HiBid

Overview

The company has established a reputation for providing a user-friendly online auction platform, with many customers appreciating the ease of bidding and tracking items. Positive feedback highlights the quality of products and efficient transaction processes. However, significant concerns arise regarding website performance, excessive shipping charges, and insufficient customer support, particularly in resolving issues related to missing items and unclear invoicing. Overall, while the platform is favored for its convenience and product variety, improvements in customer service responsiveness and transparency in seller charges are necessary to enhance the overall customer experience.

I won a bid on flooring which was described as new, open box, retails $129.99/box X80. Actually was 80 sq ft!
Fortunately, money was returned, but my plans were ruined!

Love it.
March 25, 2024

Great experience. So much fun. Love getting gently used items at a fraction of the cost of new. I also feel great knowing I'm buying something someone else treasured that I can now treasure.

Pleasant experience
June 16, 2024

The only draw back was when it got down to under a minute, and someone else outbid me, it was hard to keep tabs if I wanted to view the next lots selling and go back to the one I was trying to get.

Mostly seamless...
December 7, 2023

I like the bidding format on HiBid. The only thing that gets me is in the last moments of the bidding time when it goes to Live Bid - I wish it would not go away from the Watchlist page. Other than that, I think this is one of the best online auction platforms I have found, and I have used several over the last six years or so.

Buyer beware
June 6, 2024

Be careful what you bid on from here. Bid on an item that did not work at all and was in very damaged state. When picking up I was told I had three days to test to confirm that it worked when I reached out to say it didn't work they said they would not do anything. The item was in bad shape when picked up. Below is the ad for what I based my bid on.

USED LIKE NEW - POWER TEST, NO MANUAL, MAY MISSING ACCESSIORES - BISSELL Spinwave Cord Powered Hard Floor Mop - Quiet Operation with On Demand Spray for Sealed Hard Floor Surfaces - Includes Trial Formula, A Set of Soft Pads and A Set of Scrub Pads MSRP:$ 159.74

The only thing in the box was the badly damaged floor mop nothing else that was listed above. Instead of may be missing some accessories why not be honest and state no accessories."

I hate the new website, it's not user friendly at all. A lot of people that use it agree. You made worse instead of better. Have no desire to search anything because it's so frustrating.

Items are well described in excellent detail with pictures and written descriptions.
Early bidding is convenient and when closing the soft close is awesome as you get time to outbid your competitors.

They make false representations on coin grades and quality to induce bids well above market value. Buyer Beware. The raw coins offered here are not what they represent.

My first auction bidding experience

Bidding online opens opportunities for items located in other states, and the process is easy! Just make sure the auction shows that shipping is available.

Supposedly I have three denials and I've paid for every item I bought on this auction site. Nor do they have a contact option or make it easy to find out exactly what the issue actually is.
