Seeing a lot dealer gripes I wanted to share my good experience with two different dealers. I bought my LX-150 at Vespa Jersey City last year. They were really friendly, patient, very helpful, and a few blocks from my apartment.
I then moved out of the area before my first service was due and found Metro Scooter in Northvale, NJ. Great guys, awesome service, and about a 15 min. ride from my new apartment. Hats off to all of you, maybe I'm just lucky.
Think I'm gonna go buy a Lotto ticket.

Not luck, hard work and dedication. Elizabeth at Vespa JC runs a good operation and us folks here at Metro Scooter (aka Vespa Northvale) work hard to ensure every customer is satisfied with our work. If only all dealers were like that eh?

Yeah not luck. I think we tend to hear a disproportional amount of stories about a few bad dealers. I am (maybe naive) of the belief that most are honest businesspeople that are trying to make an honest living.

Thanks for posting some good.

Hats off to Vespa Orlando. Bruce and David are the brothers that own the place. They are laid-back scooter riders who don't take the business end too seriously but do take the make the customers happy side seriously. Can't recommend them enough.

+1

Bruce is one of my heroes in the Vespa world, he is "all that" on the east coast.

Best,

Scoot Richmond in Richmond, VA has always been good to me. Chelsea and crew are the best! Honest and great service.
