Bidder Reviews for Bramlett & Co. (121)

The silver borzoi head cane was authentic and even better than what the photos were able to show. Very pleased with my purchase. Bidders beware regarding the use of LiveAuctioneer's shipping "assistance": it might seem like the easiest way to get your item shipped to you, but this is the second time in a row that the shippers have failed to label my packages properly, resulting in unnecessary delays clearing customs. Little to no assistance in rectifying their error, leaving me to ultimately have to provide a commercial invoice on their behalf in order to get my package through customs. FedEx was incredibly helpful and supportive but if LiveAuctioneers is selling a service to pack and ship to Canada, they should provide the service and not leave the customer to deal with the fallout when they fail to package the item appropriately. NOT the fault of the auction house, but please choose a private shipping option in order to avoid undue hardship and frustration.

excellent service

they provided shipping for my (easily packed) item-at a far more reasonable rate than L. A. quoted-(a fee that would have prevented me from even contemplating a bid). I would certainly bid again on a lot from this company.

Beautiful item as described. Fast, reasonable shipping. (don't use Live Auctioneers shipping. Overpriced and slow) I will buy from this seller again.

Perfect package and received on time thanks

I love this seller! Great items, great pricing and super helpful people!! Thanks Dwayne!

First rate

thumbs up

This site has great items at reasonable prices. Always a pleasure to do business with them as they are very responsive and helpful.

On line payment fee, 25 % buyer premium, 10 % tax. All add up.

A lovely Herend figure... many thanks!

Beautiful item as described, safe packing, reasonable shipping charges, can't ask for anything more.

Amazing shipping and packing ever received

I didn't hear a peep from them. But this auction was fantastic. I was happy to win my item with the starting bid. I thought it was easy on my wallet. I paid for my item and shipping in one fell swoop. Easy. And my clock arrived at my front door packed like Fort Knox, great job for a relatively fragile item. Thanks for everything!

The item arrived as described and without damage! It was a delicate item to ship and they did that in-house which was half the price of Live Auctioneers shipping. They were very nice on the phone. I will definitely buy from them again if they offer in-house shipping!

On August 23, 2025, I purchased Lot # 6, “Oil on Canvas, A Summer Day, attr. to Henri Le Sidaner” from Bramlett & Co. The lot was catalogued as “Attributed to Henri Le Sidaner”, but in reality it is a reproduction — specifically an oleograph. Any knowledgeable auctioneer understands that “attributed to” means the work was likely created by the named artist. Using that term for a reproduction is misleading. When I raised this issue immediately after the auction, Bramlett & Co. admitted in writing that it was a reproduction but refused to cancel my bid. Their correspondence was dismissive, unprofessional, and at times outright disrespectful. I was charged $117.24 for the lot and an additional $106.77 for pickup and shipping to avoid their “STRICTLY ENFORCED” storage fees. While the owner eventually offered to refund the hammer price, they refused to reimburse any shipping costs. Under those terms, returning the painting would only create a larger financial loss than keeping it, which makes no sense for the buyer. In my experience, reputable auction houses handle cataloging errors promptly and with professionalism. Bramlett & Co. did not. Cataloging errors can happen — but they should be rectified fairly. Attempting to shift blame onto the customer while dismissing a valid concern is unacceptable. Based on this experience, I would not recommend bidding with them.

Have bid in person and online. Excellent auctioneers.

Always have a good experience with Big Shanty Auctions. The items are great quality and the staff is so helpful at pick up time. I appreciate their professionalism.

Thanks so much for the five-star transaction!!

Accurate description. Easy folks to deal with.

The item is as described, and the transaction was fast and easy. Very satisfied.

Great experience! Good communication and Easy pick-up! Thank you!

This auction has gone out of their way to help us when any situation has come up... very honest and respectful business... highly recommended

There are quality items available here.

Easy to work with, I surely will buy from them again.

I would purchase additional items from Bramlett. They provide a valuable service.

From bidding to receiving my item the process was smooth and hassle free. This is the way an auction process should be. I can’t believe how well my art glass vase was packed and the price of shipping was quite reasonable. Love it!
