IT WAS EASY SHOPPING ON YOUR SITE, VERY SECURE TO USE YOUR CREDIT CARD AND THE SELLER WAS DEFINITELY SELLING GOOD QUALITY PRODUCTS..
This is a beautiful piece of stained glass box art. It shines light red when the sun hits it. It's so beautiful, I have it displayed with my ruby red water ford crystal.
I am the owner of the Sorcerer's Cellar, a site that closed down two years ago on Bonanza. A cyber thief had spoofed the entire site, listed mine as his to trade upon my business name, reputation, copyright, identity, products, services, testimonials and my "about the owner" down to the last comma. Bonanza was notified repeatedly by myself and many loyal clients about the fraud. Even so, they refused to remove the cyber-criminal despite the fact they owe this legal due diligence to protect the public when known criminal fraud is involved. They had all the past information stolen by the criminal, so this was a blatant act of complicity with the criminal who was posing as myself, trading upon my expertise, my company name, my products, my copyrighted and trademarked SC logo. Being on eBay has always proven safer than some grey market site that says it cares about its customers and sellers while blatantly proving the exact opposite. Which site do you think will be easier to hack, Bonanza or eBay? Common sense will tell you the tinker toy site will be. It took weeks of my clients threatening Bonanza to remove the outrageous hacker who also used my identity. Stay will eBay, it's a far safer, more professional and a far more ethical site DO NOT PURCHASE FROM SITES SUCH AS BONANZA THAT ENCOURAGE, AID OR ALLOW CYBER CRIME AND IDENTITY THEFT.
When we run out the chips we bought through Bonanza I'll be ordering again. I bought potato chips we used to love to eat when we visited Spain. They're unavailable in the U.S. I found Bonanza by accident. It was definitely a happy accident.
I purchased a Osmanthus heterophyllus 'Goshiki'- Tea Olive/ Variegated Holly Leaf plant. It came very well packed and looked even better than its picture! I would definitely deal with this vendor again!
Don't get sucked in by what seem to be great deals, especially on big ticket items. You're taking a huge chance that nothing will go wrong. If you think this is Amazon, where corporate power can be leveraged to make things right, or the marketplace will do the right thing for their customer... YOU'RE WRONG!
Long story short. I purchased a chair in Mid Feb. It wasn't up to snuff. I tried to contact the seller through Bonanza, NO DICE. Bonanza directed me to contact PayPal to leverage the seller to return the product. Seller never provided return shipping which I had to pay, all $260 of it. I got a refund for the product itself... eventually, but as of now (July) i"m still waiting on the seller to reimburse my $260 shipping cost to return a $360 chair. Just received an email from Bonanza, who's done nothing but deflect me to PayPal and my Credit card company to recover costs, which states my case is closed and they refuse or are unable to told the seller to their agreement to pay return shipping.
Cannot say how disappointed I am with their lack of customer service. They've washed their hands of any responsibility since EMAIL ONE!
What in the hell is going on here? My grandma and i ordered a shirt from 'Left Lane Style' (a booth on the website that I am getting the shirt from.) It said it would arrive in 2-3 BUSINESS DAYS! IT'S BEEN PAST THAT. 3 days later, it says that it was in route... Just yesterday, July 2nd 2018 it says it shipped... If the $#*! doesn't arrive, I better figure out a way to get my damn money back because this is ridiculous. Please do your research before buying from a website, plus the booth is only 2 states away from me... This website is not trust worthy.
SINCERELY... A pair of very unhappy customers..
The vendor was very rude when I had to return an item. My credit card company helped me to receive my full refund, and understood especially since I had documentation of pictures and emails supporting my case. The website, Bonanza, couldn't help, since they are not the vendor. And for some odd reason, I couldn't post my negative review on their website, and Bonanza could not help.
Timing was quicker than e CD expected for delivery, pricing of items were very cheap and you even get a written letter with your purchase! So cute!
Great place for quality stuff, a lot at basement bargain prices. The shopping is easy, the checkout quick. I am a definite return customer going forward.
I compared the prices on line and found Bonanza to have the best price available for the product i was searching for. I received it earlier than expected and was exactly what i purchased, no surprises LOL
This site offers so many great items. I've bought unique jewelry that I've never seen on any other site. My new favorite place to spend shopping time online! Using my paypal was easy and I have received all items that I have ordered.
I love it. Great quality and works super cool. I will be ordering more products again. Thank you Bonanza for this amazing product.
I kept reading how Bonanza is better than feebay. BS. Just another site to grab your money with false promises. Bunch of hype and a HUGE waste of my valuable time and energy.
