The terms of the auction listing state that cash or wire transfer is accepted. I have the winning bid on a small tractor, the seller is now telling me that I need to go to the bank and do a wire transfer, because he does not accept cash. In order for me to do a wire transfer. I need to be at the bank before 3 PM. Which means I need to take off work at approximately 1 PM. I cannot take off of work, I am abiding by the auction terms by paying cash, if the terms are different, you should update that in your terms. I never would've bid on this item if I had known that cash was not accepted.
Hadn't used auction time in a long time due to being out of the country for 3 years. I always liked auction time before because it was easier for me to navigate than other sites, and even with updates It was still very comfortable, will be using more in the future.
Chris, we’re delighted to hear that picking up where you left off feels familiar and comfortable—your ease of use truly matters to us.

Thank you, Derek, for sharing your clear and encouraging experience. We're glad playing a role in securing your crusher felt straightforward, and we look forward to supporting you with any future bids.
Auction went great. The pickup of excavator went smooth with no problems. The auctioneer did above and beyond. The pickup driver could have not been more correct on pickup and delivery times. The machine was delivered and very good condition and undamaged. I will be buying from this seller again and hope to find this driver again. Thank you, Troy Kies Auctioneer/realtor,
The whole experience, start to end went well. Questions were answered promptly, and more info given when requested.

Easy auction to participate in but due to the Holidays, the purchase has not been finalized yet.
Thank you for the feedback, Jim!
Once I got logged in which I already had a account and hadn't used for a while, had some difficulty there, but when I called for assistance, everybody was very helpful. The bidding was seamless, and I was very pleased with the results. I would definitely use AuctionTime again.
Larry, thank you so much for sharing your experience. We're glad our team could quickly assist you and that your bidding went smoothly!
When down to final seconds three times the count down would be under a minute and the seconds would bounce around giving others more time without out any bids coming in. I know when a bid is submitted it gives you a minute to respond but because it kept bouncing around it would have timed out. Giving me the bid for a couple thousand lease. Not happy about this
David, thank you for sharing your experience. I understand how the last seconds felt frustrating, the item you were bidding on was in a grouping of similar items by that seller. Bids are accepted, and the clock extended, for both items in the grouping until BOTH items stop receiving bids and clock expires for BOTH items.
Easy to bid and no fees. The paper work taken care of by the seller was a simple process. I had a good experience.
Thank you, Stuart, for sharing your positive experience! It's wonderful to hear the bidding process was smooth.
I was surprised to receive an email that stated that my bid was not finalized and that a rep from Kobza's would contact me. In the past, I had received notification that I had the winning bid and an invoice that same day. I did call John Kobza and he was surprised at it as well. Why was this email sent. The bidding process is fine.
Thank you, Bruce, for bringing this to our attention and for your earlier conversation with John; we’re glad the bidding process is working smoothly for you. We’ll review the email system to ensure notifications properly reflect occasional exceptions in the future.
Auction was strait forward and went smoothly. There was a glitch with receiving the invoice in a timely manner, but after a couple phone calls all was resolved and invoice was sent. I have always had a positive experience with AuctionTime and never hesitate in using them for my equipment needs!
Ron, thank you for highlighting the smooth auction experience and your continued trust in our team. We apologize again for the invoice delay and appreciate your patience during those quick phone calls—your feedback helps us improve for everyone.
