUR HAULER NEEDS TO BE GIVING THE ANSWERS ON HERE. I,LL SAY THE SAME THOUGH.IT SHOULD BE AS SIMPLE AS HAVING AN ADJUSTER FROM HIS INSURANCE COMPANY GO OUT AND GIVE AN ESTIMATE ON THE CAR.I JUST WENT THROUGH THIS.
DirkaDirka
01-09-2010, 02:49 PM
Also if their insurance company looks at it they will only pay for the damage that was caused by bumping it against the trailer. Any other damage they wont pay for.
That is from the experience I had when my car got backed into also. I have a custom paint job on it and they wouldnt pay for a coomplete paint job so I just had to deal with the crappy spot job they did when they tried to match the color of the paint.

Yes, there are 2 sides to this and all situations! I had a body shop at the pickup and he advised me not to settle for $400. It did much more damage than that. I asked for their insurance company to come out, no reply. You decide if you want your $35000 car transported by Mitten Express.

Something aint right with these estimates. Why would a body shop repair a steel bumper??
totalsbc
01-11-2010, 01:11 PM
it is NOT a steel bumper it is a fiberglass bumper. There was NO previous to the car. The car is for sale at 35000. that should tell you about the quality of the car.

if the car had great damage to it you would think the car hauling co. would have took a picture of it before it was loaded. Everybody has a camera phone.

Well there is 10 minutes I will never get back!!!
I come back to see what's up on RJ, read this whole thing, & totalsbc says it's closed?????? What a joke.... maybe totalsbc should take a few precautions before he comes on here WHINING about an issue that maybe could have been dealt with outside completely!! Man, do your homework.... don't buy a 35K car and then make claims that it is someone Else's fault you did little/no due diligence!!
It is always OUR EMERGENCY when a deal is not properly executed, but a undisclosed check in the mail SHUTS PEOPLE RIGHT UP. Yeah, good luck with your future deals totalsbc...or should I say "totalBS"....
In the end, I would not take you, your claim, or your uneducated RUMOR about mittens seriously.
BTW: Good to be back, missed all you guys!!! (I have been in Ohio on buisness)
