      On May 27th, 2022 I entered into a purchasing agreement with "The Car Guys", specifically Bill P*********, and provided a $4000 deposit. The agreement was to last through August 26th, 2022, at which time if they were unable to find the vehicle for me, my deposit would be refunded. When contacted, Bill said he would call me back after labor day weekend to arrange transfer. No call from him, nor has he responded to e-mail, text or voicemail.

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID 18007194, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.  The business issued a full refund and at this point has fulfilled their obligation to me.  Thank you to the BBB for your assistance and to the business in question for a positive and satisfactory response to the complaint.  I wish the business in question well in their future endeavors and hope that this situation does not arise for them again.

      Sincerely,
