Bidder Reviews for Apple Tree Auction Center (925)

The descriptions of the items are very limited and you may not get what you expect, also the shipping costs are higher than some other auction houses since they do not do in house packing and shipping.

Congratulations to the person who out bided me for the auction of Con Bakers Ephemera personal and business letters 5 **********, 5644, 5645 and 5656, in October 2023 My great grandmother was the daughter of WIlliam Batty Harmston, if there is anything you would like to sell from this auction or would like to share as I did also win a few items on this auction. The letters I have found, has given me more information on my family. Please can you contact Apple Tree, as they have my permission to pass on my details to the successful bidders I lost against. I so hope that you will make contact with me. Thanks

I was sold a product that collectors refer to as "garbage." The coins I received had all valuable ones removed, and it was not an accident. Anyone who deals in coins could spot it in less than a minute, so it was not disclosed honestly. The cherry on the cake was the roll marked "War Nickel" (supposed to be 35 % silver) full of 2010P. The valuation should have reflected this, but the seller was not forthcoming. In our case, the maximum value of the coin couldn't be more than $50. The seller's website had a blurry picture, which should have been a red flag. Unfortunately, their terms and conditions state that they don't know what they sell or the value of their products. That's an easy and pathetic way out for them. So, I would advise buyers to beware and stay away from them.

The auction house was very responsive, but the payment process was not streamline and payment was needed separately for auction and shipping. When all was said and done, it took more than three weeks from the end of the auction to get the firearm in hand. That said, I am still satisfied.

Service was excellent! Everything was packed well and shipped in a timely manner as usual!

I didn't have any problems and everything went well.

Though LiveAuctioneers showed I was the winner, my absentee bid was higher than the closing price, I was online when the item was live ready to bid again, if necessary, and I received an invoice from LiveAuctioneers, when I called to pay, the auction house said I didn't win. They said the winner was on another auction site and their internet clerk made a mistake in showing me the winner. So I didn't get the item I wanted. I assume the consignor didn't get the highest bid amount, and I did not bid in other auctions because I focused on this item and for some period of time thought I had won. So, no, it was not a very satisfactory experience. On the other hand, the auctioneers were polite, and they didn't steal any money from me. So, in that respect, I assume an honest mistake was made and there was no ill intent.

I had a great time participating in this auction! It was exciting and timely. The only small issue I hope that they can improve on would be the amount of time it takes for shipping. Don't get me wrong, whenever I called about this issue, they were very nice and responsive to my inquiries and assured me that they were doing their very best, which I believed. They had a lot of items to auction and I'm sure they had a lot of shipments to send out. I will participate in future auctions for Apple Tree, it's a great auction center!

Professional handling

Love it

Nice to get everything OK. Thanks!

I received the item mere days after the auction ended. A wonderful auction experience! Thanks!

Apple Tree provided great customer service and excellent experience. They were very responsive to questions and were quick to respond. Auction was was fun and moved quickly.

Wonderful experience

I do wish that other auction houses will figure out how Apple Tree continues to offer such great service. I am always kept in the loop from initial purchase to all shipping. It is very comforting.

I frequent Apple Tree’s auctions as they have the best items and the best service. Everyone you interact with is so kind and the payment and pickup process is so smooth.

Always a pleasure to deal with, very friendly and helpful,

Professional, accurate descriptions, and always great auctions!

Apple Tree has one of the widest selections of auctions. It is not uncommon to find an item of interest in every auction. They are always quick and responsive. Shipping is always reasonable.

No dimensions on listing, so I wrote and asked for ONE measurement. No reply. All of the people in the departments were lovely and helpful. However, I met two older people (management or owners?) that were incredibly rude. This will affect my willingness to buy here again.

Item as described and arrived quickly. I look forward to future auctions.

Fast and efficient seller. Alway a pleasure!

This auction was so much fun for me and my wife. Apple Tree provided an amazing auction with a great selection. They are very nice and super easy to deal with. My wife and daughter drove 7 hrs to pickup our items and they made arrangements to be able to get the items on a Saturday. Thanks to Sam!!

Went very smoothly.

I saved Apple Tree as a favorite and auction house I follow, you should too.

They are friendly and helpful if you have any problems

Great products, convenient shipping, and very reasonable shipping cost. Staffs are very kind, and responsive.
