Have used hibid for a year now with many different auctions and always has been easy and fast to use. Been very pleased with my experience.

I have bid and I have lost as well as won. I enjoy being able to look at auctions several months in advance also. Great job.

Always a great experience bidding, payments, and pick-up with this auction house.
Accurate descriptions and will let you know if there is any issue with the lot.

Easy to bid and get my items easy to work with auctioneers

I enjoy the thrill of bidding against the unknown people

It was great and o found a lot of wonderful stuff and useful things that I can use and needed

I have enjoyed going to live auctions for many years, and had a large collection of antiques. Over the past several years I have started using online auction services. I like using this service as it is multiple auctions in any place you may be in at any given time. Mostly, I love searching for things I can use at a lower price than buying from a store. I am having a great time using this, and have found some amazing deals!

Apparently somewhere on Hibid, sellers can leave feedback about the buyers. I apparently have some negative notes. When I tried to address/see them there is NOWHERE for me to go, and Hibid couldn't help get the information. Other auctioneers can see them but not me. I admit to occasionally forgetting I have a bid but I always try to pay and usually offer to compensate for the inconvenience. This is wrong, cause the auction houses are denying registering for auction based on this information, that I can't see or address. I will not use a company that is spreading such negative information about me. Makes me fill like I need a lawyer.

It is an amazing site that I am absolutely loving! It's perfect for my personal and business needs. It is time saving and extremely user friendly.
Thank you

It was very helpful and efficient in promptly reimbursing the state sales tax, which was greatly appreciated.

I bought over $10.000 worth of stuff from HiBid auctioneers and always paid for the merchandise yet I am told that my "HiBid score" is low and many auctioneers do not let me bid on their merchandise. Moreover, am not allowed to to sell there. I am switching to BidSpririt.

HiBid enables fraudulent shill bidding practices by allowing sellers or auctioneers see maximum bids. This promotes the sellers to bid up to your maximum bid without the intent of buying the item. SHAME ON THEM FOR ENABLING UNETHICAL BEHAVIOR.

New rule od anything under$20 os final sale whether it's not working or missing parts is terrible
And items over$20 they still will not return
Do not deal with this criminal organization

Learned a lot of lessons. Just because it says 'shipping available' means nothing. The Canadian Auctions are the worst, ignore them. They like to sell your winnings by emailing you the invoice, then say you paid late. They keep your money, resell your win, and report you for being a late payment. The other one that does this are the Kentucky ones. There are some good ones, though. The Hibid site only takes Auction complaints, not the bidder. I left this site after too many losses and very rude Auctioneers.

HiBid.com is like the Wild West with even less accountability. Many auction houses post purposely misleading, broken and outright counterfeit items. Not only does HiBids not hold them accountable but as a buyer you can not leave reviews, reporting them to HiBids does nothing because their customer service is equally distasteful and malcontent. Seller's not only can get away with fraudulent practices, they leave little to no descriptions, put as is, mislabel and mislead, shill bid and price gouge shipping. To top all of this off Seller's can leave reviews on buyers that only sellers can see, and they can do it anonymously, so not only can they leave bad reviews about buyers for any reason under the sun, but a buyer can be shut down from bidding- unable to know what, why, from whom, contest or defend themselves, unable to receive refunds, absolutely nothing. HiBids customer service response is the same, "there's nothing you can do, back track all of your auctions you've bid on and speak to each one individually and see if they will admit to a negative review and change it otherwise make a new account with a different email address". It baffles me how a site like this not most of its shady auctioneers aren't neck deep in legal issues. The whole structure in place is completely one sided on purpose and HiBids is content with it as long as they get their cut of the profit because they knowingly exploit all of the legal loopholes and don't even deny it when you eventually speak to one of their representatives. I highly recommend avoiding this site thoroughly or limit yourself to local in state auctioneers that you can inspect for yourself in person assuming they let you, alot of the deceitful auctioneers are catching on and making bidding online only with no in person inspections, pickups or payments all under the guise of "COVID Safety". Tread very carefully for the sake of being scammed and retaliated against.
