Tremendous Team!
I have been privileged to prevail in a number of auctions with Eldred’s and they have all gone very well. The photos and descriptions have been accurate and their handoffs to their shipping partner have always been seamless and successful. It’s always a pleasure to hear a familiar voice when I call to provide my payment information.

Very happy
I was very happy with my experience of buying a painting from Eldred's, everything was seamless and the UPS store that they recommended did a wonderful job of getting it here safely.

Description of item omitted major issue with frame
The people at Eldred's were very nice about giving me extra time to arrange pickup. They had recommended two UPS shippers only for me to find out that they would not ship a piece of this size. I finally found a PakMail shipper who picked up the piece, only to inform me that the frame and (plexi) glass were badly separated from the print itself. The frame was also damaged in noticeable ways. I have acquired many framed pieces through LiveAuctioneers in the past without any similar type of damage. I think that such an obvious problem with the piece should have been noted in the listing.... I would have bid differently for only the print.

Dear Susan: We are sorry that you were disappointed in the condition of the frame. We do include the note pasted below on every one one of our lot listings for our framed items. We are also not familiar with the shipper you used. If there is an issue such as the one you described and the item is picked up by one of the shippers on our list, that shipping agent will alert us to the issue, so that we can get in touch with the customer prior to the item being shipped. I will reach out to you directly soon. Sarah Important note on frames: Frames are not guaranteed to be in the same condition as they are in the item photograph. Due to handling and shipping, many frames, especially antique ones, are prone to losses. If you have questions about the condition of a frame, please contact us prior to the auction.

Eldred's: always professional and responsive
As repeat customers of Eldred's, we must thank them for their professionalism and responsiveness, plus their weekend pickup arrangements are a great customer service plus! We wouldn't mind seeing a few more photographs of items/furniture in the listings, but all-in-all, Eldred's is a terrific and well-run company. Thank you.

Item Details Incorrect
The bureau dimensions listed incorrectly: actual depth is 20.5 inches but Eldred’s has it as 40.5 inches. Also condition details missing: an open gap in the back board that runs the full width of the piece and missing veneer in a few places in the front. This being my first purchase with Eldred’s, will be my last.

Pleasant Auction Firm To Buy From
My first time participating in an Eldred's auction. Accurate description and shipping was handled in-house for a fair price. Responsive to request for a condition report which was received promptly with my questions answered.

The items need to have better descriptions.
This would have been a bette r experience all the way around if they had described the items as damaged or missing all their fingers on their left hands on the door of Hope Dolls. I am not happy with them but the other lot was great. I will do business with this auction house again. I guess always ask what the condition of the items are because whoever looks at them obviously does not know what they are doing to over look no fingers on both dolls except for one finger on each left hand!

Items as described in photos
Overall pleased with my auction wins. After I won a lot containing antique fire grenades dated to the 1880’s I was told that they could not be shipped because they could contain a dangerous chemical. I attempted to explain that this era of the earliest fire grenades are safe because they contain a salt water brine solution. But whomever they consulted with said that they could have dangerous chemicals. This consultant is wrong. Even eBay allows them and the USPS to be transported through their systems. But I just cancelled the lot … disappointing but not the end of the world. The remaining lots arrived safely and as described. I wish Eldreds offered in house shipping. Some of these shipping companies take advantage and charge a lot to ship auction items.

Great Customer Service
The people at Eldred's were very helpful and courteous in all aspects of the transaction. In the current world of people not taking time, rushed or not polite, it was very refreshing to work with Eldred's. Will happily purchase from them again.

Great experience.
This was a great and painless experience. I found the staff at Eldred's to be very helpful, very nice, and very responsive... much more so than many other auction houses!! I've been buying and consigning with auctions for about 30 years. This was definitely one of the better experiences, and I would not hesitate to deal with them again.
