The tracking sucks some of the items are not good. And I have waiting on an item for over a month that they just sent out the other day. And plus it takes so long to ship out.

Somewhat satisfied!
June 22, 2019

Although I like Tophatter, there are a couple things I don't like. I don't like being locked out because I accidentally bid on something. I think there should be someway of retracting a bid before you win something you don't want. And I don't like the LONG lead time that is needed to ship my items after I have paid. Also when I want a reminder I am not getting them before they go up for auction.

Hi Chris,

Thank you for your review.

The block from bidding occurs when too many items have been cancelled. This block is only temporary and does time out fairly quickly. Please see more on our cancellation policy here https://tinyurl.com/y8uzqbag Though you won't be able to bid on items until the block has timed out, you can still purchase buy now items.

We believe that listening to you is one of the most important things we can do to improve. Thank you for your feedback regarding implementing an option to retract bids, it will be shared with our team.

On Tophatter we have an extended ship time of 30 days domestically and 60 days for all international shipments.

I definitely understand wanting what you paid for to arrive as soon as possible.

After you've purchased, you can click on any item from your My Orders page then click *Where's My Item?* to find the current status and timeline.

Please know you are covered by Buyer Protection http://tinyurl.com/j8eo7hu against non-delivery if tracking does not update to show delivered to the address you provided at the time of payment.

I'm sorry to hear you are not getting reminders.

If you have never installed the Tophatter app:

Go to http://tophatter.com/
Log into your account
Click your name, then click "Account": https://tophatter.com/profile
Be sure your phone number is entered correctly
Click Save at the bottom of the page

If your phone number is correct and you still haven't received a reminder, text the word START to the most recent number from which you received a reminder. If you can't find a recent reminder, text the word START to 650-290-6579 to reset reminders.

Hi Lucretia,

Thank you for your review. We hope every shopper will be delighted with every purchase, but understand that not everything can be perfect. I am truly sorry your item isn't what you expected. I do understand how disappointing and frustrating that must be. If for any reason you’re not completely satisfied, you can request to return an item for up to 30 days from the date of delivery. A full refund of the original price paid will be processed upon return of the item in its original condition. To request a return, visit My Orders, click the item, then click Return Item.

Shoppers also have the option to rate their delivered items. Rating items is important because 1.) other buyers will be able to review the average rating on products before they bid, and 2.) items rated consistently low will automatically stop being scheduled on the platform. For these reasons we encourage you to rate the products you have purchased, although doing so is not required.

Warm Regards,

I see way to many reviews of Items bought by individuals that are disappointed at the size of the item they were expecting. I am one of those people. I bought an elephant pillow that was so cute in the picture, you know the one that has the baby laying on it. It looks to be a wonderful size and item that draws your attention. Very misleading. I don't care if your description states that its mm's or cc's or whatever. When I received this much anticipated, exciting and beautiful potential baby gift; it was way smaller than what I thought I was getting, I was very disappointed. STOP... making things look bigger in the pictures and show a realistic size. You can add an up close photo also, but show the actual size. Same with coins.