I just opened and closed my seller account. Now I understand why they say; Bonanza is the new eBay, with a lot of buyers per seller.". Because reputable sellers not going to sell on Bonanza. At the beginning of opening my seller's account. It said free listing and 3.5% final value fees and no upfront fees. However, right before completing the booth setup. Bonanza wants 30% of your sale for advertising. $25 to 250 per month billed annually for membership in order to provide you with what you get on eBay for free. And you do not have to wait days for customer service response if you have a question or concern. I can just pick up the phone and call eBay customer service if I want too without paying for it or waiting until days later for a half $#*! answer through e-mail. If I would transfer my listing from eBay to Bonanza? I would of end up paying more than 40% of my sale to bonanza while I can get more support, advertising and a storefront from eBay for 1/3 of what Bonanza want. After reviewing the rates? I believe; Bonanza sellers are the ones who were kicked out of eBay and Amazon and there are no other options available to them. Just cannot imagine anybody would pay half of their gross sales to Bonanza unless they have too. I don't
I came across an apparel Item I have been wanting for several months now but could not afford. I came across it on Bonanza.com at a fraction of the price. I ordered it being a little apprehensive yet it arrived earlier than expected and was just as pristine and nice as I had anticipated. If it had not been for Bonanza.com I could have never afforded this, not anytime soon at least. I had a safe, secure transaction... the sizing was different running much smaller than USA dimensions which I had compensated for having traveled to Asia before and buying clothes there. I will shop Bonanza.com again and highly recommend it.
I bought a soldering stand and got a smashed box of wifi motor cycle speakers? I will never use this site again, and I really recommend no one does. Hands down my worst online experience ever.
We live in USA. We ordered an item from Bonanza. After searching several suppliers, we found that Bonanzas price was much better.
We ordered the item & expected it to arrive in 3-4 week (that was our estimation). To our surprise the item arrived in a week. That was great!
I strongly recommend this seller to anyone. Thank you
Had a need to purchase a modified Sega Genesis USB Hub to create a gift for my wife, chatting with the site owner and he didn't even have the item up, but was willing to create one for me, the item is absolutely perfect and I had an amazing experience.
This is a good a Jersey deal as you will find. Great quality fit and craftsmanship. I will def buy again from this seller

Answer: Not fake but not a good site to do business
Answer: Ebay. I always get great customer service from ebay... as a seller. Bonanza provides no customer service; if you have an issue, they just keep sending the same "canned" response over and over... and I had one sale on Bonanza for which they charged me a 17% fee... then they took $25 more out of my bank account... I have addressed both of these issues with Bonanza... Regarding the huge 17% fee... they sent me about seven (7) of the same "canned" response. I wanted a lesser % fee since their website claims they always charge the "lowest fee possible"... just one "canned" response after another... If they would have offered a more reasonable % fee in order to provide me with satisfactory customer service. I would have been satisfied; but they did not... after the seventh "canned" response... I closed my booth... And NOW... EVEN WORSE... they took an additional $25.00 out of my bank account... and for what I have no idea. I called the phone number which was listed with the transaction on my bank account and of course got a recording. I left my information, and it has been four days... and still no response. When you call ebay, you speak to a live person who works to solve your concerns... I HATE BONANZA... and you would think that BONANZA would not want RIDICULOUSLY UNHAPPY CUSTOMERS... but they do not care. I moved all my ebay items to Bonanza to see if it was a better experience than ebay... ebay's fees are 10%... and they have a much larger shopping audience... and they have real customer service people that you can talk to. Bonanza has a much smaller shopping audience, NO CUSTOMER SERVICE AT ALL, and their goal appears to be to charge sellers the most enormous fees that they can get away with. I never get online to post negative reviews... I generally get online to post about great customer service and great products... I like to keep things on the POSITIVE... but this is just not possible with BONANZA... they are like a Phantom Selling Platform... totally disgusted. I will be reporting BONANZA to the BBB and to the US Attorney General's Office. Very disappointing experience.
Answer: Sellers can create and offer coupons with zero limitations ("Sell on Bonanza > Edit booth options > Discounts & Coupons").
Answer: I set up my account with Bonanza and their platform is pretty much the same as setting up an account with eBay, Etsy, Amazon, etc. What problems are you having?
Answer: I have never seen any benefit to paying extra for advertising. Bonanza just doesnt do it like ebay does. Have you ever seen a Bonanza ad on TV? Nope. And therein lies the problem. Nobody will shop there if they havent heard of it. True many sellers are leaving ebay (or sadly being kicked off by the BS) but nearly everyone goes to Bonanza to SELL not to buy.
Answer: Yes and the answer be sure if ya are absent minded of being taken advantage of..
