Confusing or I don't understand the live auction bidding or maybe just haven't figured it out yet
Everything went really smoothly, bidding was simply and easy
Jeff, thank you so much for your kind words! It’s great to hear that the bidding process felt simple and smooth for you—our goal is always to make things effortless, and we’ll keep improving to ensure your experience stays seamless.
It went better than I had expected. So easy to bid and was always aware of where I stoop with my bidding.
This was not my first auction, It's easy, went smoothly, very satisfied with everything except the buyer's premium.
Auction went smooth, I don't like the buyer's premium.
I started bidding on an auction about 7 to 9 days before closing. The auction experience went mostly smoothly and until the end where I was the highest bidder. Unfortunately, once I contacted the seller, they indicated to me that the product wasn't actually available. It should have been removed. This created a very poor experience, making the auction site completely unreliable.
Thank you for sharing your experience, Jeff; I completely understand how frustrating that must have been and sincerely apologize for the oversight. We're actively working to ensure accurate listings so future bids truly lead to reliable transactions, and we hope to provide a far better experience with your next auction participation.
Went just fine, on one of the pages I had open and watching it would not show were the equipment was located unless I opened the tab and then opened the view details, was kind of unhandy
Thanks for sharing your feedback, Mark! We’re glad the experience went well overall, and we appreciate your honest note about the site navigation—it’s really helpful as we look for ways to make things smoother for everyone.
Easy to use website, an AuctionTime representative called me during the last day of the auction to see if I had any questions or needed help, overall great experience. Thanks
Thank you for the feedback, Dan!
The new platform is not easy to use or user friendly. Big iron's platform is preferred over auction time especially with the day's auctions. The old platform was much more user friendly.
Thank you for sharing your experience, Perry. We're sorry to hear that the new platform has been challenging to use and appreciate your honest feedback. We are continually working to improve in order to provide a more intuitive experience and hope future updates meet your expectations.
Agent Luke answered all questions and helped us with payment
Thank you, Lynn, for taking the time to share your experience. We're thrilled to hear that Luke was able to assist you so thoroughly and make the payment process smooth.
Everything worked very well from signing up, bidding, to after winning the bid.
Thank you, Jodie, for sharing your smooth experience from start to finish. We’re delighted everything went well and welcome any feedback that can help us keep improving. Looking forward to supporting you in future auctions!
I called after the sale and they told me they would send wire instructions along with the invoice. NOTHING, after 2 phone calls and a call through Nick at Housby Transoirt. Second day and waiting.
Just checked my Junk mail also NOTHING.
Very easy. Self explanatory. Quick response with a question and instructions. We are excited to get our ambulance here to us and in service.
Thank you for sharing your experience, City of Etna. We’re glad the process felt straightforward and that our support was timely. Wishing you all the best as you get the ambulance into service.
It was my first auction experience and I enjoyed it.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience, John. It’s wonderful to hear that your first auction left such a positive impression!
Simple and easy to use, I like the fact that we deal directly with the seller as soon as the deal's over.
Thank you for the feedback, Jay!
It was good, Really dont like extending the time due to more bids coming in the last moments.
Thanks for the feedback, Mark.
Bought kitchen cabinets through Kobza auction in David city Ne. Great people to work with! Very helpful from time to look at items, to help loading my purchase up. Definitely will continue to do business with this top-notch seller.

Was like live auction bid wait rebid think rebid rebid rebid wait think rebid when you want something you forget to think just like a live auction kids in a candy store we just got bigger and greater
Thank you for the feedback, Mike!
Communication was good. Didn't like having to wire the payment but I guess that's on the sellers end. Overall good experience. Thanks
Thank you for the feedback, Michael!
One company in pa didn't send an invoice for 10 days then says i need to get the equipment off their lot within 2 days. It had been so long i figured i didnt win them. That doesnt seem like good business to me. The next place shows pictures of a complete skid loader. When it arrives it is missing the front door which was clearly in the pics. I have spent weeks on the phone trying to get this resolved. I call auction time for help to resolve this issue. What a waste of time. Makes me very hesitant to buy anything else on this site.
Thanks for the feedback! Someone will follow-up with you shortly. Auctiontime.com isn't the seller of the item and merely the platform the seller is using to sell the item.
I have used this site and their services several times. Both to buy and to sell various machines. Not only have I had good experiences, I would rate it as a bit exciting as well. Tractors, backhoe, wood splitter, dozer, trailer, and an mini-excavator.
Thank you for the repeat business!
