Marketplace ad

Post by Harry »

A friend sent me pics from a marketplace ad which are included here. I tried calling the number and it’s been disconnected. East Aurora is about an hour from where I live. The aol email address is cut iff so no email. I heard there was a Case Dealer in East Aurora but never investigated it. What do you guys think if the Marketplace ad? Go to Facebook and check it out Buffalo NY area. :peace: Harry

I have bought parts from Don at D&S before, (because his physical location is the closest to us) so he does exist :letmesee: ,
They do have a FB page https://www.facebook.com/dspowerequipment/ and their hours are shown as being from 10:00 to 5:30
- but it is the week between Christmas and New Year's - some small businesses might close for the week for a little extra R&R...

I would suspect that he is useing this as a way of free advertising or his facebook identity has been highjacked . Be carefull , only deal in person .

Don is a member of our ingersoll dealer network and a legitimate business, these days marketplace ads are just another form of advertising as Dave mentioned.

Don at D&S sent a return email to me this morning. He said nothing is free. He has reworked the ad. He claimed Facebook messed up the ad and blamed them. I’ll probably make a road trip there to see what he has and go from there. :peace: Harry
