How do they sell ANY cars?

It baffles the mind how these guys sell any cars. The 'salesmen' if you can call them that, is totally clueless on cars and know absolutely nothing, other than the very restrictive company policy. And god forbid, you want more information on the history of a car, or want to speak to a manager, that is an eternal sin!

WeBuyCars lies about "as-is" policy on false report vehicle (***)

I am updating my review regarding WeBuyCars Polokwane wrongfully keeping my R6,338.99 transport deduction. After I flatly refused their insulting verbal offer to settle for 50%, their team responded in writing with a complete lie. They are now claiming they "can't do anything" because the 2011 Chrysler Grand Voyager was bought on an "as-is" auction policy. Let me set the record straight publicly: This was NOT a salvage or scrap auction. This was a standard WeBuyCars online "Price Drop" promotional sale. You cannot issue a completely FALSE vehicle status report, trick a consumer, and then try to hide behind an ******* "as-is" / Voetstoots excuse to ***** their transport fee when they cancel the deal. Under Section 41 of the CPA, misleading a consumer is strictly *******. To the WeBuyCars management: I have already exposed this "**** auction" excuse directly to Senior Case Specialist Ipeleng Nyatlo at MIOSA under active Case ***/***. Your call center agents can stop playing games. I will not accept a single cent less than my full R6,338.99 refund. See you at the Ombudsman ruling.
