Not a business/owner with integrity. Sold me a bad product and would not refund my money. After…read moreseeing his reply on Google I'll add he is dishonest as well. I wanted a spare key and fob for my Silverado. I called around and choose Skeltons because they are local and I like to support local small businesses. He had me come in a week later to get the key made and fob programmed to my truck. After waiting way too long to have a key made he finally ran out of blanks and failed to make a usable key. So I returned a week later to get the key made...I will add every time I set up a time to meet him at his store I had to call after I arrived as he was never there and I would have to wait for him to show up. So he finally handed me a key and I left. The next time I drove my truck (not my daily driver) the key fob failed to unlock my truck and when I tried the key, that worked to start the truck, it would not unlock the door. I was near the auto parts store and replaced the battery in the fob and was able to get in my truck. I contacted him and made arrangements to meet him at his store. I told him during this meeting that "if this thing is going to eat a battery per month I don't want it!" and he agreed by saying "yes sir". He couldn't make a new key as he ran out of blanks again. He told me to check later and he would replace the key. I contacted him a month later and he had the blanks and we set a time and day. He didn't show and I had to call him. This time instead of coming he stated he would come by my work later and make the new key. When he showed up I gave him the original key to copy and the key fob stating it failed again and I want a refund and I went back in to work. He called saying he finish. I went back out. He handed me the key and fob and said he replaced the battery and he jumped in his truck and left. Well the very next time I tried to use the key fob it was dead. At this point the key fob worked maybe 5 times and had 3 batteries in it. I called to arrange the return of the faulty product. He asked my name and a few minutes later he mumbled something I couldn't understand and hung up on me. Then would not answer the phone when I called back several times.

He then says, you will have to wait a couple of hours, and I will be late. I called again at 7pm, 9pm and midnight and no word. I do not understand why it was so hard to call back after knowing you could not come just to let me know there is no way you could make it. I waited hours!

Immediately after posting this review the man called me back and told me that he was going to contact his lawyers and sue me for slander if I didn't remove this review. Do NOT do business with this guy, like the other locksmith warned me, he will not only try to scam you, but will then threaten you for placing an honest review on Yelp!
