Reviews of Buster's Auto Salvage Yard (Scrap Yards)

milianomark .

DO NOT BUY A CAR FROM THESE PEOPLE!!! I had a major component failure the day after purchase and a breakdown. I called them and asked for assistance even a used part since they are a salvage yard...they wouldn't even talk to me and avoided my calls.CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED!

I Found them thru post on Craigslist. I was looking to buy a 2007 Nissan Murano for $3,000. When I got there A man met me at the entrance. He was a fast talker from the beginning. I checked out the car and noticed it wasn’t in good condition like how he said it was. When I started asking the normal questions that a person would when buying a car like, can I see the car fax, the miles, what some issues with the car etc...He got irritated and shouted “ look so you want the car or not!” I got uncomfortable and asked to test drive the car. The engine didn’t sound to good but no check engine light was on. As we got back to the dirty office. I asked for the VIN number to get insurance and he stated rushing me and said “If I don’t pay the $3,000 right now then I need to leave!” The guy was beyond rude. He’s a fast talker and over talks you. He damn near pushed me out the door once I refused to hand over the money! Why would I ever pay for a car without a title, insurance and everything else. I was honestly scared that he was going to rob me. He only takes cash and he into illegal activity. He didn’t care about anything but money. IF YOUR THINKING OF DEALING WITH HIM...DON’T.

Should really be a ZERO star but that is not an option. The person I dealt with (a heavy set guy) was extremely rude when I asked several question on a vehicle that was posted on Craigslist. It was posted on there as a private owner/seller, obviously it is a business. So since it is a business, I asked for a carfax and he got extremely angry. He said that used car dealerships do not provide carfax and that the car was in great condition. Which was an extreme LIE because you can visual see that it was recently painted and two of the tires looked like racing slick tires. Those were just some of the issues I saw in the 45 seconds I spent looking at it.

You will not find nicer or more honest people to do business with. I was stuck at my house with a flat tire, needing to get to work. I called them and told them i had no way to get there to buy the tire. They sent their guy to pick up my tire and rim, go back to their place, fix it with a new tire then brought it back and even put it on for me. To top it all off, all they charged me for was the tire. If you need a salvage yard there is no where else to go for the best service around. I can't say enough good about this place.

Tommy is the best guy to deal with. His prices are very reasonable too...

I don't know what "DJ" is talking about. The owners are not at all liars or thieves, they are the most honest people around. Here is my experience... I was calling around looking for a transmission stupidly telling the people i only had $1,000 to spend and of course getting prices ranging from $950 to $1300 (i don't know what i was thinking) Anyway i called Busters and told them the same thing asking if they could beat the lowest price i got of $950. They told me the trans i needed was only worth about $500, and they only charged me $450 which included removing it from the other vehicle and a 3 month warrenty. The trans i got from them even had lower milage then the others. I had it installed in my car and its running great now. THANK YOU BUSTERS!!! For being so honest and saving me over $500.00. I Will Never Do Business Anywhere Else, especially after seeing how Dishonest the other companies were when i told them how much i had to spend. If you really want great, honest old fashoned service, there is no comparison. GO TO BUSTERS!!!

I was trying to buy a 1999 Chevy tow truck...I sent a check in the mail for 1,000 dollars I live in Atlanta GA so I was trying to put a deposit down for Sam to hold it for me...I sent the check overnight...Sam was trying to tell me he did not receive the check...so I called the post office to see what the hell is going on the post office assured me that the check got there...I told Sam look the post office assured me that is was there...they have GPS on the trucks so they can tell if the check got there...this man began to tell me I was a scamming him...I said look I am not scamming you I took I picture of myself my Driver's license and my check book...he began to call me a monkey he was very very rude...he has a split personality because the minute I told him I knew the check was there he started flipping out...then he lied and said he did not receive the check because I forgot to get the check sent by cirtifed mail so he could sing...I told him that...my guess was he was going to deposit the check in his account this was a Friday when the check got there he was like just wait till Monday to see if it come's...so if you thought? I was trying to scam you why not tell me you got the check in the first place.. he only started acting crazy when I told him I know he got the check...DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DO NOT MAKE ANY BIG PURCHASE FROM THESE PEOPLE HE LIED ON THE LISTING and if you read more reviews other people has had the same problem...Do Not Trust these people

