“Great little site on where to find local auctions by...”

Alex L.
9/13/10

Great little site on where to find local auctions by zip code or by where you live but I am not sure if the local auctions are all legitimate. They do not seem to screen them and just list many local auctions. Still a great place to find cheap local auctions and real goods. Better then these so called fake penny auctions but requires much more work going to a local auction and buying what you want for cheap.

After reading all the reviews wish had done earlier Am blocked from using any auctioneers on here even the ons i had been using before all because of my score in there which i have gained mostly because i chose to live in Australia and over 95 percent of the bad scores were for auctioneers not shipping to here I thought had done the right thing by using a freight forwarding conpany over there and emiled that happeing to them evenspoke and lft messages to them same answr always nothing they can do no wonder their ranking is so low even auctioneer companies i have had no problems with before are not allowed to deal with me anymore

Never again trust anyone on any of these coins auctions. They clean, misrepresent or outright give false information as to the condition, grade and photos!

The people at Hur-Brow Auction house in Gloucester, Virginia are crooks. They play the bait and switch game. Would not go back to their auctions.

The new web page tells you how far away the auction is. But it doesn't show a map anymore of where it's at.

Why have the new owners gone and screwed up a good site. If you don't change it back I hope you go bankrupt!

Absolutely hate that auction zip got rid of calendar. Whose bright idea was that? Made the site a pain to use. Looking for new site.

I am absolutely livid and frustrated with AuctionZip(Invaluable) and Vogt Auctions. I placed a bid on AuctionZip (Invaluable) which is one of the online platforms Vogt uses for their auctions. I was approved and placed a bid on an item over a week and a half prior to the auction. During the auction, my bid was passed over and unable to bid live via AuctionZip. I had the high/winning bid by $150 compared to the person who ended up winning the auction using LiveAuctioneers as their platform. I confirmed this with the live feed of the auction on YouTube, as well as talking directly to the owners of Vogt. If a platform is deemed to not work, why are they using this platform? I have been looking for this very specific item that came up for auction for more than 4 years and was willing to pay good money for it. I rightfully should have won but neither Vogt or AuctionZip (Invaluable) can or will do anything for me. I am left out to dry for something I should have rightfully won. I sold items that I can no longer get back to ensure I had the money for this specific lot. I passed over other lots in the auction to ensure I was able to keep bidding on the specific lot. I am furious with Vogt and AuctionZip (Invaluable) for this injustice. I have screenshots and video proving that I was the high bidder and should have won. But the owner of Vogt said there's nothing he can do for me. It's safe to say they have lost my business. I understand that this is not all Vogt's fault, as AuctionZip was the main point of failure, but the fact that they use this platform will continue to use it is absolutely wrong. I have witnessed many auction houses stop live bidding to ensure their online platforms are synched and working correctly, however this was clearly not done with Vogt. An absolute embarrassment of an auction house!

Always used auction zip to find auctions in my area or if I was traveling to another area. It is impossible to use the new format. BRING THE CALENDAR BACK FOR THE EASE OF USE BY CUSTOMERS.

This site is good to find local auctions, but the constant pop-ups are so annoying! If there were a better option I would use it.
