Responded to advertisement from Craigslist 2 for 1 COMPLETE AUTO DETAIL special for 150.00 , when owner Bayard Bodhaine, Jr. arrived he upsold that service to 197.00. He did complete engine detail on one vehicle and partial detail on the other which was "car wash" quality not detailed. His assistant a girl that had never detailed a car before and was likely not an employee just his ride. He said he needed additional product and had a family emergency so he would have to return on another day to complete the job. As a courtesy and out of trust I paid him in full. He Never Returned after that.
He made several promises to show up causing us to re-arrange our schedule and take alternative transport and walk so the cars could be available for his return. He never came back, making up excuses and avoiding calls over 2 weeks. I have since found out he has ripped others off and has an "F" bbb.org rating and should have checked this before hiring him. He told us that he had no way to return to do the job but when other people would call him for new business he was available and ready to go, this is when i knew I was being ripped off and lied to. I would highly recommend not to use this service.

I found this guy looking for an employee on craigslist. He said he would pay me 50 per job and up to half since i was going to be doing alot of driving. I was told i was going to be reimbursed or mileage on a weekly basis and paid right after each job. This was all going to be a string of lies for the next 2 weeks. I pumped my own gas and worked with him a total of 7 days over a course of 2 weeks. He would tell me that he was doing clients cars that he would do on a monthly basis and they were regulars. we would some time complete the job and sometimes not and leave early. He would tell me that the clients only paid him for half and only sometimes giving me only 40 which was only once and he only paid 40 in my mileage. i spent out of my own pocket 250 on gas just driving. When it was time to get paid he would always make up excuses or tell me the client is not satisfied with the work or we would have to come back the next day. He would go MIA for days at a time and impossible to contact. The only reason i continued to work when he would call is because the bastard owed me more than 200 dollars promising me pay when the job was done. There was always an excuse of why he couldnt pay me or why he did'nt get paid by the client. All i could ever do was belive him. I guess I was naive. I finaly got fed up and quited but demanded my pay which was 280. It was a cat and mouse game. I got fed up with the lies and excuses. I never thought once knew he was ripping everyone off. I would like to gather everyone that has been ripped off by him and put this guy away.
