false advertising

By Brien Lee

Having just hit a deer Friday, the ad seemed to speak to me; Another Wisconsin Season Begins    Oh Deer! Did One Just Hit You?   A large buck pictured to the left of the wording; Come to Goff's For: Free Drive Thru Estimates, Extended hours, Insurance Claim Assistance, Prompt Delivery

I didn't have a problem with the ad until I drove to two of the closest Goff's locations after work to find both closed at the normal time. Called next day to learn hours haven't been extended at all. "We have a lot of ads out there." They didn't know which ad I was referring to.

"Maybe it refers to extended hours compared to other body shops in the area?" Pretty deceiving isn't it, especially when that can be quickly disproven with a couple quick phone calls?

Even though the Toyota is ten years old with over 98000 miles, we've chosen to keep collision and comprehensive insurance. It's paying off. The estimate we received from the body shop just down Grandview from us, Premier Body and Paint, Inc., is for $2000.00. We will be using them once we get the check. They estimated the damage after hours on Saturday afternoon.
