Why Shelby Township sellers get more from the actual buyer

A lead broker sells your phone number and takes a cut before anyone even looks at the car. We are the yard. Shelby Township is our main Macomb County pickup area — a lot of half-ton pickups with 200,000-plus miles on them. Because we part out the vehicle ourselves, we can pay for the drivetrain, the catalytic converter, the wheels and the clean body panels instead of a flat scrap number.
