Shipping Charges
The shippers that they work with are unresponsive and after 2 weeks gave me a quote 5 times higher than any other shipping company I have worked with. They wanted $198 for an item I ship for $20 all the time. That is ridiculous. That is price gouging at its worst. The auction company seems nice, but they need to make arrangements with local shippers that give them deals for sending them a constant steam of business. If these are the only shippers they offer, I will not bid with them again.

Good experience
Sofa and chairs arrived without damage and were just as beautiful as pictured. I was afraid to buy furniture without seeing it in person/wasn't sure if it would end up damaged en route but everything worked out perfectly. They responded to my messages quickly also, which was appreciated. Would buy from them again.

OIL ON CANVAS LANDSCAPE PAINTING, SIGNED H. CARR

Anthony
Santa Fe, NM

I understand AS IS But accurate information is best.
My purchase had some issues that was not disclosed and because of it there was damage in the transportation, If it was better handled it could have been used to reduce the damage, Many auctioneers take photos of all sides so your better informed of your purchase. I can see by extending and enlarging the photo where and only after the fact that there was a possible issue and sure failure if transported without this knowledge. I would have still purchased the item but regret how not knowing how to protect it. Future purchase from any Auctioneer will need to have at least 4 photos minimum of all sides for me to bid and AS IS is a warning!!! I learned my lesson.

Dear Sir, We offer over 1200 lots per auction. The AS IS clause is due to the fact that we are selling vintage to antique items that are not new. Many will display some form of age, use or loss. This is the case with most if not all auction houses. We work hard to disclose any noted condition issues, however condition is a very subjective matter. For 2 weeks prior to each auction, we answer literally hundreds of reports on condition. Simply email us with the lot number and we report all noted issues and supply many extra photos. In the future, I might suggest hiring a blanket wrap shipper who will be careful with your item, regardless of condition. I note you used UShip. I am not familiar with their services, however we expect all of our suggested shippers to pack and transport client items with the utmost care. Thank you for sharing your feedback. We will continue to work hard to disclose and provide reports on condition.
