Talk about making a "profit" - More like a *******!!!

14/08/2018, bought an Engine from detroit auto spares for R45000. Dealt with a guy called "Kevin". After getting the invoice and engine checked out as to what i needed, i proceeded to Pay for the engine. 15th/08/2018, "Rommy" called time freight couriers to cancel the collection from their address. 16th/08/2018 im told by time freight that the original collection note was cancelled completely and a new collection Address was listed. Collection was to take place at another place called MYM Auto.. Kevin told me that he dropped the engine by them so they can drain the oil and its closer to Time freight depot so collection can take place. I believed him. Saturday i visited cape town depot to collect the engine, It was not there... So i logged a complaint against time freight. They called me back and told me they sent the engine back to MYM auto on friday, 17th/08/2018 cause it was leaking oil and even sent me an image, To my horror, IT WAS THE WRONG ENGINE!!. so i called MYM auto and they told me no M3 engine was dropped off there, the owner, Jermaine Herman, walked into MYM auto and bought this 323i engine for R14 000. They specifically asked for this engine. Detroit auto spares made R31 000 profit on me. When i contacted Kevin to give me a refund, He told me Engine was correctly supp**** and that im trying to de***** and it ended in threats against myself and family from this man. 22nd/08/2018, i called into their land line ,after posting Complaints all over about Detroit Auto Spares, and Jermaine answers. i explain to him what happened and he was shocked... He asked for 2 days to sort me out. Sent him all the proof from my emails and chats with kevin. he said to give him 2 days to sort me out but told me to remove all the bad reviews from hello peter/Gumtree etc which i did. friday 24th/08/2018, he said he dont have money. So i gave him till Monday 27th/08/2018. and he still said no money. I have now logged this with MIOSA and opened a police Case against "Kevin" from detroit auto spares for the threats... Should this fail to get my money back, I have my lawyer on standby to handle this... Please be aware of companies like this. DO NOT PAY MONEY FOR STUFF YOU NEVER Seen. And rather pay the xtra that a reputable company is asking where you know you getting what you pay for... These guys are no good.

UPDATE!!! Standard Bank called me regarding a ***** case investigation against Detroit auto spares Owner, Jermaine Herman as he caught another person out... If you been had by this person, PLease Open a Police case and call standard bank and Speak to the ***** department... Give them your SAPS case number so they can take this further too. I requested them to pay me back but the account has been depleted so no funds to freeze...

Guys be very careful with this detroit autp spares. They post hello petter comments themselves with staged names... Note that all the positive comments, these "customer" only have 1 post ever made and thats for detroit. Please do not buy from jermaine. They cannot be trusted. Google shows their business permenantly closed. Also, his bank account has been blocked at std bank due to ***** activities. And hecan no longer open an account there.. Be very careful. He still has not paid me my money back.

ANOTHER ONE!!!! update... So Just to keep ALL reading about this company, I just WON my MIOSA case against Jermaine and Romela Herman from Detroit Auto spares. Jermaine responded to MIOSA saying, " I told the customer that i woud refund him. I dont know all the details he discussed with my staff member but based on his quotation I will gladly refund Mr Edros" he never contacted me to make the payment... So i tried calling ALL of his many numbers. ALL HAVE BEEN SWITCHED OFF. ALL Him and his Wifes Social Media accounts have been deleted So it looks like they Dont want to be Contacted... I may have lost a substantial amount of Money BUT PLEASE!!!! DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE!!!!! DO NOT PAY FOR SOMETHING YOU NEVER SEEN PERSONALLY!!!... AND IF YOU GOING TO BUY SOMETHING, SEND SOMEONE YOU KNOW/TRUST to go view the stuff and allow them to pay for it and carry it away IMMEDIATELY!!! If you do not know anyone who can go view and buy it for you, then WALK AWAY!!!! do not fall into their Trap... AND PLEASE DO NOT DO DEALS WITH PEOPLE CALLING YOU TO SELL YOU SOMETHING YOU LOOKING FOR.... rather Search for it yourself... God bless all and God keep us all safe from People like Jermaine Herman and Detroit Auto Spares

Mr Edrostjie

It is unfortunate that we have consumers that lies to somehow save face . Please advise everyone that you run to suppliers and request refunds from them. I suggest you go to court as we have already laid charges against you and Mym Auto for *****.

We both know i have the Voice recording of you calling me saying MYM called you asking if they must refund me. The call is clear, where you tell me, and i quote from the video, " (Salesmans name) called me asking if they must refund me and i gave them the go ahead to refund you. Im really sorry about this F-Up. please give me 2 days to fix the F-up Kevin made" ... Jermaine, all i have to say to you is, Every dog gets his day. Yours will come soon. Amen
