Title: Need a person to inspect a coach I'm interested in
Post by: Susan Morrison on September 17, 2011, 11:42:02 pm
I am looking at a coach in Nacogdoches.  Does anyone have a recommendation for a person to inspect this coach and how much should I expect to pay for this service.

Brett Wolfe often does this and is a member here.  You can PM him for more info.

If this is a consignment coach, there are a few things to keep in mind.  #1: No matter HOW congenial the sales people are, and no matter WHAT they tell you  ... they are used car salesmen. Don't forget that they are trying to get you to sign the check and pass it across the desk.  #2: The more detailed history and collection of service records, the better.  #3:  It's never going to be perfect, but when a company's brochure tells you that "Customer Service is our #1 concern" and also says "We inspect ALL MAJOR SYSTEMS", they mean that they inspect the coaches that they OWN and have taken in on trade ... NOT the consignment coaches.  CAVEAT EMPTOR!!!  LET THE BUYER BEWARE. You are VERY wise to have an inspection.

Sounds like the voice of experience.  Another vote for Brett if he's available.
