Used for the first time and made a great purchase.
It's always difficult to trust online transactions for expensive items like buying antiques on live auctioneers, but the reality is that this platform works really well. Only once, when I was a novice, did I miss an item due to a technical glitch on the app. Sellers are quite responsible and described and photograph items well. The rating systems for sellers helps identify if you need to use extra caution when bidding at a particular auction. Overall I've been very pleased with LiveAuctioneers, more so than with the other popular bidding platform online.

I have acquired some very nice pieces of furniture and artwork through this website that I would never have had an opportunity to learn about. The shipping is can be a slight challenge but most of the auction houses are very helpful.

The only thing that was hard to figure out is every auction site has different shipping rules, if they had in-house shipping, it would make it easier for a first timer like me.

Bid on hard to get Federal LP primers and got them for a reasonable price. Shipped w/o hazmat fee made it cost effective. Professionally done and shipped in a timely manner.

Attention to the client varies from place to place. A good percentage of places are very obliging, very professional, very easy to deal with. Others somewhat less. Some have more restrictive ways of paying for acquisitions. Some have shipping capabilities which helps immensely. Some do not and some of the recommended third party shippers live a bit to be desired. Claims to shippers for damaged goods are very trying. For a Canadian it is rather expensive to acquire items from Live Auctioneers, because price, plus auctioneer's take, plus transportation, not very good currency exchange, very expensive shipping fees, import duties, brokerage fees, etc, make it almost prohibitively expensive. Additionally one has to be very familiar with the item because the description and pictures may exceed the actual quality of the item, if one wasn't familiar with it.

Have used Liveauctioners for a few years and never had a problem. The app. Is easy to use and the pre warning of lots I am interested in is very useful, don't always follow up but have found a number of items that fit in my collection. So I fully recommend this auction site, and well done to the analysts, designers and coders who created it.

I stumbled onto LiveAuctioneers during a quarantine late night search for sterling dollhouse miniatures.
The selection was amazing, almost too good to be true. I was very skeptical but the items offered in the

I have nothing bad to say about the options that I find on here, the only thing is to make it a little easier to take back a bid if you need to.
