I was very pleased that my vehicle was sold by Streetside. I was disappointed by the lack of communication. When I consigned with them, I asked Dave if he would please send me a quick email when Streetside. I was disappointed by the lack of communication. When I consigned with them, I asked Dave if he would please send me a quick email when the car was listed. He said no, it was too difficult. I then contacted him about 45 days after it was listed to see what, if any, attention my car was getting. He didn't really know, but he did say he thought one guy looked at it a few days ago. Do they not keep track of the number of calls on the vehicles? Or the number of looks it gets? I never heard from Streetside again until Ellen contacted me that the car was sold which was about 3 weeks from the end of my consignment. I realize that there are a lot of cars there, but customers are selling their 'pride and joy' and an occasional contact would go a long way. Would I consign there again, yes. They did sell my car. But not one thank you from anyone for using them.Perhaps next time there would better 'customer care' to the seller. More

The consignment process was easy. There's no way I could have gotten the sale price that their reach gets. It's way better than marketplace. I don't mess with "tire kickers" and I don There's no way I could have gotten the sale price that their reach gets. It's way better than marketplace. I don't mess with "tire kickers" and I don't have to deal with buyers finding funding. Streetside keeps the vehicle indoors, they market the car, they answer the inquiries, and they help the buyer secure financing. I just wait for my check!!! I couldn't be happier More

At the root of it all, they're still salesmen and care about nothing but the bottom dollar. While I was unable to drive after surgery, I called about a car, was told it ran good, A/C just "needed service" about nothing but the bottom dollar. While I was unable to drive after surgery, I called about a car, was told it ran good, A/C just "needed service" to blow cold, and was reassured it checked all the boxes I wanted in a classic. 1. Looks good from 20 feet away, didn't care much about being a "pure" car. 2. Had to be road-ready to drive with nothing more than minor tune-up items. Fluids, belts, hoses.) 3. Not full of body filler or rust. Well, I purchased the car over the phone, and have now that I've recovered from surgery, I've already spent over $3,000 on a carb, fuel pump, new distributor, calipers, rotors, drums, brake likes, booster, etc. I still haven't driven the car in almost a year after purchasing it, because it's utterly unsafe. There are multiple bolts missing from the bellhousing, because the bolt holes are stripped in the block, the clutch is shot, water leaks in through the rust holes in the cowl, the wiring has been cut and twisted together in several places, the radio doesn't have power, the HVAC system as a whole is missing behind the dash (Has controls, but no wiring or linkage connected,) fuel was leaking from the feed line where clamps were never installed, half of the Air Conditioning system is MISSING, and the list goes on. When I contacted Streetside, the Sales Manager attempted to bribe me with a $300 to remove my negative (but honest) review, after telling me "I should have hired a better person to inspect the vehicle for me before purchase." The review stays, Michael- until Streetside either buys the car back, or pays for the repairs. More
