Default Boat purchase

Has anyone bought anything from Drives Motors Depot?

They look to have a huge inventory and nationwide of anything with a motor or R\V.

I found a boat there but hesitant to purchase. There is a registration with delivery and a 7 day return policy. Seems to good to be true. Purchase comes with bill of sale and i can't get a survey done.

Any input with dealings with this company would be APPRECIATED!

Never heard of them. No Title and No inspection would be RED Flags.

It appears to be based in Miami........RED FLAG #1
7 day return policy on a used boat/RV.......... RED FLAG #2
No Survey............................................ ................RED FLAG # 3

They don't own anything, they collect $199 from the sellers and advertise the boat/RV to everyone then collect the money. Seems a lot can go wrong between buyer/seller
