Default My cars idle is messed up bad

I will start the car and it wil jump to about 1200 then drop to like two hundred and then jump back to around 1200 and warm up once warm the car will idle at around 8-900. I will pull up to lights and the cars idle will jump to 1200 and drop and do the same untill the car eventually has a normal idle. Just today the car's idle dropped to around 500 and I took the car home. I am very concerned the car is tuned and it has been doing this since I recieved it not the sudden drop in idle. Any help would be much appreciated.
