Collecting Cars collectingcars.com Misrepresented a car I won on thier auction

I won a car on this company's auction site - they charged my credit card $500 which is their fee. After the auction they gave me the seller's contact information so we can consumate the transaction. The seller and I exchanged emails and I discovered the car had massive rust that was not disclosed in the description nor in the photographs.

I, of course, told the seller I will not be purchasing a rust bucket car that was misrepresented by this company; collectingcars.com. I immedeately reached out to collectingcars.com and the representative told me I was able to cancel my transaction with the seller, but they were keeping my $500. The representative confessed that the photographs did not depict all of the rust on the car and because of that they would give me a $500 credit towards any future purchase from their company.

Well, I don't know about all of you, but I would certainly never again bid on any car advertised by this company because the same thing could happen - problems not disclosed. I'm writing this to help others from getting tangled up like this and lossing $500, or even worse getting a car deliverd that is completely misrepresented (or defects/problems omited from their description).

I feel that I got ripped off by collectingcars.com - they should have done the right thing and returned my $500. Instead they are so hungry that they are keeping it. The representative had the balls to ask me about the cars I own and if I would sell any through collectingcars.com. Ha! Not in a million years!  Anyway...shame on collectingcars.com. Hey collectingcars.com ~ karma is a bi*ch - you better change your ways.
