Lakeside Formula

I recently bought a pre-owned boat from Platinum and dealt with Billy Iantelli. This is my 5th boat…read morepurchase and 2nd long distance internet purchase so I consider myself experienced at it. Billy was amazing and his customer service was something you would expect at a Mercedes or Lexus dealer. I bought this boat sight unseen and my confidence in Billy allowed me to avoid a trip to Detroit from Phoenix. I found this boat on the internet after looking for about 6 months. I can tell you that you have to be VERY careful buying boats from out of state dealers. I backed away from a couple other boats and their dealers when they acted suspiciously. There are MANY scammers out there. Billy was extremely professional, handled all my concerns, facilitated the numerous inspections and went WAY beyond the normal call of duty. When the sale was concluded, he even arranged to store the boat for a couple weeks inside their warehouse until my transportation company showed up. When the boat showed up in San Diego, it was exactly what I expected and I was very happy. Billy did a phenomenal job and I highly recommend working with him if the opportunity arises.

Our sales person, Kayla, was incredible. She was enthusiastic, personable, always helpful, and highly knowledgeable. I was provided with video and photo updates and was even included in a facetime call while one of my accessories was being installed. We had in-water training with their amazing crew led by Blake prior to delivery. It was obvious that the entire team genuinely loves what they do and finds fulfillment in bringing joy to their customers. Thank you, Kayla, Danielle, and Dennis, for going above and beyond to make our boat buying journey so very special.

My boat was finally returned the following week. But it gets worse. GM Chris Anderson called me…read more He apologized profusely for his infamously obnoxious uncle, who is "not permitted to talk to customers". But while Chris was out of the office, Uncle Dave was reportedly causing offenses at a record pace. Still, Chris assured me that this would never happen again, that he'd be my only point of contact, that he'd provide his mobile number, and a substantial accommodation to keep me as a customer. All of this so I'd remove my first review, posted last month. I did. Then, naturally, everything Chris promised, never happened. Now a month later, and I haven't even been able to get Chris back on the phone. It gets worse. All of the service items that were supposedly the reason for my repeatedly canceled and delayed delivery appointments -- those likewise never happened. Not a single one of them. They charged me (in fact, they overcharged me by $150), but did absolutely NONE of the work that they promised me was completed before my boat was finally returned. When I was sold this 2024 Tahoe new last year, it was somehow missing a battery. I had to travel to Grand Rapids to pick up a replacement battery. Over the winter, they said that battery was installed; it was not. They said the stereo amp was fixed; it was not. They said the ladder was fixed; it was not. They said the boat was gassed up; it was not. They said it was detailed; it was not. They said the oil was changed; at this point, how could anyone reasonably believe that was done either? It gets worse. Not only was the boat not serviced but, incredibly, it was returned damaged. Whether in storage or on delivery, they bent the front door and front door latch and returned the bimini in pieces. You think they're finally taking care of things like professionals? Naah, I still can't get Chris Anderson or his service department on the phone. I purchased this boat to enjoy a leisurely family experience. With thanks to Anderson, it's been anything but.
