I like to log on to Tophatter. I never know what interesting items might come up once I get on. It is fun to find some things that I can get bidding with just one other bidder and winning for a great price! It is also fun and exciting to bid with multiple bidders whether I win or not! Even then the price is usually great. So log on and have some fun!
I love shopping on tophatters. It's fun easy and affordable. Shipping is usually fast. Majority of the time there products are right on point as it's described. Everytime you go to there site it's a surprise there is something for everyone.

Although most of the stuff comes from over sea`s. Some sellers have outrageous shipping cost. Therefore one needs to watch the shipping charges. Besides that it is a great site to buy from. Tophatter dose solve problem fast and refunds your money quickly too.
Hi Ty! Thanks for responding to Tophatter's experience survey!
I'd love to tell you more about the shipping cost. The shipping prices are specified by the Seller as only the Seller can account for all their costs in sending an item. The shipping costs are displayed prior to bidding.
Once again, we would like to thank you for sharing your experience and continued support!

I love a good deal. 9 out of 10 times I am very happy with my purchases. I love to bid, but there have been times that I have just made a straight purchase. Having that option is nice. It's a fun site.

I absolutely love this site. I've been addicted since the first day I started bidding. The best thing about it is that the auctions are short. The prices are great. So far I' ve bought almost 30 great items. They range from electronics to jewelry and I haven't spent more than $10 for each one. And in most cases they ship within a day or two.

I love Tophatter! I really like their items they offer for bidding and starting at only a $1.00 and sometimes even free shipping, unbelievable! I have ordered many things from Tophatter and have never been disappointed, in fact, sometimes pleasantly surprised! I enjoy sitting down in the evening and watching the bidding and usually participating... it is very addicting!

Have purchased many items and only been disappointed a couple of times. Clothes sizes are a lot smaller! Chains on pendants sometimes to short and bracelets for small wrists. Overall have received all purchases often early.

Answer: There is also the FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION that can help with these types of problems
Answer: You have to read the descriptions. It will tell you if it's real or plated.
Answer: Do not deal with this company,,, all jewelery is crap n cheap
Answer: Tophatter will screw you over. Shop Amazon or overstock.
Answer: Good luck! Tophatter rippes off the sellers so they are not going to be very likely to return your money.
Answer: Justin you are absolutely correct. I find out the hard way. I had my own auction with nice AUTHENTIC designer items and cosmetics (Becca, Cargo, Smahbox, Too Faced, etc). I lost big time. $40 Cargo palette sold for $10; it cost me $15. Items that I started higher to cover my cost never sold. I still had to pay fees for the item being listed. A $200 Calvin Klein purse sold for $20; it cost me $80 wholesale. Run!
Answer: If you end up buying a few items from the same seller they can do a combined shipment but you rarely get the same buyer items since they only let the sellers sell 10 items a day. It is different for the sellers that have their own auctions.
Answer: You will notice the same names no matter the day, time etc. Bidding against you very often. Is it a coincidence? Personally I don't believe in coincidences.
Answer: Depends on what you are selling. Yes, a lot of items go unsold in the jewelry and accessories categories... as well as others. Coach and Michael Kors and other designer brands, not much goes unsold, because here's the catch - - you pay fees on the starting bid. TH wants everything to start at $1. So you get punished if you start higher as to not get screwed by a low purchase price. Say you buy a designer bag for $120. If you start that bag at $100, you're already paying over $10 in fees. **IF** you can manage to sell it for a profit, there are still the commission and bank fees. If you start it at $1, you're barely paying any listing fees but it might only sell for $80 (or less!). So, less fees, but you lost your ass on the item. It's messed up. Most sellers have put in their time to see if they can make a profit or to see if TH will change, but they all seem to end up leaving. I'm convinced the only ones who stay to sell there are the counterfeit or crappy quality sellers who are buying items for next to nothing, because that seems to be the only way to make a profit there these days. I would go the ebay route if you're looking to sell.
Answer: Yes! Sale of counterfeit items is prohibited. If you are concerned about the authenticity of an item purchased on the platform, you may return it for up to 30 days from delivery. See full details on our return policy here: http://tinyurl.com/h7xokwj.
