Bidder Reviews for Amaradio Auctions (134)

Amaradio House is one the best auction houses. I've bought several items from Amaradio and I never had an issue. Thank you for making LiveAuctionners an enjoyable experience!

Sad this was their last sale. Great merchandise.

Very very happy with all my items. All great quality at a restaurant price. Help was very friendly too. Ty so much. I’ll be back.

Love it here

Thank you for all your help. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase.

I've won two pieces from Amaradio Auctions and I had a similar experience with both of them-in both cases I arranged shipping and had the shipper contact the Auction House to schedule a pick up. In both cases, someone from Amaridio emailed me threatening to start charging storage fees because they hadn't heard from me regarding shipping, when they absolutely had. I don't like receiving threats, especially when I've acted appropriately and followed the rules that Amaridio set forth. These interactions (which I've never experienced with any other Auction House) are unpleasant and will stop me from bidding in an Amaridio Auction again. Furthermore, when both of the pieces arrived, I felt that they'd been overpriced and, had I had a better description and understanding from the Auction House, I wouldn't have bid on them. In both cases I won because I bid at the opening price and no one bid higher than the opening price-which tells me that the opening price was set too high. In my opinion, when I saw the pieces in person, I overpaid for both pieces.

The items that I bought at this auction arrived just today (February 16, 2023), and I was pleased to see them at last. This is my second time participating in one of the auctions at Amaradio. I got very helpful answers to my questions, allowing me to make well-informed decisions about what to bid on. I enjoy knowing as much as possible about the manufacturer of the furniture that I've bought, which is possible when there's a tag on the bottom of the chair or a stamp on the inside of a drawer. Amaradio Auctions includes pictures of these tags in their listings, which has allowed me to do some research and learn about the history of the company. Some of the items being offered are so unique, pieces that you would never see anywhere else. Once again, this was a very positive buying experience for me!

Easy pickup with helpful staff; very positive experience.

They were very helpful with loading and just friendly!

Great auction house. These guys make the entire transaction simple and pleasant

One of the best run auctions I have the pleasure of doing business with. Fair estimates and quality goods.

It’s hard to say how satisfied I am as I have never not been able to get any form of communication back from the shipper once I paid him. The auction house were extremely helpful when I contacted them about the shipper. I have never received my items and the shipper did not communicate with me from when I paid him. Over $400 payment and he now has my products. I am happy with the auction house however I now look for in house shipping after this experience.

Small family run business with great merch.

The item that I purchased was misrepresented in the photos. I’ve purchased hundreds of auction items online. My experience with Amaradio Auctions was the first time that I’ve ever written a negative review. The photos were misleading. The item was actually broken and falling apart. This auction house charged a 28 % fee. Why would an auction house sell something in this bad of a condition and not mention this? Misleading. When I contacted them they responded that bidders can ask any questions and everything is sold as is. Having a policy that only has the aim to protect themselves is not reasonable. For the 28 % additional charge to the buyer there should be some work done to educate the bidder. It’s clear that Amaradio Auction only has one business aim.

Very easy to work with and responsive to the customer. The only item I would say needs improvement is the lack of detailed photos. Even using an enlarged view you are unable to note blemishes and breaks. I am happy with my purchase. It had more broken areas then I thought but in truth I would have purchasing it anyway. I certainly would recommend them and use them again.

This was my first time dealing with Amaradio Auctions. I wrote to them before this auction to inquire about a particular item, and they answered my questions thoroughly. I also called after the auction to provide them with the details of the gentleman who would be picking up my purchases. Jason was very helpful on the phone and gave me some background information about the origin of the mirror that I bought. When the items arrived, I was delighted with everything! The furniture looked better in person than in the pictures online. I would recommend to everyone reading this review to be proactive and ask all of your questions well in advance of the auction date. When it comes to the condition of any item, ask specific questions either in writing or by phone until you are satisfied. Amaradio Auctions is a business that cares about its customers. If you become a repeat customer, they will get to know you, which makes things even easier provided that you communicate with them. The selection of furniture is great, and there's always something unusual. I look forward to doing business with them again soon!

Good auction to work with.

Very pleased with this transaction

After reading the terms, needing to retrive my items promptly gave me concern. But their affiliate shipper was right on the ball and the transaction, including shipping was flawless. A pleasure.

Always a great experience with Amaradio Auctions. They go above and beyond every single time.

(1) The lot purchased: The listing accurately described the item (2 chairs) and their condition. By reading a bunch of their listings, it seemed that items with issues had a description of the issue (s) and the items in good or better condition were simply described as "good" or without any descriptive. I liked that and thought it very helpful. The chairs are, in fact, in very good condition. (2) Support: It was also my first time bidding in which I had to arrange for a large shipment from my end. I had previously bid only locally. I had issues from my end and my shipper's end. Amaradio was supportive and responsive-always almost instantly responding and always helpful, very pleasant, and very reassuring. It was a great experience. I recommend unconditionally.

Items were as described and ready for pick up when I arrived. No problems at all.

Just can not say enough good things about this well run super friendly staffing at this highly rated auction service. Always happy with my purchases and looking forward to their monthly auctions.

Thanks

Best place to buy!

Great auction house to find high quality furniture. Staff are super friendly and helpful.
