i would have given a good review, but i got ripped off here unfortunately. moe sold me 4 "tires brand new condition" for $340. when i got there, he admitted 1 wasnt as good as the others. i had driven from philly bc i had a bad tire on my car, so i still got them. that 1 needed additional air at the time. 3 days later, it was notably very low, needed refilling. i let moe know that 1 tire was no good. he said it was on him, he'd cover it, so i went to a salvage tire spot, got a replacement for $50 & sent info for reimbursement. he always responded promptly, but now hes been dead silent for a week to multiple requests. seemed like an decent person & im saddened to get ripped off by him - i overpaid for these, ended up with a set not at all better than what i went there with tbh, bc he REALLY inflated / talked up what he'd deliver - both initially on condition , and then promising to cover what was clearly his fault, selling me a tire that didnt hold air / had a split as "brand new condition." BUYER BEWARE - youre about to get talked up and ripped off. he doesnt stand behind what he says.

Salvage yard that often lists parts for sale on facebook marketplace. I picked up some parts that were not as shown in the pictures provided. I was able to negotiate on price, but others might not be so lucky. Definitely worth it to look at parts in person before paying.

Deserves zero stars. I tried to buy a car from them which they said needed a fan which they would get on Monday. That turned into another day and then nothing. They kept giving me the run around which is totally unprofessional.

I would put 0 stars terrible place, they said they had a part I needed I drive 30mins to the place and they tell me they don’t have it.Ridiculous wasted my time and gas, on top of that guy didn’t know what a Purge Valve was. Wouldn’t trust them with any automotive answers.

So disappointed in the service I received. I was referred by a relative and took both cars there and referred my dad. He was charged 900.00 for some transmission work and 3 months later his transmission went. They claimed the transmission was fine and the 900$ was for mounts . My car was leaking oil they fixed it and I drove it home 5 mins away oil was spewing everywhere. I had it towed back and they gave it back and now the hood cannot open and they said that's my liability. Mind you they called me to tell me the line came a loose while they had it. Same they put a temporary fix on it. Terrible they would not return calls or work with me to fix it and the car still leaks. Horrible please save your money . Do not take your car here they are not reputable or professional. Nice guy but even the devil was an Angel. BEWARE
