Bidder Reviews for Alderfer Auction (672)

This was my first time dealing with them. And I must say it’s been a pleasure. Very easy to work with. As for communication’s when ever I emailed a question. I received a answer quickly and more importantly they answered my questions every time. Everything was as described Pickup was quick and easy they had everything ready for we when I pulled up. It’s been a pleasure doing business with Alderfer. I would certainly recommend them & I would buy from them again. Thanks

Thank you! Love them both.

I enjoy purchasing items of interest through Alderfer Auction because their photos and information are always on spot with what you receive and their in-house shipping is packed well and forwarded at a fair price. Staff is helpful, dependable and always pleasant. And I'm left with a confidence when bidding from afar, that lots will be as described, and lots won will arrive the same. Comfortable doing business with this Auctioneer am I.

Fair Price, Excellent packing and fast correspondence what more could you expect! Thank you

Not having the weight of the sculpture either delays a shipping quote, or the shipper provides inaccurate shipping quote, sometimes leading to damaged items. It would be helpful for sellers to include the approximate weight of sculpture, along with the dimensions of the item.

Sold a CONTEMPORARY item as an antique-they NEVER pick up the phone, especially if they believe you have a complaint-do NOT buy here; their item descriptions are fraudulent.

Shipping and pick-up was a little slow, but eventually it was completed.

All around I had a really good experience with Alderfer Auctions. Bidding & paying was easy. Received items in a timely manner. No issues & will do business with again.

My experience with Alderfer Auction was first-rate in every aspect. Highly Recommended.

What a great experience I had with this auction house. Very responsive and even willing to go the extra mile to help.

Service good, Details Need clarified before auction ….

Love the dolls and the auction house

I was nervous to bid and have to set up shipping but I decided to try it and It was much easier that I expected. They answered all of my questions and were very friendly. I highly recommend them!

It is a pleasure to work with you.

Will use again. Shipping was excellent. Love my item

I bought one SMALL doll pram that fit in a priority box. I requested in house shipping as the OUTSIDE shippers are absolutely GOUGING buyers. Fortunately they heard me after several emails, and sent the item in a priority box. I am making a list of auction houses with NO in house shipping that I will no longer deal with.

I have dealt with other auction houses but Alderfer's is the only one that does not use "shipping costs" as profit center. All things being equal (large inventory, good prices, good website, etc.), Alderfer is my go-to auction choice from now on.

These folks were great to deal with. Thought I might be few minutes late to pick up my items they said no problem stayed an extra 10 minutes for me. Items were exactly as described. Will definitely buy from them again.

worst experience

In my first experience with Alderfer Auction, I was unsure who was responsible for the shipping process since I was not in the immediate area for pickup. Since the item was jewelry, there was no problem but is there a limit to what Alderson will have shipped for a buyer?

I am quite happy with the item I won but the shipping was insane. I was charged $47 for some political buttons. Perhaps there was a mistake

Got the stuff, Fedex temporarily lost one of the boxes, but it showed up eventually!

Good and professional service in every way.

Beautiful antique-thanks so much for selling to me!

Smooth experience. Fine people to deal with.

Company did not send invoice until I contacted them for it. Them they emailed me to tell me I still owed them for shipping. Auction was November 27 it took until December 16th to get my coins. Will NEVER BUY FROM THIS AUCTION AGAIN!!!

Fair with auction timing, accurate description, quick invoicing, fast and secure shipping... Thank You
