Neil Marcellino, Automotive Network, Inc., Ebay fraudulant car seller! LIAR, CHEATER, SCAM ARTIST, INTERSTATE CAR RIP-OFF BOCA RATON, FLORIDA AND EBAY Florida

I also have a rip off report when I bought a vehicle from him in December--My question is when are we going to stop writing about him and do something. I have tried and tried with attorneys here and they say its going to cost way more than what I could get out of him. The truth is if we come together and do somthing we can possibly get him put away. I have done a lot of research on him and to date have about 7 phone numbers and 5 different ebay accounts. I have his partners name and number and was also told to contact his attorney but they were actually willing to pay me off however i didnt accept the money because I want to put this man in jail. I did all the same things except fly there...got suspicious when the title came blank found the original owener through police records and contacted his bank to try and get my money back. Neil told me if I could prove he changed out the obdometer or rolled back the miles he would refund the money and let me keep the car--guess what I have the original ad from the paper that the car was listed in. I am willing to help contribute to hiring an attorney. Call me if interested 479-409-8051. My car was the 1999 Acura if looking through the rip off reports.

This car was apparently sold as a Mercedes Certified used car back when it had 8,000 some miles on it. There is a photo of the certification with the mileage on the ebay sale site. There is also a photo of the odometer reading 38,000 something. The photos of the car on the sale page make it look immaculate. The license plate is also pictured. Perhaps these were photos of the car (except for the odometer) when somebody sold it to Martin with 8,000 miles. Was the car that you got red?
How could it have been the same car as the one pictured if it had been beat up?
I'm really curious. Obviously you made a mistake in paying for it in advance but if I had seen those photos I would have, too. The price was very cheap for the car - normally they sell for 20 something.

Bottom line is that odomoter tampering is against the law. You should contact the police down there and file charges against him and then sue him for the difference between what the Mercedes guy in Oak Ridge says the car is worth and what you paid for it.

The PROOF IS IN and Neil Marcellino IS AN ODOMETER TAMPERING CAR SELLING LIAR ON EBAY! His user ID is "xerojuan" and he's continuing to sale cars on ebay at this time.

Here's the proof:
1) Previous owner promptly phoned me with his story. John Martin of Decorator's Mart in Naples Florida advertised his car for sale. He received a phone call from a man wanting to buy his car. His name was Neil Marcellino in Boca Raton Florida. Neil met John with payment of $8,500.00 in $20 bills. While John was counting all the bills, Neil asked that John leave the odometer portion of the title blank until Neil could take the car back with him and "check" the odometers accuracy! Relunctantly, John agreed but not before asking Neil to sign a bill of sale showing the sales price of $8,500.00, VIN #, and the odometer reading of 70,665 (not the 38,089 Neil later advertised the car for on ebay and fraudulently wrote on the title he sent to me!)

2) We took the 99 Mercedes to our local Mercedes dealership and they have now confirmed that according to Mercedes electronic files, Pompano Beach Mercedes lists the car with more than 61,000 miles back in 2006! We are awaiting the complete service records from Pompano.

3) Mercedes Benz of Knoxville is also providing a thorough list of problems which total more than $3,300 NOT including the extensive body damage!
When I gather even more proof, I'll update!

This is a sad story which could have been totally avoided if the buyer had paid the balance in Florida after seeing the car. All he would have lost would be the $250 and since that was paid through PayPal, it would probably have been refunded due to the alleged misrepresentation. I'm sure that if the car had been in Oak Ridge the buyer would have looked at it before paying for it.
