HiBid

It was easy to bid on this auction site. I like the multiple items that are available to bid on.

Hibid is a gathering place of auctions and doesn't have their own auctions. All auctions on hibid have their own rules that you must follow and it has nothing to do with hibid. If you have problems with a certain auction that doesn't mean you will have the same problem on every auction. These auctions pay a fee to hibid to use their services and are not the cause of any bidding or selling of item problems. I buy from auctions on hibid all The time, some are great, some are not. If there is a problem, contact the auction you bid with.

I have been a buyer at auctions hosted on the HiBid Platform for well over a decade, and purchased over 1000 items from various auctioneers on that platform. Auctioneers vary in quality, but the Hibid platform is wonderful

I searched through auctions of autographed sports memorabilia of Mickey Mantle, Joe Demagio, Ted Williams, etc. The certificates of authenticity are fake and so are the signatures. I have purchased several of these and took them to JSA for authenticity and they were all forgeries. Just a heads up to look up the certification companies and you will see fornyourself.

I have called 2 times for them to fix their app, it is a horrible app that on android and apple crashes at the start. Now it crashes and it will not allow me to proceed. I have lost thousands of dollars because of the app not working. It is glitchy at best. Two calls to Hibid in Ocala Florida has solved nothing but them trying to make me sound foolish. I have done everything their tech department told me to do, still nothing is resolved or fixed with the app. They tell me to go on the mobile website " it's the same thing " they tell me. It is not, it does not allow real time interaction between auctions like the app did. I have filed a complaint with the state of Texas over this. If I was a small item bidder, I would just say screw it. I invest thousands of dollars to make a return on my investment. When I am losing items because I am not notified of a live auction at that time than its time for them to fix their piece of junk app. I hope they monitor this post and fix it.

Scrolling down the catalog as bidding was done the page kept going from the catalog to a HiBid page. I would need to go back to get back to the catalog. Became so frustrating, I closed the page and turned off!

I bought over $10.000 worth of stuff from HiBid auctioneers and always paid for the merchandise yet I am told that my "HiBid score" is low and many auctioneers do not let me bid on their merchandise. Moreover, am not allowed to to sell there. I am switching to BidSpririt.

How can you bash a company that just supplies the format for auctioneers to sell on. Hibid isn't selling the items. If you need to bash someone blast the auction house. I buy all the time from auctioneers running auctions through hibid.com. If your getting bad items it isn't hibid you should have a problem with. DUH

I am a auction junkie, I usually bid on 4-5 auctions a month. I have been doing this for about 6 years
Now. I have found Hibid to be one of the best auction sites there is. It is very easy to bid and have found
Most of the auctioneers to be very pleasant and fun to work with. I would very strongly suggest them.

HiBid as a platform is just that - if you have any problems with the items posted on their site - they will tell you that you are on your own. NO help - even if it is egregious and obvious. My review is that you look ANYWHERE else if you are spending your money on items that are misrepresented on their platform.
I am now discontinuing use of their "software" as a buying opportunity.

I gave an auctioneer a 1-star rating on Google for numerous reasons although I left out details in the comments. In retaliation the auctioneer has blocked me from bidding in ALL HiBid auctions for LIFE. Nothing I can do so guess I'm screwed. How unfair is that?

It is very tedious trying to review new auctions. Each page has 25 auctions. Just say you have finished going through all the items in the 23 listed. You then have to go back to the list page and then back to the beginning auction and tab all the way back to get to the 24th auction. This is very tedious. I have brought this to the attention of Hi-bid several times and nothing is done to correct it.

Yes

Apparently somewhere on Hibid, sellers can leave feedback about the buyers. I apparently have some negative notes. When I tried to address/see them there is NOWHERE for me to go, and Hibid couldn't help get the information. Other auctioneers can see them but not me. I admit to occasionally forgetting I have a bid but I always try to pay and usually offer to compensate for the inconvenience. This is wrong, cause the auction houses are denying registering for auction based on this information, that I can't see or address. I will not use a company that is spreading such negative information about me. Makes me fill like I need a lawyer.

