This is a fake organization. Very well set up with fake endorsements. Learned the hard way warning others

Thanks for sharing, philb4x4! It’s reassuring to know that even when something goes wrong, they handle it professionally. I’ll definitely keep an eye on everything during the inspection period.

I also just bought a 2021 John Deere Gator from Sivalyn Group. The process went smoothly overall, but one of the tires was damaged during unloading. The delivery driver noted the damage, and Sivalyn Group offered to cover the cost of the replacement. Aside from that, the vehicle was in perfect condition.

I spent a few days checking everything out, and I’m happy with the purchase. They were really professional about the issue with the tire, so I’d still recommend them.

Just wanted to give you all an update: The Caterpillar skid steer just arrived at my property. The delivery driver gave me a call 30 minutes before showing up to make sure my driveway was wide enough for the truck. The whole delivery went smoothly, and the machine looks great so far!

Even though Sivalyn Group seems legit from the stories here, I’d still say be cautious. Scammers often pose as real companies to get your money, especially when they offer deals that seem too good to be true. Always do your research before making any big payments!

I went down to Sivalyn Group’s office in Florida a few months ago to check out a piece of equipment in person. Their office is a quick drive from Miami International Airport. One of their reps, Mike, walked me through everything, and I got to test drive a 2018 Caterpillar 320 Excavator before making a decision.

After I was satisfied, I signed the contract and paid via bank transfer. They don’t accept cash, which seemed a bit unusual at first, but everything worked out fine. They’re definitely a legitimate business from what I experienced.

I actually dealt with Sivalyn Group last year and used their delivery and escrow service to buy a John Deere 310L backhoe. They delivered it to my property in Texas about 10 days after payment. I had a 10-day inspection period to make sure everything was working properly, but my mechanic checked it out within the first two days, and everything was in great condition. The whole transaction was legit, and the machine is running perfectly.

That makes sense. I’ve seen a few positive discussions about them on forums. If you’re comfortable with their process, then it’s your call. Just make sure you’re fully covered with their payment terms and delivery conditions before committing.

Thanks zinkracer. I actually called Sivalyn Group and asked if I could come to Florida to inspect the skid steer myself. They were pretty open about it and said I could visit anytime for a test run. I was all set to fly down, but after reading some good reviews online and the convenience of delivery, I decided to go with their delivery service instead.

Hey @zimasprite

When companies offer machinery at really low prices and don’t provide an in-person viewing option, it can be a red flag. There are a lot of scams like that happening online these days. I’d be cautious if I were you.
