My contract stated one price and I have all my paperwork to prove this. The driver was nice and courteous but stated and showed me his side of the contract that it was for more money. He did give us the truck with only the initial COD payment and we agreed we would get this straightened out in the morning. We have since resolved this matter. Instead of me owing 220 more dollars, Jonathan and I settled on me paying the driver 90 more dollars and sending this directly to his personal address. Overall my son is happy he got his truck and I have had a car trasnported one other time when I too was 16, so I know how this works and was really leary of the overall transporting situation. All in all every thing turned out OK. The driver was great. I however, do not think I would use Fairway Auto again anytime to soon. I to have found out they are not members of the BBB and do business under many names, but alot of companies do this too. Car was clean and not damaged. This is the main thing.

this customer placed an order with us after she had the order with many companies, we had told her at inception that to go to myrtle beach, sc and deliver it to west virginia was very difficult and could take some time and a little more money, she agreed to the above. Now when the car is getting delivered she complains about the additional amount and does not even pay the driver the additional and just gives the car to her. We had talked today and I said that instead of $200.00 additional, just pay the driver $90.00 additional, she agreed.only the exact cod was paid to the driver and nothing else, the 90.00 was agreed to afterwards and will probably never be sent to the driver. It also never took 18 days the requested pickup date as per the contract was 4/8, we picked it up on 4/24 and delivered it on 4/25, she complains , but she was told that this is a difficult rout and it could take sometime for the pickup. The only reason that the increase took place was that the pickup and delivery was very much out of the way and the $90.00 did not even cover the drivers cost.
