Hello Mr. Taylor, You are referring to the finance company correct? Time Payment Corp. is 3rd part finance company that we use to offer finance options to our customers. Every one of competitors, and for the most part, every company in the automotive service equipment industry, utilizes Time Payment Corp. as a finance option for their customers. Time Payment Corp. is one of few finance companies that will approve financing for star up businesses, and those with lower credit scores. Ultimately, the method of payment on all orders is the choice of the customer, and we are very transparent if a customer chooses to finance their order. Furthermore, the customer can choose the finance company they want to work with. The finance company simply tells us if a customer is approved, or not, and what the rate factor will be associated with each approved customer, and then what the monthly payment will be. We then simply give the customer the options, and choice of what term and monthly payment they want. The customer then chooses the term, and payment, and then the finance company emails the documents directly to the customer. The documents are very clear, there is no hidden or misleading information. The customer signs the document via email, at their home or business, under no pressure, and no limit, with ample time to review and make their decision. With that said, this is the same process that transpired with your order. It sounds like you are not happy with the finance company, even though you chose the finance option on your own free will. Regardless, we are happy to help you, and do what we can to see to it that you receive a satisfactory resolution. Please feel free to call anytime, and speak with a manager. Call (888) 990-1786 Ext 202

Could've Went Smoother

In this company made the process of ordering equipment online from out-of-state fairly simple. But, my products were put on back order, and I was not notified until I called to check the status of delivery. So, 4 to 6 business days is now hitting 10 and my machines still aren't delivered. I am confident they will arrive in the next few days because I did receive a tracking number via email. Although the setback they worked well with Setting up a payment plan and being able to electronically sign the documents

We would absolutely appreciate the opportunity to make things right with you sir. We pride ourselves on providing good service, quality products, at a fair price. As we all know, things do not goes 100% perfect, all the time. Whatever it was that you had issue with, it certainly was not intentional, and often times is out of our control. However, if nothing is communicated to us, and we do not hear about it, and the only information or notification received is sent to us from an anonymous person, there is not much we can do. Actually, there is nothing we can do, if we do not know who to contact, or what the problem was. From the summary, it does not really sound like there was much of an issue. Heavy equipment was ordered, and delivered within 2 weeks. If there was something outside of that, please let us know so we can fix it.

FP9k 4 post lift

I recently purchased a 4 post lift from Auto Equipment Depot after looking at many other lifts. I called Auto Equipment Depot and they were very friendly and helpful with all of my questions and concerns. I decided to get this one due to the lifting capacity, duty cycle and price. Many other lifts were rated as parking lifts and recommended cycling no more than once per day, I was told that this FP9K would be suitable to cycle 10 times per day if I wanted to. Since my primary purpose for buying this lift was to do personal automotive jobs I felt that it was my best option at the price point. The purchase was simple and fast over the phone and the lift arrived at a local shipping depot in good condition. The only issue I had with shipping was the original truck that was scheduled to pick it up did not show up so it took an additional week to arrive. After getting it home the assembly went smooth until I discovered that two of the bolts were missing, but I replaced them and had it up and running in about 4-6 hours. I have used it for approx 10 jobs so far and it has worked flawlessly. I am glad that I bought this unit and have no regrets regarding this model or the salesman that I worked with at Auto Equipment Depot. My 4 star rating is due to the shipping delay and missing bolts otherwise I would have rated 5 stars. I would purchase from this company again with no reservations.

My experience with my Sunco four post service/parking lift.

The customer service at Auto Equipment Depot are awesome. They are freindly, product knowlegable, and eager to help. The tech support people are also great to work with. My only problem with this transaction was the instructions were general and vague at best. however I really lke the lift and would recommend it to anyone.

Great place to buy from!

Machines arrived as promised and they work great. I had a lot of questions about the Tire machine and balancers trying to determine which would best fit our needs. The staff was knowledgable patient and friendly. Great company, thanks guys!

One happy first time customer.

I have worked on automobiles most of my life, but always for someone else garage. As i have gotten older and now work in a tire manufacturing plant I have decided to fulfill a dream to work on cars for myself. I had saved my money with intentions of finding a descent used lift of some sort. I discovered Auto Equipment Depot and found I could buy a new lift with warranty and even get easy financing for what i had found a used lift for. The sales associates are very courteous and helpful. I have already been referring people to AED. Thanks for the help.

Good products good service thanks.

I like the products I really the service that your agent provided to me her name is Christine Moro. The only thing I did not like it was one of the fright company that you guys used to shipped my machines I don't remember the name they located in Milwaukee Wisconsin, they delayed my shipping process and every time I called them they hang out on me. In my opining they are races and I don't want to do basins with then again. But Chistine resolved the problem for me 5 stars for her, I'm really happy with the experience she provided to me. You guys are my source # 1 for equipment now as long ypou don't use that freight company in Milwaukee . thanks a lot.

2-post lift

Lift works great. Easy to assemble and install with help or with a lift. Used local pickup to save on the shipping cost.
