They extend the bidding time every time a bid is made at the end of the "auction" to drive up the pricing - which at any legitimate auction house would be illegal. Whatever you are looking at can be bought on Etsy or ebay without dealing with crooks. Run - do not walk away!

I was lucky enough to win a ring at a decent price. That said, the shipping was more than 10% of sale price; it would've cost less to have jewelry shipped from Europe. They also charged sales tax even though I live out of state; rationale is that they have an affiliate business in New York. In the end, $30 was added to the sale price. It's actually a hidden buyer's premium. Highly questionable and deceptive. I'd advise against bidding here.

Love this site!
August 23, 2017

Can't stop watching, bidding and buying!
This site always has so many different and unique items. So far all of my buying experiences have been great. I love the extended bidding, it keeps someone from swooping in at the last minute and beating you with a $1 increase.

Won 3 ben Hamptons' never received them never found out what happened. Now I have won another Ben Hampton at a super price and they even issued a tracking #. Inquired twice by email and talked to customer service. There has been no word from them so i had to call credit card company. I will no longer bid with these people.

EBTH used to be very accurate in checking and describing items. The last 4 items purchased, were significantly and obviously broken in several spots but marked "Condition: Good" precluding any type of gifting or resale. Customer service is not at all helpful, and really not very nice at all! Just lost total trust in this company! I will be closing my account.

Twice I won auctions and the items never show up. Call after call to customer (dis)service only stalls the inevitable refund. But meanwhile, 6 weeks have gone by while they have your money. Not worth the effort. Stay away

318 Complaints filed with the Better Business Bureau. This alone should keep you away. Others filing glowing 5 star reviews have never posted for anyone else. That should also make you suspicious. I will take my business somewhere else.

Bought 4 items of art glass. Paid $1,766 without tax or shipping. Paid $183.34 in shipping for UPS Ground. Credit card charges on 4/8/17. Items not shipped until 4/26/17 and I still don't have them! Seriously. No really, seriously.

STAY FAR AWAY
April 14, 2017

This company has not a clue it is come to the home and get out as quick as possible a bunch of gypsy's has more regard for your belongings than these lazy good for nothing people. No idea how to describe anything. Just stay away from this band of stumble bums

I'm so pleased dealing with EBTH. Few months ago, I called them to inform I driving from Atlanta to Cincinnati to pick up a larger item. They could not have been more helpful! I thank the poor past reviews was from the time it had merger and since that time, EBTH is back to the original owners control! Smartly wrapped, safe packing on all my items shipped. Shipments are now arriving in amazing fast time. I would like to thank every employee for doing an outstanding job! Thank you EBTH for items I now have that I could not have afforded without your sales! From one very Happy customer keeping you busy

Total scam
December 22, 2017

There customer service is the worse. Had them sell three item and when I got to.the warehouse, they told me I had to move my own furniture. You would do better to donate your items to Goodwill and get the tax right off. Total scam. Stay away.

I never received my 2 last orders that I paid for. I got refund in 50 days after I paid and they said they can not locate my item. 2 times in a row? Looks weird, isn't it? I read that other people complained they didn't get their items too. I don't believe that my items were lost or their employee steals somebody's orders from the warehouse. It's more likely that they borrow our money for free for couple of months and then inform us they can not find your item. They found the way to have free cash flow without selling anything. This company don't have good reputation and don't care about brand that they created. Acting like one-day company.

Ive spent over $10,000 with this company but I'm done. Last week I submitted a request via chat to Sophia to find out if an item could be broken down into parts... a very simple question. I never received a response but purchased the item regardless. Two days after the auction ended, I received a response from Sophia stating no one from the team ever responded to her. Is no one accountable? Do they not care about their customers? Now, I guess Ill have to rent a trailer to pick up the item when I may not need to. The bottom line is that they just don't care. They've lost a good customer.

IF they are not honest on shipping costs, then they will be other issues with honesty also. Nice business concept, but run with no competency or ethics. Back to Ebay who have issues, but nowhere like this company!

Great Job
July 2, 2018

The Auctions and selling was easy and they listened when I needed changes. Will sell again. I also am a buyer and find the Charlotte office just top notch to deal with directly. Others are good as well.

Everyone that I worked with at Everything But The House was knowledgeable, friendly, attentive and action-oriented. They took a potentially painful process and made it simple, quick and profitable for me. Their speed and professionalism really impressed me.

Excellent
October 17, 2018

They are always concerned with details... pack items perfectly... easy site access... so many items to entice your spirit of decorating... so far excellent experiences... thank you. Most of all I love the fact they send a thank you card with every purchase... this way I can write on the back what it is and when I purchased it for future reference.

Great website and customer service
July 22, 2018
Updated review

I have now purchased multiple items of artwork on this site and have been just as happy with everyone of them. They have been exactly as described and pictured on the website, and shipment has been timely. Their shipping department clearly makes every effort in terms of wrapping and packaging to ensure the pieces arrive safely. I had an inquiry about one piece before it arrived, and the customer service was fast and professional.

Happy with my first purchase
July 22, 2018
Previous review

I just received my first purchase--an original oil on canvas board roughly 18" x 13". The painting was packaged with care with sufficient bubble wrap and fill material in the box to protect it during shipping. Shipping cost was as estimated at the time of bidding. The painting itself was exactly as represented in the text and in the photograph. I am very pleased with this purchase!

Received expensive item of art broken. Called immediately. Amanda could not have cared less. Dryly stated that they would email a form. I explained that I loved the piece and would be willing to keep it if they would repair. I was told that I would have to do the research and get an estimate. After spending over three hours of my time with no result, still told the same thing. You only have thirty days. No estimate, no money back. When I explained that I work full time and that I really did not have time to do this I was told by Amanda that she is busy too. That's our policy. Take it or leave it. Well, I'm leaving as a customer.

I bid on and won an oil painting that I saw and wanted for my husband. I won. I was charged. Weeks went by and no picture. After asking, I am now told the picture was somehow lost in their warehouse and the customer service staff would not connect me with a supervisor. I'm very upset by this. Was it because someone decided it was valuable, or did it ever exist? Waste of time and effort. Very sad.
