Thanks A... LiveAuctioneers now provides shipping quotes from their own negotiated shippers in your invoice and every quote we compared to our regular shippers was higher... You may decline their quote and choose self-arranged shipping to receive quotes from our regular less expensive shippers... Best... VS

Great service
Great service, and everything went well with them. Unfortunately the recommended shipper did not pack my item right, and it arrived completely damaged.

Richard Stedman Estate Services LLCJun 08, 2025
Thanks for your purchase and for letting us know... The shipper informed us they are administrating a claim and attributed the breakage to brittle clay that couldn't handle normal transport vibration however other vessels from the same collection from multiple shippers did arrive intact so we believe your package was subject to extra stress but we have not yet seen packing images so we are looking into it.

Elizabeth... Sorry you are having trouble getting in touch with one of our reffered shippers. I just received after a month after the auction your message and responded to your messsge the same day for which you thanked me and reached out to the shipper in question also the same day only to find you've left a one star review after we tried to assist you. Since your purchase was under $40 we understand shipping costs become an important component cost of the transaction which is the very reason we added the traditional UPS Store run by Malcom you are trying to reach as the other referral UPS store that specializes in antiques for 6 area auction houses uses a heavier grade of materials and charges a bit more. I then checked the time and you left the negative review 4 minutes before you emailed us. It just seems very disheartening to be penalized by trying to save our customers money. All of our referrals are provided as a convenience and they are separate unrelated companies. We love our customers and are most attentive to their needs. Please in the future consider contacting me first, let me assist you-and then leave the feed back if you desire... Cordially, Van Stedman

Exceptional Auctioneer Services
Outstanding buyer experience that included prompt follow up, excellent merchandise, and accurate descriptions. Clearly, Richard Stedman Estate Services is knowledgeable — and this is also reflected in their business acumen that includes exceptional support and customer satisfaction. I couldn’t be more please with my item, and how the entire transaction was expertly managed that also involved Stedman’s recommending Charlie at UPS who is one of the finest shippers ever! My fragile glass lamp shade was securely handled, and well packed due to Richard Stedman’s partnership with UPS, which further resulted in an overall great experience due to this teaming arrangement. I highly recommend Richard Stedman Auction Services, they will not disappoint!

Unbelievable people!
I bought this as a gift for my artist girlfiend, so I'm new at this. I got a great deal on an incredible piece of artwork. When it came to shipping, I thought it was a little high. They worked with me to get to an amount that was in line with the purchase. Couldn't ask for better people. Thanks, I mean it. Seriously, the packaging was bulletproof.

GREAT AUCTION EXPERIENCE.
This was my first time bidding with Richard Stedman Services and I must say it was a great experience. I had a question about the condition of a painting and received a quick, thorough and professional response. I arranged to pick up in person and was very pleased with the condition of the painting which was exactly as described. I will certainly be watching there future auctions.

Mr. Stedman was an interesting and prolific collector!
I went to pick up my painting at Mr. Stedman’s space. What an interesting afternoon. Mr. Stedman had many other very interesting things to consider in his various collections..
