Warning to everyone. I supposedly bought an Oliver tractor from Vern Otto from Beausejour, Manitoba, Canada. It was posted in the Photo Ads. I wired him money as requested and was told the tractor would be shipped within a couple weeks. I hadn’t heard anything and dropped him an email to see where things were. I got a “story” back about the fact that the tractor I had “bought” had been sold by the actual owner and Vern hadn’t paid for it. In the meantime he says he used my money to buy another tractor and will send my money back “in time”. At this point I’m out a little over $3,500 and am evidently acting as Vern’s banker.
I called him twice and he hung up on me both times. When I told him I would post it on ytmag.com to warn everyone he told me he’d take a long time to get my money back to me. A warning to anyone who is buying a tractor from him – DON’T!!! Drop me an email or give me a call if you like and I can give you more details
