I went to M&N when my mechanic nephew, who has looked after my car for years, moved to the Island. At M&N they are honest and VERY fair in fees for service. They will not sell you on things that you don't need, or inflate the prices of parts. They were able to take me right away and also did the needed repair very quickly. I will never go anywhere else and am so relieved to know I have a mechanic that I can trust. Thanks Sov!

I went in here and every staff member I dealt with (there were a few, front desk and mechanic etc) and all of them were courteous, polite, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful. They found me 4 suitable replacements for an extremely good price. They were dead honest about the level of wear being high, and cautioned me accordingly. These tires were absolutely in road-worthy condition, just worn, and I appreciated that they were so conscientious about safety and so on. On top of all that, after I delivered all 4 slashed tires still on the rims, they had them mounted and filled for $20 each and it was done in 40 minutes. These guys are honest, fair, and fast.

I deliver frozen dinners to seniors for a company called Heart to Home Meals. The other day as I…read morestopped at a location the driver's side front tire blew out. I still had dinners to deliver and although I was driving a refrigerated van I was concerned about dinners thawing. I was able to limp the van to OK tires on West 3rd Avenue in Vancouver. I told them my situation, and although they were busy they took the time to look at the van, their technician found a tool kit under the driver seat (I didn't know there was one) and was able to lower the spare tire from under the van. They changed the tire for me and I was on my way within 15 minutes. I cannot express just how helpful, understanding and efficient they were. I, and my boss were extremely thankful and we can only say that their service was above and beyond anything we expected. Thank you very much. All of you that helped get me back on the road showed the absolute highest degree of professionalism. Five stars is not enough, you deserve 10!

When you walk inside and look at the display cases it all clicks. This business is a large well stocked Knife dealer. The Knifes in this store are the kinda sold for hunting mammals in the broadest sense of the word. I think the vast majorly of the stores Knifes real world use would be as weapons. Yes I am sure they have great kitchen Knifes a letter opener or two behind the counter. This place is well stocked, I asked the cleak if they wholesaler dealer and they told me this was a retail store. I looked around and decided that a Camouflage Hydration Pack would clash with my sold blue MEC bike panniers. Personally I don't feel this store fits in the City Centre Mall vibe but I guess variety makes a marketplace.

Having your older work van crap out on a busy road at the start of a busy schedule is possibly the…read moreworst luck you could have. I pulled it over to a quiet residential street, and the road was immediately covered in coolant. In short, not good! After some careful roadside diagnostics I realised that I would definitely need a mechanic's help to get a functioning pump going and reset my serpentine belt. I called a few places up, but Samson was the only one who could see it the next day. So I bring it in the next morning with a a new pump, ready to go but... it was defective! Had to rush an exchange and they redid the work ASAP. And the road coolant? A busted radiator! Totally unrelated, but they threw it in for a very reasonable labour rate and below market price on the radiator. So I got a pump installed and then reinstalled, my serpentine belt re tensioned, and a new radiator with install for well under $1000. Done after a single day, next day service. Amazing! And they noted another job that might need to be done soon (my van's 20 years old, go figure), but didn't pressure me to do it. Probably my best experience with a mechanic yet!

Small little honest mom and pop autobody shop. They were full but managed to take our car in anyway…read morewhich was nice of them. No gimmicks, no frills, but did good work for real cheap (due to the less expensive parts they secure). In the end though our wrecked controlling arm, trailing arm, etc was replaced for a very reasonable and inexpensive price, the alignment (which they don't have the machinery to do so they referred us to Pacific Alignment) cost us an arm and leg!! We do understand that alignments cost more money but we wish we understood their limitations because we might have just gone straight to Pacific Alignment instead, but I don't know if they would've reduced the price or not. It was just an extra hassle to move the car to Pacific Alignment to finish the work. However, I would still recommend this place because they're honest people doing honest work and they didn't charge us an arm and leg like the KalTire folks (we got a quote from them). However KalTire has great service and Samson's is more a mom and pop neighbourhood autobody. I would choose this place in a heartbeat because I love supporting honest small businesses, and this place is one of them!
