Tophatter is a joke! They are the ones writing the positive reviews. If you notice some sellers have huge auctions at the same time on the same days and have hundreds of participants. Ever wonder why. It's because these people work for Tophatter. They get extra advertising for free unlike the other sellers who are charged $50 a day to list their catalogs. I'm sure if you're on this site often enough you'll catch on to who the employees are and to the regular public sellers are. This site is by far the shadiest site I've ever seen. And you can never talk to a live person only emails. Which is good because that way you can document everything they are telling you now so when it's time to file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau you'll have everything in writing. The positive reviews from the Tophatter employees are obvious because they go on and on about how wonderful the site is. It's so obvious they are just trying to cover their tracks. If your seller make sure to check your account and your payouts often. Before I got the generic response about my account being suspended I caught them withholding money which I've never seen. And have no anticipation of ever receiving. Their founder is in his third bankruptcy which to him is no big deal Because he will just close this site to keep all of this sellers hard-earned money and open another site under a different name. I read a review that somebody has 300 friends that purchase happily and have a five star review for Tophatter but that is obviously written by one of the top hatter employees. If you're having luck on the site congratulations if you're not get out now while you still can! But make sure before you leave the site that you have been paid for all of your transactions otherwise you will never see your money and they will never respond to you. Best of luck to everyone and beware!
