Bidder Reviews for Cordier Auctions (1,466)

Great items and well described. Third party shipping is a bit of a negative.

This auction house offers extremely limited pickup appointments. Two of three days offered were completely booked and the third day fell on Saturday of July 4 weekend. I was then billed for exboritant storage fees for 2 small items with an added premium charge on top of the daily storage fee. I booked the next open day, the following Saturday as it was the only option. The office staff was rude and unhelpful. This system must offer an additional revenue stream. Be aware that if you may not get an appointment due to limited offerings and then accrue additional fees very quickly. This is the only negative experience I’ve had with auction purchasing.

Although I called and spoke to someone about making an appointment to see items. No one returns my calls. I am a highly motivated buyer who has lost interest because of Cordier’s lack of response and my disappointment in items bought sight unseen. Cordier was a good place to find nice items but now it is a bother.

So rude, unflexible, horrible service you can't imagine! Pick up is distressing; receptionist was abusive and proud of it. Working in this industry myself, I know you have to be a little flexible for your clients, lest you loose them. If I could give zero stars I would. Had they been nicer to us on the phone, we'd swallow their bitter pill. If you buy from them I suggest you get your thurs/Fri appointment scheduled quickly and keep to it; otherwise you only have a Sat pick up. It's all by appointmnt. My husband and sons happen to be in Harrisburg TODAY for business on a Fri, but they didnt have any fri pickups available when I scheduled using their third-party scheduling system (I was told they only have Thurs/Fri available the week right after the auction-it's a staffing issue?) and so we had to sched pickup on Sat; we thought/hoped/called & requested they would release the lot to us, but no way! So they have to stay overnight and get a hotel to pick this item up. I was told by receptionist "you were told numerous times about your appointment" (I talked to her once, said this to her and she quickly corrected me that "this make twice") How childish! This is the first negative review I've written about an auction house and hopefully the last; I also hope this is helpful before you register and buy anything there. Good luck.

Everything was as listed. Thanks.

After winning my lot I called with questions about paying due to error message being given trying to pay my invoice. Nobody ever answers the phone, return voicemails or respond to emails. Eventually I was able to pay my invoice and the shipping company they use picked up my winning lot on my behalf since I could never reach anyone. I don't see myself bidding on anything from Cordier Auctions ever again.

Again, another great buying experience. My items are far above average and I am thrilled. Eileen went above and beyond what she had to do to accommodate me. 5 thumbs up to her. See you at the next pick up.

Accurate Descriptions!

Reliable. Prompt shipping.

A mid-scale auction house with occasional bursts of elegance. Much local, provincial, and paintings ordinaire, but you have to keep watching cause there are surprising pieces, or even collections, that shouldn't be missed.

As always I arrived to pick up my items and everything was just as I expected. Clean, organized, and well run. My items were waiting for me just inside the door. I depend on quality of my items and that is what I get. I resell most of what I buy and I depend on the items being in good condition. If there is damage or wear to an item I will see it pointed out in the description.

Highly recommend

Quick shipping with their preferred shipper

My items were in the condition listed. The pickup went smoothly even though I was a bit early.

Today was probably the 15th time I have dealt with Cordier auctions. Everything went as smooth as a well oiled machine. High quality merchandise, reasonable prices and most importantly the ability to get my items. Even the young man at pick up went above and beyond what he had to do. VERY pleased.

In my bidding I failed to notice that they didn't offer in-house shipping. The process of purchasing was seemless though

I'm very grateful to Cordier Auction and Appraisals for providing such a wide variety desirable and collectable Items and the customer friendly first class service you provide. Presently I am trying to replace all the comic books my mother threw away and Cordier and LiveAuctioneers has been a great help. Thank You! Sincerely, Richard

buyers beware, anyone decided to bid in this auction house has to becareful. Their service very careless and I tried to ask them to call me many times to arrange shipping and they did not. They took my money and now keep the inventory without shipping it to me. Buyers beware!

William, Memphis bought Case of wine in Nov. auction paid and asked for shippers and they gave me Fed Ex and UPS after contacting neither ship wine, after contacting auction house several times all they had to say was you will be charged $5.00 a day after 7 days, not offering any help. With Covid its hard to find carriers to pick up during this challenging times, what we went thru with Cordier Auctions it was clear this is a SCAM to beat people out of their items, talked to David Cordier he informed me to call him personally to pick up wine on Sat. had my 2nd carrier to go by to pick up wine and was informed they did'nt have the wine so I called to ask for my Money back and they said no, it a scam.

The antique bed that I bought was even better than the very helpful photos showed. Pick-up was easy and efficient. Very happy with my purchase, thanks!

Good customer service, work with when I could not make my appointment due to bad weather

I have purchased many items from this auction house.-Always efficient.

This is an irresponsible auction house. Deliberately withholding the condition report. make you suffer losses.

Bidding, buying, and shipping process ran smoothly, well pkgd. + delivered expediently. AAA!!! I’d recommend them anytime to anyone. GREAT Service.
