Bidder Reviews for California Historical Design (397)

California Historical Design is a class act.

This is my second purchase from this auctions house. Great experience, awesome pieces of glass very well wrapped. Respond very fast. Repeat any time.

Their in-house shipping was excellent.

Thanks Gus, I am enjoying my Xmas presents, to myself. You always have high quality Van Briggle pottery. It is so nice to have you pack and ship in house, easy to get ripped off by the east coast shippers!

After receiving my purchase of 2 arts & crafts wooden pipe racks I realized they were Dutch spoon holders. Still nice but overpayed for something I assumed was used for holding pipes. The other 2 pottery pieces were very nice. Shipping is always top notch.

Great five star service A + + + + + + + + + +

top notch auction house!!

Beautiful stuff but waaay too many lots! Missed bidding on some desired items because I couldn ‚ Ä ô t stay glued to my computer/smartphone for 12 hours with only 2-3 5 minute breaks!! Should have been 2 separate dates.

I have always had very good experiences with this Auction house; easy to work with and very responsive. I would like to see more pictures for an item. Especially if it's marked.

This is the best auction house for customer service. They pack and ship for buyers, and shipment is free if you buy an aggregate of $5, 000. Includes furniture! They shipped my last order before even billing for freight. What every auction ought to be like.

First Class Auction House, a great resource for the Collector.

Good experience!

Love doing business with Gus.

I will not deal with this vendor. I doubt that I will bid in a LiveAuction either.

Gus, et al, were totally awesome. We were hesitant buying the items unseen, but we are thrilled with every item we bought. We will definitely be purchasing from them again.

Not only does Gus Bostrom bring the real-deal goods to market, but he really cares about the heritage of the pieces he sells, he is extremely knowledgeable in his specialty fields, and he takes excellent care of his customers. He and his staff consistently go the extra mile to ensure total customer satisfaction. California Historical Design belongs at the top of any collector's go-to list of vendors.

The item was delivered to my home at no additional charge.

This was a terrific place to work with.

Very easy to follow the sales and easy to use the service. Verry happy with all features

Very professional and prompt. Their in house shipping saves time and expense, and they do a great job with this too! We have purchased several times from them over the years, including a painting and pottery, and everything has arrived quickly and in great shape. We always look forward to their auctions!

Excellent service and experience.

As promised. Speedy delivery.. well packaged..
