When something feels hinkey I walk away. Rarely have regretted it in time.
Hope these two go away forever.

Did business with one of them when I was selling advertising in a used car magazine. Always tried to "work" me on the costs of his ads. I never backed down and told him no several times. I believe that I earned a grudging respect from him. So glad that two ladies that I know that worked for him got out before it got so ugly. Such an egotistical narcissist. Karma is a wonderful thing and I am looking forward to both of them getting their dose.
The list of wholesalers who wouldn't do business with them was lengthy. The Cheyenne gypsies wouldn't even speak their name.
Yes, embrace karma.
A whole list of wholesalers who wouldn't do business with them?
YoW!!
Wholesalers will usually deal with anybody who has the cash, at least in my experience.
Wholesalers want paid and want clear titles. They want to avoid "heat", especially with the Dealer Board.

Colorado has some tight (and enforced) regulations. Immigrants from countries where disdain for laws is ingrained often come to grief with the Dealer Board. That probably sounds racists. Oh well, it is what it is.
When I was active in the business, I had my own list of wholesalers, dealers, and sales people with whom I wouldn't do business. Added to that were various lenders and insurance companies (extended and/or aftermarket warranties) and miscellaneous scuzzbuckets.
The aggravation wasn't worth the profit.
My experience, being in the Chicago area, and only as an observer, is a bit different.
Some people were cash-only, and "Let me worry about the paperwork". We generally avoided those types. All of the name-brand dealers where I lived worked very hard to build and maintain a solid relationship in the community. Everybody knew everybody, and if you got shady or hinky or anything else, you'd lose business.
Up in Chicago was quite different in some parts of the city. Going to the "Greater Chicago Area Auto Auction" was quite an interesting experience.
Always take counsel from that inner voice.
Yep, that gut feeling paid off once again. Talk about scumbag! Wow!!!
Law enforcement was able to make a human trafficking case and many financial charges. What they weren't able to make a case was drug trafficking. I know only gossip but believe my sources are creditable. Not enough to go to the authorities, unfortunately.
"Immigrants from countries where disdain for laws is ingrained often come to grief with the Dealer Board. That probably sounds racists."
Nope, racism is when you suggest someone is less of a person solely based on the color of their skin. When you have people who break the laws of the country they're in, they're criminals. Saying so is not racist.
And I'm with you, I hope they go away forever. Scum-sucking mutants.
Which is also not racist.
Yep!

Not sure of your time frame, but as a teenagers in the mid 50's we haunted all of he sketchy used car lots up and down Cicero ave. on the south side. Popular cars then were flat head Fords.
Jim Moran sponsored wrestling on TV. Another, don't remember the dealership, had a tag line that went" I lose money on every sale but I make it up on volume".
