Bids of Fortune Auction House Lot 51 Echo Blower Ending 30/08/24 Description made no mention of broken strap and damaged gas purge bulb. Pictures purposely hid these defects. When pointed out at pickup the gentleman told me that I could take it or leave it; he already charged my CC. These are clearly patent defects that could and should be mentioned in an online auction that has no opportunity to view the item in person. Will not be using this platform again.
I bid based off of my location, Indiana. As I'm watching the auction for items I bed on, they are saying May have won. I don't understand what that means, and when I looked up the contact address, there is an out of state address, though it originally gave a local zip code. I tried calling the number and it doesn't ring. I sent an email to the auctioneer, but I haven't gotten a response. Please help. 🙏🏾
I haven’t been contacted yet, Ave it says $2 per minute for emergencies.
I recently started buying from the auction, and I like it!

Will not be using this platform again.
Title is self explanatory. I went to pick up my items and they could not be found. Come to find out that one of the people there sold my items earlier in the week. So I won nothing. I did receive my money back but the entire purpose of doing an auction is to buy something neat at a cheap price. In my case it was some old bar signs that can be expensive. Disappointed
I have used them several times

Used a different hibid in the past.
I have been buying at auctions for some time now. Registry/Bidding/closing/watching/ search have all been quite easy.
The vendors policies and pick up procedures are an absolute nightmare?
Only some have proper working schedule booking! No contact numbers for support? It is pretty terrible when you want to arrange pickup in their short window timeframes?
While bidding on items, the count down timer was often off by several minutes. The app crashed multiple times causing me to loose out on items. Very frustrating.
Otherwise when working properly was good.
Absolutely was told from a friend about this online auction got amazing deals, the process was so easy, and felt secure in giving my information. Definitely will be visiting more Auctions thank you HiBid
I like the platform & the merchandise. It was slightly difficult to keep track of multiple items right at the end of the bidding. I lost the bid to a few things as it was my first time bidding. I thought the items went a little high for an auction site but now I know what to expect.
Other sights don't have the quality of jewelry and coins.
Great people to work with you will learn your different auction companies and will see who has the most items that you are interested in. I have been dealing with this site for 6 years and only had a couple of problems
Easy to get what I was looking for
Being a first time bitter I was really impressed with how easy. It was to participate. I loved the wide selection that they offer. Everything was clear, easily accessible, easy to understand, and seemed very, very fair. I especially like the fact that if somebody bids in suddenly at the end, they then add 2 minutes to the bidding. Picking my items up was extremely easy, the instructions on how to do it were perfect.
A friend got an exquisite piece of home décor from Treasury, and so I checked out the site. I found all kinds of things that I liked.
When it went to bid live, the refresh rate was either too fast, too slow, or sometimes froze up. For some reason it showed me winning an item I did not willingly or knowingly bid on. The only thing I can surmise it that it moved items on me without my knowledge.
Over all.I've been very pleased, but lately I've noticed.Some auction companies are getting sloppy with product descriptions.And they're not exactly what they've been described.They would say it's one brand and when you get there.It's a different brand thankfully.The auction house made good and refunded but I hate auction credit
I will be recommending this site for sure...It was so easy to bid & it kept up-without lagging...It performed as it was supposed to-with not even one lil hiccup...I can really appreciate that...I love bidding on auctions & HiBid made it such a good experience with the way they're all set up...
West Central Auctions
The interface provides a good description of each item, as well as an experience not unlike an in-person auction. I enjoyed the process, the deals, and the ease of use. However, the app was glitch at times and I had to frequently refresh my browser.
The auction was my neighbor's.
A large estate guaranteed a vast array of items to pursue! There was much in high demand, and yet still many bargains to be had. Conveniently located for local pickup, it was an easy transaction! Recomended!
Selection of goods, location
I had to enter my credit card info 3 times before it was accepted, which was frustrating. During the auction, the platform would not allow me to bid. I ended up using the email links on my phone each time I was outbid in order to enter a bid. It was not a user friendly experience.
My friend is an auctioneer, and I was bidding on her auction.
1st time bidding. It was easy to sign up, easy to bid, and I won the zero turn mowers! The follow up email with details on when and where to pick up was prompt. Very good experience, I'll be back to bid again!
Saw an ad on Facebook, looked intriguing
It was a little hard to maneuver around the web site but I found an auction I liked. Bidding was easy and I won some awesome stuff. Then the communication from the auctioneers was great. Payment was made and pick up was accomplished without a hitch.
I heard about an awesome auction with things I wanted
I bid and was successful on lot 5985 indoor grill cusimax. My last bid was 27.00 way below what the msrp states. They never acknowledged my win even after multiple emails. These people are fraudulent. Encore auctions
I also bid and won on 3 other auctions
Liquidation max. They promptly sent me an email. I picked up my lots today. They were exactly as described. Happy with them.
Heard from a friend who used it and was happy with it
It was fine but i do not like how at the end of the auction when it is counting down there could be somethings at the top with longer times then things 10 items down on the page. I understand that as things get bid on time extends the time but would be nice if it went in time order at that time not lot number. I also ended up with one Item I did not think I was bidding on but jumped when something closed and was the same price as what I was planning on bidding on
I bid on a monitor that showed a retail value of several hundred dollars. After bidding and opening later I believe the description was changed to include the word "broken".
Likewise, I believe the word "used" was added to a description of an item close to closing.
Never heard a response.
Several times while trying to bid it said network error, my sister and dad had the same issues and both go through different internet providers.
I'm also very confused about what I'm supposed to be picking up tomorrow, everything says you MAY have won so I'm not sure how big of a vehicle I need to bring.
My aunts estate was sold here.
Very easy to navigate to a lot different auctions across North America. When asking questions about the various items and auction house rules. The email feature direct to the auctioneer was pretty awesome.
Access to North Amercian auctions.
I was trying to place a bid for $1100 and it popped up a message starting it required auctioneer approval. As the auction was ending soon this was alarming! I ended up losing the auction because I didn't know what to do. If you're going to hold a bid, you should provide details on why, what the hold is, and how long it will take.
Had the item I wanted but if course I didn't get it because of the issue with the auctioneer approval.
I have obtained some amazing items over the years at amazing prices but i have also got some junk too. The auctioneers usually make that right though. Over all I realy enjoy my hibid experience and recommend it to many of my friends
I discovered Hibid when it was recommended to me by a friend and have not found a better option for on line bargain or treasure hunting?
