Bidder Reviews for Conestoga Auction Company Division of Hess Auction Group (608)

I have made many purchases from Conestoga Auctions over the years and have always been more than pleased with my purchases and with the auction firm. I chose to use the Live Auctioneers shipping option in this case which was a mistake because they were overpriced and slow as molasses in shipping the item to me.

as described

Reliable, will deal with again.

when buying on line there i always a risk that the item you purhae does not look like the photo. This item is exactly as photographed, and described. Thank you.

Staff very knowledgeable and personable. Items are top-notched in country store advertising. Looking forward to next sale!!

I’ve been having allot of bad experiences with auction houses, so it’s nice when you get an item that is in great shape without doctored up pics, plus an auction house that ships your item quickly at a reasonable price! Thank you!

great people

I have dealt with this auction company for many years and have always been satisfied with their service.

Had a very pleasant experience with Conestoga Auctions recently. Very happy with everything. A + + + +

great auction company

always perfect all the way

I love the item we bought, and I love it even more that the auction house allowed a friend of ours to pick up the item for us and thus save us hundreds in shipping costs. Thanks, Mr. Hess. My husband I and will be shopping from you again.

Great service-Very pleasant staff-Like their variety of quality antique & unusual items-Easy pickup

great company would buy from them again

very professional and an easy transaction

Hess Auction Group uses multiple bidding platforms for their auctions. I was declared the winning bidder on item # 318 in their 22 August auction. Despite that, they continued to accept bids on another platform and, I assume, in house as well. After the auction, I was invoiced for that item via Live Auctioneers and it was paid for. On Monday 25 August, I arrived at their gallery to pick up the item and was informed that it had been sold to another bidder despite having a bill of sale in my hand. Hess refused to budge on this leaving a customer who had traveled over 500 miles to retrieve the item empty handed. If you do business with this house, buyer beware is all I have to say.

It's always a pleasure doing business with Conestoga Auction!!!

I purchased a few items from the Hess Auction Group and they have been my favorite items purchased at auction. Their descriptions are accurate and they have worked with me on the pick up/shipping process, something other auction houses have not. I love this mirror and it is exactly as described.

It's been more than a month since I paid in full for these items and paid for shipping and I have never received any of my items.

I am disappointed that Live Auctioneers charged my credit card immediately instead of having the option to pay Conestoga when picking up items

Great quality!

I enjoyed dealing with Conestoga. Items are of high quality. Payment and pickup was easy. The staff and owner were friendly and helpful.

For out of state shipment they use a UPS Store in Lancaster, PA run by a veteran. Thanks for supporting them. Also they did a first rate job packing carefully to insure my items would arrive safely

accurate item description and in good condition
