Love this site. Local auctions. Lots of different auctions. Easy to find pick up locations. No problem with any items purchased through this site.
Super easy. The only aggravating part was loosing the bid. This site is my new go to site. I'm waiting for all the other towns in my area to open up.
Never had an issue as a buyer. Easy to join, easy to bid. What is said is what I bought. Employees have mostly been pleasant and helpful.
I have participated as a buyer in two auctions. I thought the process was satisfactory. I will bid again.
I imagine your accounting works for high end items, but the math for the average sales doesn't add up.
I was contemplating using MaxSold to clear out my and my sister's house until I checked things out and realized that they cannot really help the seller get a fair price due to all the fees and commissions, which is unfortunate. As a buyer though, it is a great place to find a bargain. They are correct when they state that it is difficult to get rid of large items, but it is not impossible.
I think that I should have grouped together more items on each lot for purposes of selling more stuff.
In Maxsold you can find a variety of super interesting objects, apart from its operators will guide you to find what you need
Bidding and buying is so easy and the people are so friendly and helpful! You could not ask for a better auction site!
MaxSold is a great company that provides the loved objects of the people with a second chance to be loved and appreciated by a new owner.
Discovered Maxsold a few months ago and I have made many pleasant purchases since. 100% happy as a buyer and would definitely consider as a seller.
Professional, courteous and very helpful. They even remember my name. They take me right to my item and are always there to help carry the items.
What is going on with your company and your staff? First the auction lots were totally absurd in size? Why have 50-100 items in 1 lot? So many potential bidders are going to skip bidding as they are not going to want 95% of the items involved? Second this is totally screwing the seller out of potential extra revenue as these lots could be grouped into 10-15 smaller lots which would attract many more bidders. I bid on some larger lots because there were a few items that I wanted only to be threatened by one member of the staff that I had to take everything or she was getting hold of Max sold? This ironically after I said I would have to come back since I was not aware that was the policy. I promptly informed her that there are literally 100s of auction houses out there and that was fine. Since she chose to accuse and threaten action on me before giving me the chance to come back I chose to tell her because of her rudeness and lack of business etiquette in speaking to a buyer that I was not coming back for the left items and to take them or give them away which brings me to my other issue? Why does this company not contract someone to take unsold and leftover items for free? There are plenty of people and companies out there that would be more than happy to take the scraps. I buy over $100,000 annually from local auctions and every other auction has solved the problems yet they have not? Either via smaller lots or a cleanout crew. To say the least my future $1000s spent will most likely not be going to maxsold auctions as they might have? I was looking to expand buying to more local auctions but this was not worth it,. Ridiculous lot size and rude demands to take everything or be banned? I'll take banned happily if that's the case. Worst experience I have encountered at a auction pick up and I have been to 100s. Buyer and seller beware! I would rate this 0 stars if possible
Great service. Better then kijiji or a garage sale. Staff is great and always get what is described.
I am very satisfied with the information they provide helps to have a better quality with the environment
So far we have had wonderful success with maxsold. Nice people, easy to find, easy to use website. We have only been a buyer and not a seller.
I feel like I was ripped off they take way too much and leave you with nothing wouldnt go with them again
It’s an unfortunate reality that the market doesn’t typically value a seller’s goods in the same way the Seller values them - even using a competitive auction model. At MaxSold, we do our very best to provide both a detailed outline of our process and share our past auction data to prepare sellers for the realities of the market when items must be sold.
Sellers have both financial and emotional attachments to items. Our job is to sell only those items they need to part with (typically items that will soon be a liability due to a move or a sale of real estate) as selling the items avoids ongoing costs (moving, storage, etc.). Our model, which sells everything to the highest bidder, guarantees a finite and transparent experience that passes the logistical burden of removal onto the buyers at a location and time specified by the Seller. This saves hundreds (if not thousands) in labor alone.
Where other solutions try to control prices while having no control over time of sale, MaxSold gives the seller control of time while giving up control of price to market competition. For people who have items that will soon cost them to hold onto, this is the most economical (and green) solution to the problem of getting things removed on a timelines (typically for a much larger value proposition such as a closing real estate transaction or avoiding ongoing rental costs).

Maxsold testimonials from actual Sellers as well as data from alternatives we’ve seen others use solidify the fact that other 3rd party solutions cannot solve the stuff problem for a better net result. In fact, although our commission works well in high end scenarios, it was built specifically to be the most economic model in modest value scenarios that, before Maxsold, could only be solved by junk and donation solutions as alternative sale of goods companies require fair high minimum values than Maxsold.
If a Seller values their time at $0/hr, there’s certainly no competing with that as it can take an individual 100s of hours to sell 10s of items via free DIY solutions. However, no service provider, Maxsold or otherwise, can (or should) be an alternative in this scenario.
MaxSold continues to reinvest all funds made in the pursuit of its vision of providing everyone access to a downsizing or estate sale because to Maxsold - it’s how you sell, not what you sell, that matters. (http://maxsold.com/maxsold-purpose/).
