HiBid

On occasion this site has frozen and some auctions were cancelled and rescheduled which was very disappointing!

I'll never agree that an online auction is better than a live auction BUT I will admit hibid auctions are easy to participate in. Simple to browse,bid, and buy. I've never had any issues. Questions are always answered quickly. I feel like they run a pretty tight ship and will continue to bid on hibid auctions.

I won 3 items from NJ and they have not been in contact with me I reached out to them before and again today. Other than this issue I have really enjoyed this platform

Hesitated on getting involved with this particular auctioneer but there were several items that had me decide to make the plunge. Auctioneer insisted on charging 20% of the invoice total to bidder's credit card despite being informed in advance that the invoice would be paid with cash and/or Zelle in it's entirety. Much too short of a time period post-auction for pick up and more than 24 hours after the conclusion of the auction there had not been scheduling of pickup times. Giving them a rating of "mmehhh", will monitor.

Please ship this item to me I keep trying to get a response from your company. I seems s-mails go no were Please respond back to me

Auction was very organized and run fairly for bidders. Invoicing was finalized quickly and accurately.

I do like to have a time to see the items in person. This is usually offered.

We buy regularly from HIBID sellers in Lake Stevens and Arlington WA. All of them are friendly, cordial and usually offer great items for sale.

Hibid is very inconsistent. Would be great if they could create a bidding app like all the other platforms. It's constantly crashing and glitching.

First time using site, nice set up, all went smooth so far!
Next is shipping so we'll see!

I was the max bidder, I watched the clock run down. The final price didn't even reach my max bid. The next day I got an email that my bid was not accepted. The listing did not show any "reserve not met" message. It is quite frustrating.
I went back to the auction site and there was a line in the fine print that they had the right to refuse any bid. Why not show a reserve if there is one? Why not give the winning bidder at least a chance to increase the offer?

Love hibid and will continue to use it but the premiums are pretty high to be casually passed onto the buyer. After you win an auction, you tack on 15 in seller premiums and then 8.5% in taxes (understandable), but the incentive to buy on the platform goes down knowing that these end fees diminish how much purchasing power I actually have on the platform.

Wish it was almost case-base or category based percentage, or threshold based where if you go over a certain number like $100, $1000, or $*******, then the percentage changes.

Maybe this does exist but am not aware of it.

Thanks Hibid and customers

I bought 28 items for over $1000. Most of the items were ok. Sone were completely destroyed inside the box. I suppose this is what the inspection period is for but, like most, I traveled quite a distance to pick these items up. Had to assume that they were ok.

When you start to bid on multiple items, you line them up so you just scroll up or down and follow the bidding routine until the final bid.

Good service close to my home
Would like to see the entrance to pick up made better
The door changed to the other corner and just easier
The door is hard closes when pulling cart out be nice if it was an auto door
Was better when it was at the bottom of the hill

Auctioneer Hopkinsauction.hibid.com sold me, and I'm assuming many others, items that were labeled by the Auctioneer as "New, Unopened", when in fact ALL of the 10 items I received had been previously opened and the contents replaced with fake re-sealed goods.

All of the cards were either printed on cheap fake paper, or a plastic sticker was used, see photos.
Real cards have a black line in the middle of the card when ripped, fake ones have no black.
You can also see the variety of light and dark printing on the backside of the fake cards.
The printed text on the cards is all wrong as well.

I once recommended people to use HiBid.com, but if they allow fraudulent Auctioneers like the one I just dealt with then I'll be telling people to steer well-clear of HiBid's services.

Had 2-3 delays in the bidding process for some reason. Not sure if it was a Hibid issue or possibly an internet issue. Where i lost video temporarily in the bidding process.
