In October of 2021 we called this company to what we thought was to junk a car that needed a repair to costly to want to keep. Quoted over the phone $750 dollars. We drove the vehicle to his business location. Where he proceeded to try and tell us the catalytic converter was not the original and basically tried to say car was worthless. It was very clear that we were being lied to by the driver. However we did not want the liability of this vehicle and settled for $320. This is not where the story ends. Last week we got a notice that the vehicle we gave up to be junked, was left abandoned on a street in Dolton. Which means this guy really made out like a bandit with this vehicle. The person who answered the phone I had to ask him multiple times for his first name, but his voice, it was all to familiar it was the same guy from a year ago. Be very cautious using this business, take pictures that he takes possession of the car, be sure to mail back the Seller information to the state. This guy sold this car, I am guessing without a title. Because whoever took possession of this car, never registered it. The man told me he would call me back, did not verify he had my number, and when I called him back, he told me I never sold him the car.

The worst place to go to pick up a car, only two trucks and the wait is more than 40 minutes and without reducing the time and also the office is empty, if you try to see why they do not notify you to arrest you, they always treat you well evil. I recommend that if you can avoid this place do it

Easy. Knowledgeable. Friendly. Fast. All the things u want when ordering anything over the phone let alone auto parts. Mike was awesome, someone might say his service was "rock" solid.

Tried to get someone on the phone to check vehicle mileage (was not on website) because it’s a 30+ min drive for us and would be a waste of gas and $ admission to go and check ourselves. Was hung up on once and when finally got a representative on the phone, was told this is the “wrong” line for the question and then the line went radio silent. Incredibly horrendous and lazy service. I am incredibly disappointed as I usually had ok experiences in person. Edit: if your phone system is going to prompt customers to go to your website instead of actually helping your customers, at LEAST have all the information on the website.
