Bidder Reviews for Lume Arts Inc (83)

3. The carving is controlled and not overly intricate, with a certain restraint that feels traditional. The auction house presented it in a straightforward manner.

2. The gilt surface has worn down unevenly in high points, revealing the copper beneath in a gradual way. This kind of wear is difficult to replicate convincingly. The auction house described it accurately.

The carving is not forced. The auction house was responsive.

6. The gilt layer remains in recessed areas, while exposed sections show natural oxidation. This is consistent with age. The auction house handled it carefully

Highly recommended auctioneer, great item, quick shipping. Will purchase from again!

I couldn't be happier with Himalayan. Very accurate description and effortless buying experience.

Remarkable seller, exceptional service, highest possible recommendation.

I have to say that every lot I have bid on and won has been nothing short of great. The shipping is so amazing as it’s the most responsive we had of all the auctions we have won bids on. The packaging is good and the shipping is awesome.

No problems here. Item was well packed and in-house shipping made it a no hassle transaction. Shipping was fast and I would recommend buying from them!

Very good service. I buy regularly at auction-this one is first rate.

I am an idiot for buying bad fakes from this auction. Please don't make the same mistake. Live Auctioneers should not allow this illicit business to operate on their sight.

Very happy for high quality items and quick response, highly recommended,

Expensive international delivery and packaging as compared with others.

Two Thumps up.. Very happy

not a good seller as totally no respose to the buyer.

Very good company to deal with.

Unfortunately, my experience with this seller was unsatisfactory. The coin I received was later determined to be counterfeit, which required that it be returned immediately. The seller initially stated that the issue resulted from an error involving a third-party supplier and confirmed that they had ceased doing business with that source. Based on these representations, I acted in good faith and previously requested the removal of my review to avoid causing unwarranted harm if the issue were truly isolated. However, subsequent developments demonstrated that the seller continued to list and sell the same category of counterfeit coins in greater volume. This conduct cannot reasonably be characterized as an isolated mistake, but rather indicates a recurring pattern of misleading practices. In addition, the unusually large volume of Chinese items attributed to historically rare periods raises serious concerns regarding provenance and authenticity, particularly given that such levels of availability are inconsistent with established norms in the specialized market. This factor, when considered alongside the foregoing issues, underscores the presence of systemic risk that prospective buyers should carefully consider. Despite the fact that the item was returned to the seller a considerable time ago, as confirmed by USPS tracking, the refund has not been issued to date. This represents a clear failure to meet even the minimum standards of professional commercial conduct. Based on the above, I cannot recommend doing business with this seller and believe that exercising the highest level of caution is both justified and necessary.

Everything from the Bid to the Shipping went very smooth. The Shipping was what I consider a reasonable price with No hassels.

I'm new to timed auctions and Lume Atrs Inc is the best on Liveauctioneers!! They are kind and ship fast!! Love these guys!!!!

They advertise the lot as a gold coin but when the coin arrives after 3 weeks of them receiving payment, it turns out the coin is silver gold plated not gold! Nowhere in their description did they say silver. When contacted they stay silent and not take action to reimburse me! Stay away from this auction house!
