Anyone have experience with Lease Busters?

There are some pretty enticing deals on the site. Anyone have any experience with assuming leases, in general?

Never actually took over a lease with them but came close.
I lost out by a few hours on one and strongly considered the second before ultimately buying new.
In both cases, the individuals seemed very conscientious and accomodating. Nothing shady whatsoever.
While there are deals, it's always a danger taking over someone else's lease. I would look for some sort of extra wear and tear protection on the vehicle.

Not sure if this is available with BMW, but a friend was looking into taking over a lease on a Nissan and he mentioned that before handing over the lease the Nissan dealer would go over the car and check for damages that would be an issue at hand in time so you wouldn't get any surprises when returning the car. Not sure how much this really protects you (if something is missed maybe) and if BMW offer it, but it would be worth looking into.

Listed my previous car on LeaseBusters an 06' Infiniti M45.
I was askig for 5000$ in return for some of the cash i put down.
In a matter of a week my car was sold...
Every now and then i take a look at their website. You can always manage to find great deals...
