    Default Any experience with Uponerepos company? ? Is this a reliable dealer?

    Hello everyone, I'm trying to purchase my lovely boat from this online website: Uponerepos. They agreed to my offer, the boat is in a rather pleasant condition. This is my first sailboat investment and not sure if this is a genuine website. They assured me that I would have at least 10 (ten) days for examination before any payment is sent, all I should do is to register with them and they will ship me this beautiful boat, if I choose to keep it I'll pay for it if not then I can return it. Is this service a real one?

    I believe I can assist you, I know a guy who actually works with this store, he purchased his wheels from Uponerepos, he also told me that they have their own escrow-like service which is free of charge if you purchase from them, I will come back to you as soon as I will have more info.

    Just google search them to conclude if this company is authorized. This'll bring up any feedback from past customers or websites informing potential consumers of the service they have to offer. Overall my experience with Uponerepos was outstanding and I would suggest Uponerepos to all. I am based abroad and consequently, all my transactions with Uponerepos were made via email or live chat. The whole process was described clearly to me including extra expenses and time frames, the delivery was well within the time-frames declared and my vehicle arrived in the same condition as in the pictures/videos.

    Welcome here, I have had a great experience with Uponerepos. Purchase the caravan one year ago for a decent price, they shipped the caravan in about ten days or maybe more, I can't remember correctly. I had no problems at all with the caravan and following then I traveled a lot, the caravan is still in great shape, the caravan was exactly as I assumed it will be.

    If the boat is an excellent deal you should go for it. Can you please give us some updated information on how the purchase went?

    Thank you all for the support, So far I used the registration form and now I'm waiting to receive the invoice, their message says that I will get a notification by tomorrow morning. I will keep you posted.

    The service is not perfect, I remember reading some reviews and articles regarding the services they offer, but I don't remember precisely where to point you, I never used it because I haven't had the occasion, but it is a real company.

    Did you get an email or any notification from them that your item is being shipped?

    The service is acceptable and is also legally authorized, I know it's scary not viewing the boat before paying it and I'm an old school person myself, I never order anything I can't see before, but they assured me with their 10-day money-back guarantee, I said what the hell, I will try this. Received the stuff home five days later and after I've paid them.

    Believe me, everything will be going as you presume it to be, Four years ago someone informed me about this service and their online store and since then I've been getting different things from them and have never been dissatisfied with their service.

    Finally, my boat has been delivered earlier today. The driver gives me the 10-days contract to sign, and my boat has been unloaded, so I can test it. I keep an eye for anything that may be wrong with it or might fail in the future. Although this is a nice boat, so far looks like what I anticipated. Thank you all once more! Definitely wouldn't purchase it if it wasn't for your advice guys.
