“Shipping Clarification”

Kevin M.
9/25/24

After likely deleting my notice regarding items I won, I became worried that something had gone wrong. Upon calling and speaking with a very nice agent, I was quickly assured that my auction win had indeed been shipped slightly late. Sure enough it showed up in my mail the next day!

Top Critical Review

“Your website needs some work!”

Ron R.
10/10/24

In current bids it says the name of the auction NOT the Auction House. No location to down load a resale tax form ahead of time. A bidder can't change their credit card it's just one choice. The return policy needs addressed because a number of these auction houses don't verify what they are selling. AKA selling gold filled as gold! Other options of payment would be good Zell, PayPal etc.

The 15% buyers fee seems high. 10% would be a better amount.

Reason I chose this business:

That is what is being used in our geographical area.

Ben C. – HiBid Rep

Thomas, thank you for the 5-star review! When you have more than one auction closing at the same time, the best approach is to have them open in separate browser windows. This way, you can easily keep an eye on both without any overlap. If you have any more questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out. We're here to ensure your auction experiences are smooth and enjoyable!
