"They say they offer a 100% FREE consignment program. We process all paperwork in house and handle the entire sale."

Well nothing in life is free, so I am guessing they take a percentage of sale price. Anyone familiar with their program?

You tell them how much you want. Anything they get over that they keep. They will call you with a buyer and say the offer is lower than you want but you should take it. I would ask them to see the buyers order on a sale. They did that to me but I was ready to sell and just let it go. Saw the boat for sale on raceland today I sold it earlier this year.

They ask how much you want to bring home then jack up the price to get their percentage. Seem like nice guys few times I talked to them. If you look on their website, most of the bots are overpriced I find.

If that happens, how much do they take?

They told me they couldn't get enough to sell it if I didn't lower my bottom line price. I dropped $1500. Not sure what they actually sold it for that's why I say ask for buyers order so you can see for your self. I was just tired of having 2 boats and ready to sell.

Bought an ATV from them once. Pretty fair and straightforward.

They sold my old alumna craft a few years ago. I wanted 3k. They called within a week with a lower offer. I refused. Couple weeks later they called saying boat was sold and I got a 3k check from them a couple days later and they took care of the paperwork like they said they would. Would definitely use them again.
