After researching reviews, asking around the automotive industry and trusting the process, Sam says selling his prized Ford Model A Hot Rod through Burns & Co “exceeded expectations.”
Before handing over the keys to his cherished Ford Model A Hot Rod, Sam did exactly what many prospective vendors do.
He researched.
He read Burns & Co’s Facebook reviews, spoke with people in the automotive industry and sought genuine feedback before deciding where to consign his vehicle.
The verdict was overwhelmingly positive.
After experiencing the process himself, Sam says those recommendations were well deserved.
“I researched Burns & Co, read the Facebook reviews and asked around the automotive industry. Everything I heard was true.”
A straightforward process from start to finish
From his first conversation with Vehicle Specialist Phil Shaw through to auction night, Sam says what impressed him most wasn’t sales pressure or promises—it was the professionalism of the team.
“Everything was spot on.”
“There was no hard sell. It was all straightforward and honest.”
Sam said the communication throughout the process made selling his vehicle easy, with clear advice and realistic expectations from the outset.
“I’d give Phil 10 stars.”
While reflecting on his experience, Sam was full of praise for the team, particularly Vehicle Specialist Phil Shaw.
“I’d give Phil 10 stars.”
He later contacted Burns & Co again simply to ensure his feedback reached management.
“Phil is a true asset to Burns & Co.”
“He’s so down to earth. It’s hard to find people like that.”
A team focused on doing the right thing
Sam also spoke highly of the auction itself, saying he was impressed with the professionalism shown throughout the campaign and on auction night.
He appreciated that the advice was genuine and that the team focused on achieving the best possible outcome rather than simply trying to secure the consignment.
“The service was excellent.”
“Everything was really well done.”
A result that exceeded expectations
When the hammer fell, Sam couldn’t have been happier with the outcome.
His Ford Model A Hot Rod found a new home, delivering a result that exceeded what he had hoped for.
Reflecting on the experience, Sam summed it up simply.
“I’d rate Burns & Co 150% for service and quality.”
“I’ve already recommended Burns & Co to other people.”
