PoliceAuctionsReviews 262

The site impersonates a police auction page to sell cheap low quality jewellery at inflated prices. The items pictured are often worth thousands of dollars but the items delivered are cheap knock offs with glass jewels low quality gold or other metals painted gold. Many of the items snapped/broke in the mail. Might as well be called fakevalubles.com

Note that the page also has given itself fake reviews to try balance out people calling it a scam

I bought a iced out gold diamond watch on a here a while back it looked like the real deal that was until it was delivered when I opened up my package I knew right away that it was fake even b4 I looked it over jst by the sound of it comin out. It sounded like the meterial used to make it was tin, than when I looked at it, it was miscolored and looked like a watch U used 2 get out of those $1 machines outside of supermarkets that were inside of an egg shaped plastic container. Absolutely disgraceful how U could even send someone that sh! T they tried sending me if I could give a lower rating I most definitely would... negative -100 is my rating

If you write a complaint to BBB, they write back a computer generated response to all and if you don't keep the case open, the BBB closes it as solved. BBB gives this company an A plus because of that. I will write BBB and keep the case open from the auto response that police auction gives. Usually a police auction is from stuff taken from drug dealers and such. This is all fake stuff they send you. Not real. Can buy at a dollar store. Want to buy fake jewelry there are plenty of sites lagit that sya they are imitation jewels for like $10

This is a first rate scam site, with no intention of being a legitimate business.
First of all Police Auctions is NOT related in any way to real police auctions. Their name is fraudulent. Their items are 100% fake as we know now. Their 'business' will be shut down very soon, we'll make sure to contribute to that. We ordered four items including one with 19 diamonds. Upon arrival, all 19 diamonds were invisible to the human eye! Worse, we examined them under a magnifying glass, and they were crude, terrible fakes. Worse still, 5 were missing completely, with holes where the fakes had been. The items were all absolutely terrible, shoddy ripoff material, with no weight to them. The auctions are being bidded on by robots, that is now very clear. The same item get auctioned, because they are NOT the items in the photos. Their confused, deceptive policy can't sugarcoat the fraud that they are committing in selling phony bidded, bait and switch, fake material, and outright missing content items. Make sure you get a refund with all your involved institutions. Beware to all who enter.

I, too, unfortunately did not research before starting business with these frauds. All their products appear fake and I doubt it's a real auction at all - I saw what appeared to be glitches in software. I had to have my credit card cancelled and have multiple transactions in dispute with my bank; I am going to try to dispute the shipping charges as well, as that's how I think they keep making money. Google playstore is working on removing their mobile app, as they also found some anomalies in addition to my report (which doesn't work well anyway - another red flag). Have reported them to the FTC. Will be reporting to other federal agencies, UPS, the Postmaster General, and the State of California, as that is where there merchandise is sent from, and to anybody else who will listen.

What tipped me off was an inadequate response when I tried to track an expensive purchase - either the link or the tracking number was bad but I kept getting the same canned responses from customer "support." Phone calls went to voicemail. When I threatened to report them for credit card fraud they responded IMMEDIATELY, but the response was still inadequate.
