Thanks Lotsof454sss. Know where your coming from. Just had contact from another disgrunted person and looks like a visit to Bret may be on the horizen. All is difficult from so far away in Australia. My wife is all pissed off at the US and view of the world changed a little. We were just about to try buy a car from there and have some US muscle sent here but she has put a stop to that due to lack of trust. I said to here that we were just unlucky and that it could have happened anywhere but being so far away means that the entire transaction was based on trust that is not gone.I am sure that sooner or later if a few of us can get together we can sort this out and improve the feelings about being scammed.
Power in numbers is what is needed to sort this out. It will all work out in the end. If anyone knows of any tough debt collectors in that fort collins area I would be delighted to know who they are and get in contact with them.