Constantly being overbid by bots on silver and coins. I know what the items are worth and no one would overpay the spot price of silver by 20% or more EVERYTIME! If you're gonna try to drive prices up, cheat smarter!

I decided to use this Auction service to save some money driving from place to place Looking at stuff I needed. I was able to have Fun and it was so exciting being able to look at the items and trays up-close without getting dirty and tired of looking at nothing I want.!. The best part was the surprise I got at being able to control my beds and follow Live at the Auction! What Fun, better than Hot sheds and spiders!
Thanks <^> HiBid for a great experience.

Was great and very easy to navigate the only thing that I didn 't like on my phone the bidding button and the red X to remove item is so close together it is too easy to hit the X when trying to bid when items are closing

My experience with Hi Bid was A1! The site was easy to maneuver and the bidding process was easy to understand and do. After bidding was over, I received an email invoice and paid and picked up my items the next day. Easy peasy! I will definitely be using Hi Bid again.

I was bidding on three rifle scopes. At the end of the auction I received a notice on their site "you may have won." I did not receive a verification weather I won or not. The Credit Card Company did not Let Hi I'd charge my Account. I then received a Charge for $14.27 that I did not make! The next day I looked at my bill pay and found a payment was going out to Sanford Healthcare accessories for $2131. 00. When I called the bank and the same $2131. 00 was listed to pay a different company. I have never had these problems before I went on the HiBid web site! I canceled my credit card. I do not understand why HiBid did not call me.

Bidding was very simple and user friendly. I was surprised how reasonable the items are!
The only issue I had was bidding in a Fire Pitt Table I saw it come up and it was going going!
So I bid on it and won! The problem was I read the description later on and it was only the Fire Table
"Shell"
WTH!
They say no returns but the other two things I bought were so cheap I just absorbed the cost
I told them I didn't want the Fire Pitt SHELL! When I picked up my items
It's kind of crazy you have such a short time to get your items. But the two young guys who helped me at the warehouse were very nice and pleasant!
The warehouse is easy to find and it wasn't that busy
Overall, the process was a good one
Buyer Beware! Read the full Description before bidding!
And make sure you can meet that short window to pick up the items you purchase
I recommend them! I will bid again!

I sent 2 messages and left a voice mail
Never heard back from anyone

I bid on a air fryer in good faith. After winning the item, paying for it, and driving 50 miles to pick it up, I opened the box to find a old used heavily NOT Working piece of garbage! I understand that these products are returns BUT I never thought they would be old used items! This thing was dirty and had been used for a long time, NOT A NEW RETURNED ITEM. All I got from them was,"all items are sold as is"
So. I guess I learned my lesson. Hi Bid Auction is a scam used to sell broken trash without any recourse for the buyer.
So BUYER BEWARE! They should be ashamed of themselves as they are crooks making a buck off of people who think they're getting a good deal on returned merchandise and finding out they bought trash!

HiBid has a very good search engine, bringing up what I want to see. There is a wonderful selection of various auctions and I have been very pleased with the ending prices. It is also easy to contact the various auctioneers with questions or instructions on picking items up or shipping. I have had experience with lots of online auctions and I find I return more and more to HiBid because of the good selection of things I am interested in, good prices, and the ease of bidding then paying and having thing shipped. The auctioneers all seem to be trustworthy and I have experience no scamming or fraud. I am very please in discovering this site.

A problem of an auctioneer getting my address wrong and then she wanted to charge me a correction fee. I contacted HiBid customer service who said to resolve it with the auctioneer.

I participate in a number of auctions on both HiBid and Proxibid. Of the two, HiBid has the better search tool. It allows me to be more specific in my searches. For example, I can use the abbreviation of "H&H" which stands for Holland and Holland which is a well-known British firearms maker. On Proxibid, I cannot do this.

For some reason it keeps kicking me off and I have to refresh the page otherwise it is great …. Ok I am using a new iPhone 15 I think I was having trouble because I had WiFi on and it was not helping but hurting
