A Process Worth Travelling For
When it came time to sell his vehicle, Alex was looking for a process that was straightforward, well managed and backed by people who understood the market and the vehicle.
After being disappointed by another provider locally, Alex made the decision to travel over 160km to Burns & Co’s Newcastle showroom – a decision that paid off.
“I had actually looked at going through another company locally, but they just didn’t have the knowledge of the vehicle. That’s what led me to Burns & Co.”
A Knowledgeable Team from the Start
From the initial enquiry through to drop-off, Alex valued the team’s understanding of the vehicle and clear communication throughout the process.
“Phil was great from the beginning – very knowledgeable. That gave me confidence to go ahead and bring the car up.”
As the campaign progressed, Alex also worked closely with Ashley, particularly in the final stages.
“Ashley rang me and put a proposition to me. It was an honest offer, and we moved forward from there.”
A Smooth Auction Experience
While Alex followed the auction live, he found the process simple and easy to understand.
“I watched from beginning to end – it was straightforward. The car was well described and everything ran as expected.”
A Result in Line with the Market
Importantly, Alex approached the auction with realistic expectations and was happy with the result achieved.
The vehicle sold for $125,561 (incl. buyer’s premium), in line with both his expectations and current market conditions.
“It wasn’t an amazing, amazing result, but given the market, it was what I expected. I was happy with it.”
A Confident Recommendation
For Alex, the overall experience stood out for its ease, communication and honesty throughout.
“I was very happy with the whole process. If I was to do it again, I’d be giving Burns & Co a call first.”
Having compared his experience to other providers, the difference was clear.
“They just didn’t have the knowledge – that’s what made the difference for me.”
With a smooth process, informed guidance and a result aligned to expectations, Alex would confidently recommend Burns & Co to others.
“100% I’d recommend them.”
