hello all,
I need your advice.Have you ever bought anything expensive from the internet ?I am supposed to choose an american made caravan from the net for my Boss.I posted an Ad. here.A company named Mason Exports in the USA offered to buy me the caravan I chose with a discount also.we are talking about 23000 USD.How can I guarantee i am not being fooled?What gurantees should I ask for?they said they will give us invoices and a bill of payment as soon as we pay, we will also have their account number in TD bank...what else!!!!!What do you think ?

It is not the way of Payment I am worried about.It is wheather the company is playing me for fool!!!Is it worth trying or not!!

As far as I have quickly seen on the website you sent me, Mr. Mehnis.,the one I had chosen before (K-Z RV)is much luxorious than these here.

Anyway, I will go through them carefully tomorrow, It seams quite good Idea to find one here in Doha , instead of the US.Hope to convince my Boss with that

Thanks alot for your help

Well website says a lot. Anyway easiest would be to get this camper/trailer here and fulfill that request/order you have. Check out the http://www.fleetwoodcampingtrailers.com and www.colemantailers.com. I have seen two models with them. A larger one costs about 45K QR and the smaller one 30K QR

with full a/c, water storage and remote functions. They have the smaller one in stock. The price I think is definitely negotiable as all that is here. I will have to hop over to get you the phone number and can do if you want it.

One small thought:: why in the world would be worried about using your credit card for the company that has access to so many payment options in the US?????

why not try Dubai? maybe they have caravan showroom. very hard to do business in the net with that amount, and 23K for caravan with postage included? hhmmm quite cheap for a big caravan ang its imported overseas.

practice makes perfect, but nobody's perfect... so why practice? duh?! ☺

Be careful because it is a lot of money. Also even if genuine, normal warrantee/guarantees will not apply outside the US. Plus if you get something damaged in shipment there is not much you can do.

I advice that you check out the Fleetwood and Coleman on Salwa road. Can give you the website and phone numbers if you want.

Thanks Postmodernman

But I am not sure if the bank is a canadian one. I do not think so.I saw the website on the net.It says the most convinient Bank in America!!!!!!!!!!!the price includes the shipping to Doha.The company is a family company, as I could see from its Profile.

is that the toronto dominion bank in canada? would be weird to have a us company deal with a canadian bank.

don't forget about the shipping prices too!

you always have to be careful doing business over the internet.
