Same old story to tell you here, lost income, as many americans have, and posted my car online to Craigslist. I am unfortunately unable to continue payments on a vehicle I love.
This morning I get a call from "Brad". Well, initially brad's offer seems amazing- so I call in, but I get steve instead because "Brad" is making outbound calls. I initially know this was an automated outbound call because I have done some work in telemarketing myself.
Like every consumer in money-crunching times I ask questions, being cautious of such extensive features that AMS had to offer. Except there's no nintey dollar deal, I have two package offers. I can choose a $229 money back guarantee, which steve informed me that the cars are usually sold within a 7-21 day time frame- or I can choose a "high demand" package which costs $129, but is non-refundable. Now neither package expires- and as all calls are confirmed, there is "a guarantee for my car model.." there are seventeen buyers interested within a 100 mile radius of my area.
He gave me information on the indepent company Longwood Inc., explained that they are a division of this company and that The main company Longwood Sells tote bags, and features items with graphic design. Longwood is a NON-PROFIT company, Auto Marketing Systems IS NOT as well. They donate the money they recieve to different organizations, (Such as Charities, other non-profit associations affiliated with Longwwod Inc.)
If you look at the websites I have posted you will see all of this information. Well, long story shorter, I told steve that i would look into the company, he's sending me more information via snail mail, and I contact him further if I'm interested. I have done some research on BOTH companies, this is what I've found:
Longwood Inc's website:http://www.longwoodinc.com/
Auto Marketing System's website: http://www.automarketingsystems.com/systems.cfm
Call me a fool If you will, but even 130 dollars is a small price to pay to get out of my current situation, especially being unable to sell my vehicle. The decision is yours to make. However, I think I'll give this company a try.
By the way, Longwood Inc, as well as AMS are exempt from FCC violations solely for the fact that they are indeed a non-profit organization.
