Well Dave got me too. I knew nothing about Dave till he moved in next door to me. One day about a year ago Dave came over and asked to borrow 900.00 from me to purchase 6 machines and told me as soon as he shipped them i would get my money back with interest. Well its been a whole year now and 3 bounced checks later no Dave! Now he is no longer here in Lyons because he didnt pay his rent. What a shocker! After several phone calls i hired my lawer to go after him. I am tired of his lies telling me he will be here today then tomorrow then the next day. B.S. The guy also had his mother call me to say dont worry my little David will be there tomorrow to pay you. So I am fed up with him and going to press federal charges against him for writing me check from acounts that he knew were closed.

Exactly the same lies and excuses

AUTHOR: IL. Vending - (USA)

POSTED: Thursday, September 10, 2015

dave mcdonald is full of B.S.

nothing that come out of his mouth can be believed , I can't tell you how many excuses he came up with .

after 14 straight days of promised delivery and then just not show up , no call .I finally told him I would have another outfit pick them up for me .

that is when I was able to get my money back.

best I can figure he must have sold the same machines more than once ,wonder who else paid and was expecting delivery on the same machines.

the guy is a crook plain and simple

Craigslist Scammer Dave McDonald

The list grows on and on and on for innocent business owners ripped off by Dave McDonald. Please, please, do not be duped into giving him one red cent of your money. I read some of the reports online of him but mistakenly thought I could get a deal from him. He sucks you in after a decent sale and then offers a hard to pass up deal if you pay up front. Then the excuses come...I bought one vending machine from him and was offered a "buy 3 get the 4th free" deal. He wanted to hold the machines until I had accounts for them but thinking ahead (or so I thought) we agreed I would take all machines immediately. I played it safe (or so I thought) by only paying for 2 up front so he'd still want the rest off the money but again, I got sucked in to a hard to resist deal of $200 off the 3rd machine if I pay up front. (BIG MISTAKE!) Well, after weeks of badgering, dozens of broken promises, no-shows and flat out lies I got my 3rd machine. Mind you this is after months of lies! Every machine was a battle. Not once did it come easy as you expect. A death in the family, mom is sick, an emploeye screwed up, my truck is in the shop, I have a terrible sinus infection, I'm overwhelmed.. He'll even send you pictures of your machines loaded on his truck and promise delivery in the morning To get you off his back for a day. Guess what, it's NOT going to happen! "Bank on it" "I'm really sorry I know I screwed up, I'm going to shock you with an incredible machine" " I need and appreciate your business". ALL LIES. Yes, he'll even have his mom call and vouche for him. "He's been really sick but your machine is beautiful, it's the best one I've seen". It's so outrageous it's hard to believe but do your research on him and everyone will confirm the same bullshit stories. I'm still out $900 and no machine as promised for over 2 months. Do you realize how many times you have to lie to not deliver a machine for 2 months? I even lost my best account because I made the mistake of "banking on it" with him.

i have every single text saved to verify every lie he's ever told and what is owed. Call me out Dave, I'd be happy to post all your lies available for download. You're a liar and a thief. This is just the beginning. When I'm done with you, you won't be able to sell a machine from a grass hut in Indonesia.

Pete

Well after Dave got this report boy was he mad! He called me at 1:30 in the morning to tell me that everything I posted about him was a lie and again he was the victom. Well Dave if you would of payed me a year ago like you promised I would of never posted the truth about you. So far today I have gotten 4 threats on text messages and 2 voicemails telling me I am a lier and a theif when I am the one he scammed out of 900.00 bucks!! Now I looked up my name and business on this wbsite and he posted a review on there about me. Which we all know is a bold face lie! So this is the type of business guy you are dealing with.
