If you wanted to get really creepy and make sure he never came back again

When he asked you for your keys you should have looked at him for a couple seconds, then given him a kiss on the top of his head. and said "i'm sorry darling, but I think you have the wrong car"

100$ says he'll never come back again hahahaha

I would have handed my keys, then said let me get some things out and pulled out ole faith Mr. XD40 cal and did you need anything else...lol. Or i could have been a total *** and gave him my keys and call the Police and report it stolen and use the insurance money to get a new V2...lol.

Maybe you missed out on a chance to get your V "Overhauled"!

I don't think a repo guy would be so brazen. Generally speaking people who don't pay their bills don't have a lot going for them. They aren't real keen on having their stuff taken back.

so after speaking with some people in the area, the guy is a legit repo agent working for a local company and i guess just really sucks at his job...needless to say I'm trying to go after him and at minimum have him reprimanded.

Something like 70-80% of all finances end up as a repo. LOL

And to think that I can't find a replacement sail panel is outrageous!

I've worked in the industry for years....doesnt it make sense if a repo agent is stalking you that he would use the element of surprise thru a undercover vehicle instead of a Repo Truck?


yes it could have been a scam or just a error on repo's behalf

I've seen repo's in action before. I saw some SUV getting its wheels stolen, turns out, they were being repo'ed by Rent-N-Roll.

I was driving past a mexican little strip mall store, and I saw a tow truck pull in there, 10 seconds later it was backed up to a car, 5 seconds later the car was in the air, and another 5 seconds the truck was out on the main road with his repo. Literally less than 30 seconds.

That guy sounds like he needs to be more than reprimanded. He sounds like a complete fuckup.

Where did you get this statistic? Not trying to be a dick, just curios. That percentage seems very high.