I called needing several parts for my daughters Chevy Cavalier. I spoke with the lady in the office and she couldn't be nicer. She said she would have to check on all the parts and call me back. I figured I would not hear from them again. She called me back about 15 minutes later apologizing for it taking so long saying she wanted to be sure what parts they had. Well they did not have all the parts I needed so she actually gave me the names and phone numbers of other junk yards in the area that may have the parts they did not have. That is good old fashioned service. I called the places she suggested and even though they had all the parts I needed I did go to Busters to get the parts they had just because the customer service was so good with the girl in the office, and the guy in the yard was as nice as can be. He took the parts off for me right then and there. I read some of the negative comments and all I can say is anyone can have a bad day. I have called for more parts for my other cars and been back once or twice and I always had a great experience. I will continue to give all my business to this place and Highly recommend them to all!!

just called for scrap car price. got a quote on the low end of all the places I called today (several of them). This place was one of the closest. The guy said he will not make any money if he pays any more than the quote and "will stay home" if he doesn't make $. not cool at all and probably a bunch of sheisters. would not recommend.

Sylvia Cuevas

Beware do not buy any vehicles from this lot they are thieves and give you a run around....we put $300 down on a vehicle we were interested after Sami told us to go home and think about it. We decided we did not want the vehicle and have been getting a run around between Cyndi and Sami for the last three weeks, still waiting to get our deposit back.

Once I told the owner that his price for the used part was higher than the dealership's price for the same new part, he said he didn't have time for me and didn't need my business.

MY ACCOUNT

Great place to buy a car. Called the number on the ad and spoke to a very nice woman who was very knowledgeable about the car. I told her i would be in to see it but could she provide me with the VIN number first. She texted me right away with it. I was hitting traffic coming from out of state to see the car. I called and they waited over an hour for me. I got there and the man i dealt with, I think his name was Tommy let me test drive the car for 1/2 an hour. I checked it out, liked it and bought it. It is a very nice car, I got for a great price (I paid less than the asking price, they are very willing and easy to negotiate with) The lady I spoke with, Cindy was very quick with my paperwork and was even able to provide me with a temp tag so I didn't have to drive back to pick up the car. Highly Recommended!!!! Great prices, easy to work with.

Called a number for a car for sale on Craigslist for my daughter. I went out to see it and though I was surprised that it was a business, It is not a dealership. The owner explained that they get repo's from banks and also Impound cars. I was concerned that I was looking at a salvage car but the guy showed me the title and said I could pull a carfax if I wanted to, as they don't. Hey it's a $2,000 car, not something I am paying 50 grand for, so I am not that worried about it. Their was a few minor issues like 1 window not working but I was able to negotiate a great price way below KBB. My daughter loves the car and it runs great. Great car at a great price. I will definitely buy from them again. If you are looking for a cheap car you have to expect it won't be perfect and they won't pressure you to buy it either. They have a take it or leave it attitude which I like.

Denny Torres

This is not the place to go to if your looking for a cheap deal...his prices are high but he will most likely have your hard to find parts...like the man said "when you can't find the parts anywhere else..you come and pay my price" I paid $150 for some parts I would have traveled out of state to find...if your not trying to lowball the man on the price he will be nice but if you complain he can be rude . I don't mind him. I only come here when I can't find what I need elsewhere great place for parts..steep prices but I don't mind..this isn't shoprite...customer service is not priority..cash is

Horrible place super expensive fails to mention you have to pull your own parts

Ted Krainski

Bigger than I thought

Deya Dem

If I can give them 5 trash cans and 5 negative stars I would!!!!!!!!! SAVE YOUR LIFE SAVE YOUR MONEY DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT BUY FROM THESE SCAM ARTIST!!!!!!! #WARNING

I had done business with them in the past and went there to look at a used car that I saw posted on Craigslist. I looked at a few cars and was honestly told of any issues they thought the car had. I looked at a Toyota and was allowed to test drive it and even said I was welcome to bring a mechanic to come check the car out before I buy it. It is a used car actually this one was a repo so if you don't check it out first you cant complain. I checked the car out myself made an offer and they accepted and so far I am very happy with my purchase.

