Worst place ever!!! My daughter got a car here and put $2000 down which was half the cost of the car. She was on Bi-weekly pays and two days before her first pay they repossessed the car. We went up there the next day with the money to pay the repo fees and any other charges. First we were told by the salesman that he didn't know the number to the finance office THEN HE CALLED them and told us it was a number to a different department. He then got a call back and sent us across the street to the finance office and there were 2 people there so that means the salesperson is a liar. Then Brian told us to turn over her keys and they would send a letter to explain what she needed to do to get her car back. I asked why wait for a letter when we had the money now. Brain told me to shut up he wasn't talking to me. When I told him I would not just shut up cause my daughter is a single mom of a 1 yr old and needs her car back or the $2000 she gave him lastweek, well he pulled out pepper spray from his desk drawer and tried to spray me!! The next day they told my daughter her letter was sent and would be there in a couple of days. Well the next day her car is sitting on their lot and advertised on their website for sale again!! So they have no intention of sending out a letter or giving my daughter a chance to buy it out right, which she has the money to do. So RUN DON"T BUY A CAR FROM THESE LIARS!! The good reports on here must be written by them. Wished we would of googled them before we stopped there. And next weekend I will be sitting up there with a sign and every weekend after to prevent them from doing this to anyone else!!

Worst place to buy a car from! I paid them $1060 and payments were supposed to be paid weekly. Well 2 days before my payment was due my car was repossessed. When I tried to get my car back they said the only way I could get my car back was IF I paid the balance of the car. COMPLETE RIPOFF! They take advantage of ppl and they are just looking to make a quick buck and should be put out of business. They are extremely unethical and did not seem to care about me being a struggling father trying to make ends me for my family. HORRIBLE!!! Consider buying from a bank, at least you would get a good running car, and you car would not be repoed 2 days prior to the due date and as most banks would wait until you are at least 2 months past due and they communicate with you the entire time and on time payments will help boost your credit rating. You are taking a HUGE risk going to these buyherepayhere garbage places. Half the vehicles are wreck, high mileaged, or just plan out auction junk that no reputable dealer would sell so these buy here pay here junk yards profit from them instead by taking advantage of ppl down on their luck! Beware and do your research!!

Five stars! Great place! I Took my son there for his first car, he is pretty rough on it and it still runs great. I have also been sending friends and family there for 9 years. Always a good experience with them. The autos have higher mileage and have a few scratches, but i have always been given a great deal! They do buy here pay here, and will also sell the cars cheap for cash. I cant say enough good things about these people they have always treated me, my friends and family with great care and honesty.

Very happy with my purchase! Refreshing to find an honest car bussiness!!, Great place! Being a single mother i have been very careful shopping with my money. They had the best price for my gmc envoy, i have had it for about 3 months now and it is running great, had to change the tires, and a headlight, but no major problems. My neighbors family has purchased many from them and were very happy , so i figured i would shop too. Glad i did! Highly recommend! Five stars!

Nice people to trade with, highly reccomended, five stars!. I am a retiered veteran, and on a fixed income, the other car dealers could not get payments where i was comfortable, plus the fixed income issue seemed to be the major problem,

Pinellas auto brokers went to bat for me, i have been very happy with my purchase, it was also nice to do bussiness with a fellow veteran. ii would highly recommend this bussiness to anyone, they did right by me. thank you.

SCAM SOLD CAR WITH BLOWN ENGINE. LIED & COVERED IT UP!. I went to Pinellas Auto brokers three times looking for a safe car for myself and my new born son. I spoke with three different salesmen including Jason, Brian, and another who called himself DJ or some initials. I asked for details on a couple vehicles that I was comparing. They all told me and my witness: "all of our cars are checked by our mechanics before being placed on our lot." "We don’t sell cars that have any problems; we send them to auction" "this one is really good, a great choice for you." "If anything goes wrong we will fix it for you etc..." These were all lies. The small SUV I bought sounded good during the short test drive but began loudly knocking on the way home. I took it to a mechanic who informed me that the engine was blown and that some sort of heavy oil and/or sealant had been put in the engine. Apparently this is a trick shady people use to defraud buyers. The next business day I had the SUV towed back to them. They got all nervous and lied about everything then claimed they were going to look at it and fix it for days. Finally they admitted the engine was blown but refused to fix it or refund me. Brian even had the nerve to lie and say "maybe it's the just the starter wana buy a starter!" trying to scam me out of even more money! I am suing of course. If you had a similar experience and want to join a class action suit against them contact me below.
