So I stumbled upon some videos on my old phone. These videos where of various car meets I visited. So I decided to get a few screenshots and upload them. They were disqualified because they where “sourced from the internet” every time I tried same thing. No problem I thought I’ll open a support ticket and resolve it with staff. no response. Further more the “experienced” game staff are apparently unable to distinguish the difference between an Audi TT and an Audi R8 as the one car that wasn’t disqualified, an r8, was labelled as a TT. If your image vaguely resembles something on the internet they determine it must be the same image and disqualify it. ### 1/5 — Worst! game! ever! *2020-10-04* They delete pictures of your own car and ban you saying you been using pictures from the internet absolutely rubbish and when you submit request for help it’s ignored! ### 5/5 — Amazing game! *2020-06-08* This game is absolutely fantastic, and i wish there were more games like it. However, if someone so happens to submit a cheeky stock photo, I do think that the punishment is slightly too harsh. Perhaps to combat this, maybe just delete the vehicle submission and perhaps add a ‘three strikes you’re out’ warning system? However, I still stand by my original point in saying that this is one of the best mobile games out there. ### 5/5 — Great game, simple concept, dedicated staff *2020-04-18* I have been playing mobile games for years and this is one that has always stuck on my phone throughout. The concept is simple, take a picture of any (production) car, and once it's priced by members of the community or game staff, that car can be sold for in game currency, or possibly even raced. The staff are always happy to help during the rare occurrence that a car is incorrectly priced, or if you have any other issues in game. You can also earn money in game just for correctly identifying cars that other users have spotted, and you can even bid on those cars. The game let's you play however you like, whether you want to capture, race, or price cars is completely up to you. As someone who has been playing since mid 2018 I can tell you that the developers are constantly looking for ways to improve the game, bringing massive updates such as racing and introducing new ways to play. In the recently released racing update, you can earn cash, xp, and even 1v1 for pink slips (you get the opponents car for a day). Racing involves real strategy, where even if the opponent has faster cars, you can still win by utilising your cars, tyres, and the track selection. If you don't want to race, there are still plenty of leaderboards that you can climb, which means there's lots of competition if you want to get to the top. There is also a discord server full of car enthusiasts where players can communicate with each other, or talk to staff/developers about the game. I recommend this game to anyone who is interested in cars. ### 4/5 — Great game apart from one thing *2020-02-04* If you happen across a really rare car, people will automatically think you’ve taken the picture from the internet and refuse it. Other than that it’s a brilliant idea and lots of fun. ### 1/5 — Was fun *2019-08-12* Apparently working at a car dealership being around cars all day every day means I took the photos off the internet yet when I have taken pictures off the internet they get accepted. Even took a picture of my sons remote control car and that gets accepted! Was fun until then ### 5/5 — Great staff *2019-02-16* The game is fun and addictive. And I got an almost immediate response when I submitted a complaint about my mustang. They fixed it and apologised. Very impressed. ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2018-09-26* Played this game months ago lots potential to be great until your banned or temp banned from the game due to seeing nice cars and the game saying your photos are used from the internet support don’t reply and couldn’t care less recently re started banned within 1day this time posting family vehicles nothing flash fords vauxhall ect I warn everyone great game gets you hooked then they screw you over and really don’t care about the players glad I didn’t pay any money to this game **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. Please leave us a message via the Help area of the app if you believe a block has been applied in error, we'll be happy to double check. We do put quite a lot of effort into trying to get this right. You should still be able to submit new photos from the camera of the app while blocked. ### 5/5 — Addictive Game *2018-06-09* So The Game is about taking pictures of cars and basically adding them to your garage which then you can sell Really Addictive ### 3/5 — Good but needs improvement *2018-05-20* It’s a good game/app, but it needs to be more of a game. The prices are miles out- I just paid minimum of 8grand for a 20 year old BMW because the minimum age I could put is 08? Should be able to type in your age and bid. Where do the cars go once you’ve priced them? It is hard to get the gist of things and it is not the easiest. Could benefit from an optional tutorial? Needs some improvement and with the right work done, this game could be highly addictive and very populated. **Developer response:** Hi. Thanks for your review! We have lots planned for the game, which we're working hard to bring to you as soon as possible. When you're pricing vehicles in your dealership, it's not taking your money, and you don't get the vehicle afterwards. You get a cut of the sale price if you correctly identified the vehicle. There is a short explanation of how dealerships work if you press the question mark button in the top right of a dealership screen. Please feel free to contact us in the support area of the game if you have any comments or need assistance with anything. ## Frequently asked questions about Chop Shop ### Does Chop Shop have ads?
