LONG STORY SHORT; CAR WAS ACTUALLY DELIVERED A DAY EARLY BECAUSE I DROVE 20 MILES TO GET IT IN THE RAIN BECAUSE THE TRUCK HAD 2 FLAT TIRES. AS I ARRIVED, 10:30PM, THE CAR WAS BEING UNLOADED. I WAS RELEIVED WHEN IT WAS SAFE ON THE GROUND BECAUSE THE RAMPS WERE SOOOO OUT OF ALINE. AS THE CAR HIT THE GROUND I WALKED TOWARDS IT AND A FEMALE MEMBER OF THE CREW APPROACHED ME WITH AN ENVELOPE AND I ASKED HER IF SHE WAS THE PERSON I PAID SHE SAID YES. I HANDED HER 675.00 CASH , AND I KNOW IT WAS 675.00, AND WALKED 10 STEPS TO MY CAR WHICH I HAD NEVER SEEN. A MINUTE LATER THIS WOMAN APPROACHED ME AND TOLD ME THERE WAS ONLY 375.00 THERE. SO ANYWAY I HAD HER RECOUNT IT BUT SHE HAD ALREADY STASHED 3- 100 DOLLAR BILLS SOMEWHERE. I WAS OUT THE POLICE WERE CALLED AND I HAD TO GO TO A CASHSTATION TO GET ANOTHER 300.00 TO REPLACE THE MONEY SHE HAD STOLEN. BEWARE OF STATELINE AUTO TRANSPORT THE COMPANY AGAPE HAD SUBCONTRACTED!

This is a case where the devil has found to attach our company. Please read our reply to this posting. I am a manager at Agape I have been given 3 stories now by this man; this being the 3rd story that has changed in 2 days. The carrier that hauled this mans vehicle is a very reputable country family company who has hauled many many vehicles for us. Given this fact and their reputation we were speechless when this customer called and told us what had happened when our carrier of 3 drivers delivered his vehicle. The story he told us was this: “I want you people to know what kind of carrier you sent out to deliver my vehicle. Your carrier got a flat tire late last night and so they said they weren’t going to deliver my car until the next morning because the tire wouldn’t be repaired til the morning. So I offered to drive out 20 miles to the carrier so they could give me my vehicle where they were and they said ok. I drove out to the carrier and the women driver approached me and took my money for payment then offered to strip for me for $300 more dollars, she said that if I didn’t let her then she would tell the guys to stop unloading my vehicle until I agreed to let her strip and pay her $300 for it. So I paid them, I don’t care about the money I just want you to know who you are dealing with. ” OK right there we went speechless. We had never heard anything like this about a carrier and especially not a Christian family owner operator. So we called the carrier to find out what had happened and their side of the story. The owner said: “Maam this was the craziest thing that has ever happened in this business. We were on our way and we got a flat tire about 20 miles out so we called the customer to let him know it would be next morning before we could make it. He said he wanted to drive to us to get the vehicle so we let him. When he got there we started unloading the vehicle while Lisa went to collect the money from the customer. He handed her an envelope short $300 dollars. When she told him it was short $300 he said well here is $25 more and that’s all I have. He told her that she hid it in her clothes and to take them off to prove it. We told him that his bill was $675 and then his friend got out of the vehicle they had driven and said here is $300 more now unload the vehicle.” Our carrier called the cops because the customer started acting mentally unstable and they started feeling unsafe. Our carrier thinks that the reason the customer
