Bidder Reviews for Ishtar Auctions LTD. (159)

Great place to buy-smooth transaction-fast shipping. Courteous staff AAA + + +

I would go out of my way to buy from this house again. My item was absolutely INCREDIBLE. Sheera was so helpful in the payment and invoicing process. The in house shipping is spectacular. I had purchased a very LARGE and VERY delicate porcelain figure. Very few people could pack this without it breaking and having to travel halfway around the world. It arrived in absolutely PERFECT condition-and being a dealer for over 40 years I am not often impressed. Absolutely the BEST and they have my highest recommendation!

The success of this auction house is a product of many factors. At the risk of ignoring some, here is my pick of the 3 keys. No. 1 Ishtar operates under daily detailed supervision of its young founders as a knowledgeable and discerning team of enthusiastic curators in love with their core niches. No 2. Ishtar unshakeable Integrity and reliability attracts key consignors. (They have many choices, but Ishtar's wholesomeness is the real magnet. No. 3) The combination of (1) and (2) is attractive to diverse bidder collectives, from dedicated collectors to bargain hunters, yet it is so seldom a war zone that one can expect to pay fair and realistic prices for the majority of its offerings, which brings me back to its almost unparalleled range and diversity of consigned items. I run an ambitious Israel-themed private Museum in the US and take part in many auctions. My experiences with Ishtar is like a good fishing trip from which you never come empty or upset. Boris.

Very smooth transaction and happy with my purchase.

Great experience with Ishtar. Photos/descriptions of items were accurate. Although overseas, payment process was simple and straightforward. Shipping was prompt. Hope to do business with this house in the future.

Thank you. Look forward to your upcoming auctions

Fantastic service from the team here and can not fault at all. Accurate description and fast shipping. Thank you

A excellent description of the items with plenty of pictures. Good communication and fast responses.

Very pleased wuth the service and lovely item. Thank you.

Very good experience. I will by again from this Auction. Very kind staff and perfect packaging of the ceramics.

Add perhaps a little more information in the description as well as work a bit more on identifying the object. Twas Archangel Michael rather than St. George.

They Are very good

Very pleased!!

Everything worked very well. The postage was very cheap. Compared to other auction houses, which often demand too much postage, the shipping was very good! and fast!

great trade! thoroughly recommend

Very satisfied

very nice transaction.

Photo or condition report did not show a fault. Once received and complained, they offered me a discount on their next Auction.

Perhaps it was me, but the absentee bid that I left for an item didn't kick in. Fortunately, I was able to be on-line and saw that, so I bid live and won the item, but otherwise, I would have lost something that meant a great deal to me; a piece sculpted by my grandfather.

Great experience
