Bidder Reviews for Gold Standard Auctions (639)

I have had several bad experiences with GSA. More cleaned coins that were deemed closely uncirculated or uncirculated or mint state grades. It doesn't matter when you find out the coins you buy from GSA have been cleaned. It appears that GSA is a clearing house for cleaned coins and coins that have been environmentally damaged. GSA is very un-responsive when you have an issue with what they run through their auctions. Further, LiveAuctioneers is of very little help. They don't hold their auction house to account or to any standard. They is no published rating for auction houses on LiveAuctioneers like eBay. It's a sneaky way to keep the buyers unaware of who they are buying from. after spending 10's of thousands of dollars on this platform, It's time to reconsider. I will not buy from Gold Standard Auctions ever again.

I wish an option would be added for 2 day shipping. A label was created very quickly. It took almost a week to pick up. I didn’t receive my item for 2 weeks. When I was concerned about my item potentially being lost I was told “we can’t control it after it leaves us”. Seriously??? lol

They put auction stickers on slabbed coins that when removed destroy the graders foil seal. You would think that a company that deals in rare coins would have a clue as to the proper care and handling of them. No one wants your stickers in their collection. Good auction houses put them on the edge of the slab.

Great response in questions, quick ship, good stuff.

Great coins thanks a lot will bid more in the future.

Have purchased many coins from the auction house and very pleased with the coins and auction house.

Fast turnaround time

Excellent transaction.

Gold Standard in itself is a good auction, although the stickers they put on certified coins are hell to remove, I understand they need to identify coins for auction purposes but there are stickers that are easy to remove, and the Live Auctioneer's platform is going downhill quickly, to many auctions pawing off junk, I will bid with Gold Standard in the future and keep a bottle of Goof off to scrap and remove the glue, tape and lables

Gold Standard auctions in itself is good to go, but the Live Auctioneer's platform is terrible, they take to long to get the auction vendor paid and the processing feeds for my debit card (not credit card) are ridiculous, I will be leaving Live Auctioneer's Platform soon, it was good at one time, to many junk auctions now

Asked about why payment method changed and once again i get no reply from GSA! They are unable to answer my questions but are able send a reminder to pay everyday. And the new clear tape/stickers that is used for the item numbers are **********! I spend 10 minutes cleaning off the sticky ********** left from the stickers.

GSA didnt respond to questions asked after auction ended. It seems that once they get their money, they dont care to answer questions.

Smooth transaction, prompt delivery, will buy again

I've made several purchases and have found that payments are both confusing and difficult. After making payment and having your company accept them I still waited over a month for delivery and only received partial shipment of my purchases.

Description appears to be misleading. Not all the coins years are in high demand as the Description implies. Two coins do not have legible years. One quarter is 1965 (90 % since?). I do not feel that this is trustworthy...

SHIPPED QUICKLY AND RECEIVED ITEM! GREAT EXPERIENCE!

Reliable and professional

PGA grading service is 4-5 grades off. Just got a "MS65" returned as an AU 58 from PCGS. The auction house did their job. No issue with them, as far as I know.

3 of the items I ordered were incorrect. I sent them an email right away and 2 weeks later I still do not have a solution from them.
