Default Corvette TRADER Beware

I recently got my 1980 corvette on corvette trader. I have been trying for 2 months to get them to post the right pictures. They have not done it. It took me a month to get the AD verbage changed as they changed the original one that was sent in with the pictures. They removed pictures from my show condition engine compartment and have pictures of my wheels and rims which are stock. I also have a front page ad that is wrong I have half a car on the front page showing mostly the front door. I just don't get it. I have spoken to numerous people as they pass you around to avoid speaking to you. You can only get in touch by email. They did not post the right pictures or have they fixed it. This sit is horrible and not even worth the $50 to post on if you want aggravation no accountability, lack of customer service then use them nothing was done right from the inception of using them and i am still trying to fix my posted pictures of my car that are wrong they are garbage

I'm a little confused. Did you recently put your car on Corvette trader or did you recently purchase your car on Corvette trader?
Also if they posted wrong pictures of your car how did they get the pictures to begin with? You say you have one of mostly the front door did you give that to them?
Did they crop the pictures?

It's posted for sale, but it sounds like Corvette Trader can't get it right.

Things may well have changed in the years since, but my previous experience with those folk was the complete opposite from the OP's. Bonus for me, they apparently liked my C4 so much that it made the cover one month at no additional charge.


In any event, if you haven't already done, why not post your 'vette for sale here on the CF? It's free and you can edit your F/S post to your heart's content. My $.02

I know that pisses me off when someone takes my money and cant do the job right. As a previous business owner I had pride in my work as my family name was on the business. People are raising their kids with no pride these days. On a different note, I found mine on craigslist. I didn't know corvette trader existed. Maybe you should get your money back and post it yourself. Just my .02 cents. Good luck
