I am in the service and was transfered from Islamorada to Seattle in June of 2011. I had little notice to prepare for the move and had to find something to do with my boat quick. I left it with Islamorada Boat Center (IBC) to sell under consignment.

They told me that they couldn't keep the buyer waiting and assumed that I would be ok with the price since I didn't call back right away!! I told them that this was unacceptable, reaffirmed that my bottom line was still $18,000, and told them that I was going to move the boat to a different dealer. IBC's general manager called me back and said that they had been sitting on the boat for a long time and needed to make a profit on it (this is completely understandable).