Carlos Garcia

Prices r not as you expected but reasonably alright

James Havens

Descent family owned business. Always friendly and willing to help. Prices are very fair

Sandy Daly Daly

This place is no good a lot of Fraud and scam is going on there

JOHN JOHNS

went to look at a truck from craigs. drove it, ran good but found window not working was able to easily negotiate a better price. guys are great and easy to deal with if you dont try to lowball them. prices are pretty good all around.

Bass Merica .

Over charging for car parts! Literally wanted to charge me 150% more than new price. No thanks!

I agree with John, there should be a zero rating. Buyers BEWARE! Thought I was doing business with an individual based on Craigslist posting. I should have turned away when I saw the word Salvage....however I proceeded to go look at the car having driven an hour to get there. LI ked what I saw, so put a $100, then came back the other day with a mechanic friend to check car out. Owner didn't like questions and totally freaked out , slammed car close, started shouting for us to leave, he doesn't want our business. It was bizarre. Maybe drugs? Don't know, never seen anything like that before. Crazy, rude, unprofessional, cheats, liars...You are warned..

Mikka Johnson

I called this morning to see if they had any parts for my truck. The woman that answered the phone was very rude. She totally disregarded what I initially said to her. This is the second place that I have called this morning where the person is just rude and unprofessional. Is this the norm for people that work at salvage yards? Customer service should exceed no matter the place of business. I am pretty sure that this place has a lot of military people that they serve. As a active duty member myself, I will definitely spread the word of the lack of professionalism and customer service. I couldn't even ask my question so I politely hung up.

R Cauley

Do not buy a vehicle from them. Sold me a deathtrap with the frame rusted out, almost lost complete control while driving and suspension parts came off frame. Called and was told they are not a shop and don't know what they're looking at, find that hard to believe when their "Mechanic" told me they didn't have the part to fix, when they told me a vehicle within the year range was available. Stopped returning calls and ignored. Should not have a business liscense let alone ability to sell vehicles from their place of business. Buyer Beware

Chanel Thomas

Bought a car off them the guys seem helpful and like they knew what was going on . I should of know the price was to good to be true. Where he said it only need this one part it ended up needing a rebuilt motor . I could of bought the car off a dealer for the amount of money I am having to spend on this car.

Zach Dobovich

Contacted this business for some pricing on recycling materials, the representative was very unprofessional and was quick to hang up the phone.

Big Harvey

They sell scrap cars as running vehicles! They have been sued many times and go as far as forging signature to sell the junk they claim to be a running car. Ask about the liens against the business and how times they've been in court and lost. I know it's true because I was involved in one of them. Shady no good business. Say it's not Buster!?

Curtis Miller

Go else where and get a better deal. Asked how much a pinion yoke would run me if I were to pull it. Was quoted $50 when the part was $40 new shipped. I informed the ??owner/employee?? about how the price was a rip off! His response "how do you expect me to make money, my parts are obviously good because they are on cars that were working" please tell me the logic in this??? Contacted Blaceys salavage, they quoted me $20 but did not have the part. Went to Tilghman's and I was able to get the yoke and the whole damn driveshaft for $50 and I didn't even need to drag my tools out to the yard to get it. I'll never go to this yard again, and I'll be sure to let all my buddies on Fort Dix know to not waste their time with this joke!

Suzanne Messmer

The guys that own this place were extremely helpful and kind. They let us borrow tools since we didn't remember to bring any. They also lent us some manpower. I will recommend this place to anyone in need of parts.
