I have payed $2200 to John Russell to pick up the car in Utah and send it to France. I have waited 3 months for nothing because he says me over the phone that all was right...But finally after contacting all towing companies in Utah the car has been picked up and stored by a towing company near where I bought the car in Utah. Very bad experience. 3 months lost and $2200 lost. I have sent a complaint against John Russell in AR to the Consumer Protection Division. Paypal don't refund your money.

The Service Provider misrepresented themselves, their business or their services I had direct contact with Mr. Charles Russell about shipping this item and confirmed it. I also paid for this shipment in advance. He waited to pick it up till the last minute, and then ended up having a local tower take it to their yard, and store it under his name. He left it there, and never came to pick it up, and it has been gaining storage charges every day since then to the tune of close to 2000 dollars. He filed for bankruptcy, and that is not even the worst part. He told me it was

After communicating directly, I am not comfortable with this Service Provider Wanted payment in full PRIOR to picking up the vehicle! I paid the deposit for Uship with Paypal and have submitted a dispute directly. After I refused to pay for shipping UPFRONT, my phone calls and emails were never answered so I drove 2,200 miles roundtrip and picked up the Suburban MYSELF!

I am unable to reach this Service Provider after a reasonable time period My vehicle was never delivered, localautodirect already refunded my money, I would like to receive reimbursement from Uship for the following: on 11/14/08 I was charged 136.90 after accepting localautodirect's bid. I was also charge $6.95 for prominent placement of my ad on uship.com. I already reposted the ad and payed another $6.95.

I am so glad that this company is no longer a member of uShip. When I accepted their bid, payment was demanded immediately, which they got. I waited over two months for delivery. When I received the jeep, because of their ineptness, I was offered a refund of 1/2 of my payment. I had to continually call for the refund, an echeck was finally deposited into my PayPal account which subsequently failed to clear and now noone will answer my calls or return my emails. Totally a worthless outfit!!!!

His account is suspended, obviously I'm not the only one who has a problem with this guy.
