I was in a verbal business agreement where I purchased a service truck for my aunts bf to get started because his credit was bad.
He was supposed to pay the payments every two weeks and the insurance and he did until he got into coke and started missing payments.
He bought a service body threw a company that he had to pay back by working and he gave his tool box as collateral,he ended up selling it to pay for the box but now I told him I’m taking my truck back and selling it to pay it off and get it out of my name,the company that put the box on said they still own the box and never transferred ownership to my aunts bf.I was told it’s been payed off and the company installed it on the truck,now i have all his tools and the truck with the box on it and I’m not sure what to do,he told me before we would sell the tools to make the payments and now he wants his tools back and the company wants the box back
