    Although I was told one price over the phone it did go lower upon arrival. However the car was 1hr out of the city, they came fairly quickly. My car didn't owe me anything it had ******* km engine blown and honestly I was ultimately happy with the price since I didn't have to pay for a tow truck to tow it somewhere or anything like that. I would recommend this company and was happy with them.

    ***BEWARE*** If I could give these guys zero stars I would. When I called yesterday I was told we would get $500 for our car. A car I already told them is going to cost me $3500 to fix because the timing chain is broken, with almost 300k kms. I gave them all the information they asked for and was up front about everything. We booked a time for today at 5pm. My husband was stuck in traffic and was going to be about 30 mins late, we told the tow truck driver that and he was ok to wait. I got a call from their office saying he could wait or go to the next call and come back afterwards, and that it wasn't a big deal. I didn't want to make anyone else wait so we agreed they would come back. A few hours later when the tow truck was at the car, ready to take it that said they would only give us $200, we got them to $275 and was told because the drive had to come back... if I was told that over the phone, I would have called an ****, asked my neighbor for a ride. But nothing was mentioned, and I was told it was not a big deal. Their website even states $300-2000, why give us a price and then come back with $200, with a fight to get to $275. Feeling lied to and cheated, so if that's something you like. Give these guys a call.

    This is a complete **** of a business that takes advantage of people in a difficult situation. First time they called me they promised $1,000 in cash guaranteed then the next day it became $900 in cash and by the time the tow truck arrived on the third day the best they could offer was $400. I They knew from the beginning my engine was not restarting but still told me $900 it only changed when the tow truck showed up because they knew I had limited options at that time. I confirmed the price with them on the phone verbally and even texted to confirm and they said yes both times and did not indicate at all it would change. It says all over their website they pay cash and at fair market value no matter the condition of the car however these are complete lies because they only offered e-transfer when the tow truck showed up and the price dropped by more than half. They also said on the phone and verified by text that they could do cash beforehand. Finally, I specifically scheduled a time with them for 4:30pm however they left me standing outside in the cold for over 2 hours with little follow up or explanation. I had to call them several times to find out when the tow truck would be showing up. Initially they were supposed to pick my car up from my mechanic at 4:30 but I got there early at 4:15 and when I called them they said oh yeah no problem they would be there in 15 minutes. Then when 5:00 rolled around and they were not there I called them and they said oh yeah the pick up is on the way would only be another 25 minutes. Then I get a call from the tow truck driver at 5:45 that they are stuck in traffic ** ******** on the other side of the city from were my mechanic is located *** *** ** *********. Finally close to 7pm the tow truck finally showed up.

    Horrible company! Agreed on a price for my ***** accord **** with ******kms on it and when they came to pick up the vehicle they offered 10%of the price we agreed to and then told me they are just scrapping it but they contacted me over a dozen times to come and pick it up??? So it seemed like they really wanted it. I would've taken the lower price of that's what we agreed to but the bait and switch was not cool! ??
