This is not the worst automobile dealer I've ever dealt with, but one of the worst merchants as well. The City Public Auto auction has you bid on vehicles from a high to low price. If yoy "win" the bid the sales personnel bully and almost physically force and coerce you into buying a vehicle by walking up on you, and subjecting you to demeaning treatment.

Their 25% down rule means nothing, as they haggle and harass you into leaving almost any cash deposit down-whether its five or five hundred dollars. This is all free money to them as they add high buyers premiums and other fees to your account which always doubles your bid price. If you leave they retain your cash. This works out well for these thieves as the know that you probably won't return if you leave a small deposit-this is cash in their pocket.

If you do return to pick up the vehicle you have to pay fees so high that you actually saved no money at all-you paid full commercial price for auction vehicles, and they know you'll probably walk away from the sale. You don't get to check the interior or the condition of the vehicles, the staff is always mistreating and disrespecting the customer, you only see the exterior of the vehicle, and the local police have related that the City Public Auto Auction is shady, and have engaged in bait and switch, and vehicle switches where you bid on one vehicle, and they have sold you another without your consent/knowledge.

I'm filing a lawsuit as well as a Illinois Attorney Generals Consumer complaint against them-any parties wishing to join in can contact me at gevans357@yahoo.com.
