It sounds like he still spent a decent amount of time to help you with your lease. You might want to send him a gift card to show appreciation. (In b4 landfill)

Please let the time spent on the deal and the outcome and compensation be between Ben and me. I was leaving a review for his services.

yesterday I scheduled a call on calendly for today at 8am but i didn’t get a call?
You’re not on my calendar . …
strange, I thought it was weird I didn’t get a confirmation email or something when I hit confirm
This is a simple review of my experience with Ben:
- We worked together for over three months as he pinpointed the vehicles with the best value in the St. Louis market. He helped us narrow down our search from numerous 3 row SUV’s to the QX60 and explained to my wife and I why there was value in that vehicle.
- During that time he was available whenever we needed him to check in with an update.
- We made two decisions in this process limited his ability to find us a vehicle and each time he worked with us to understand what we were asking of him.
- He willingly explained the details of the numbers to me and my wife as we worked with him and answered any and all questions we threw at him.
- We put our lease quest on hold because of some job concerns. I felt I owed him his fee because he had done all the work on our behalf and he refused.
- We plan on reaching back out to him when we do go back to market again, this was a great experience.
I’m very happy to recommend Ben to anyone.

Ben is a cool guy. I spoke to him today about using his services and he identified I wasn’t the right match right now for him. Rather than leave me high and dry he gave me great advice. Ben is a stand up guy and I wouldn’t hesitate to use him in the future.

Benedetto is an amazing part of this community, and an outstanding broker. He shopped around various vehicles for me… Jaguar, BMW, Maserati, you name it… Dealers were not willing to play ball a lot of times. He did not propose me any of the stupid deals they were offering, and we would laugh at some of the deals they threw at us. Instead we narrowed down the search to realistic vehicles that fit my budget and we were able to obtain (lease time constraints). He worked with me day and night- e-mails, phone calls, text messages, at least once weekly, if not several times a week… So much so that we became friends. At the end of the day I got the car that I needed, and he met all of my expectations, far ahead and beyond of anything I could have hoped for.
Thanks so much my friend. Highly recommend Benedetto.

Benedetto is a great broker and very easy to communicate with. He worked with me during day and night through phone calls and text messages. He provided great suggestions and ideas. With Benedetto’s help, I got an amazing deal on 2019 Volvo XC90 T6. I know Benedetto still holds several great deals in hand. I would suggest to talk to Benedetto immediately if you are in the market looking for an Volvo.
Thanks again for all the help.

More Kudos for Ben. He did a fantastic job helping me source an XC60. I love the car, it is exactly what I was after. Ben was extremely helpful in working with me to narrow down what I was after, based on his experience, as well as working the numbers for me on quite a few alternatives.

Had a great experience with Ben. I set up an appointment using his system for Thursday morning and he called about 10 minutes early ready to learn about what I was looking for. Although I am familiar with leasing, we went through all of it and talked about the market. I gave him a list of features and specs I was looking for and what I was looking for in a price range. He started working on it and let me know 2018 and 2019 prices and incentives are pretty similar so we should shoot for a 2019. The next day I found the exact car I wanted in terms of features, color, engine etc. and I sent over the stock number to him. So he now had a target and about 2 hours he secured the car and came in on budget.
This was a bit complicated as it was at another dealership than the one he works with so they had to do a transfer. Then I live 3 hours away so he arranged for the car to be dropped off at our house. On Saturday sure enough the car was dropped off, I signed the paperwork (which had exactly what Ben had told me it would be, no extra fees, bs, or other nonsense), and they handed the keys and that was it.
By far the easiest car buying experience I have had. Well worth the fee he charges if you don’t like spending the day at dealerships haggling or emailing every dealership around you and working a deal.
Thanks Ben!

Talked to @Benedetto last week about a Lexus lease. Very straight up, honest guy. He could not help me (Seattle / Portland is a tough market), but gave me some good advice. I appreciated his time and professional opinion. Thanks Ben!
