Needs better outbid/bid notifications
May 11, 2017

Would prefer text when outbid on item instead of email. Only used once, can't give full review.
Sign up process ok.

Almost there

Sometimes it takes a little longer than I would expect to receive the won items, notification has been somewhat spotty.

I really enjoyed the online bidding process. Items were exactly as pictured. Great option for times when there is no auctions close to home.

Great experience

Very pleasant evening bidding and watching other bids. Quite exciting when two possibly valuable paintings were about to close! No problems at all.

Why is it we only look for these pages once we've had an issue...

The facts... I have an issue with an auction house which resulted in a black flag on my account from proxibid. I contacted proxibid looking for support. They offer none. "Proxibid is simply a means of putting the buyer and the auction houses in touch" They do not offer support for a black flag on your account & will only remove it once the auction house says everything has been resolved regardless of the matter.

Please note, its been a month and a half of emailing to get to the end result of $14.00. My account has been on hold for 45 day's all over 14$. Also note, today was the first time they emailed me about anything. I did not get notice of the black flag & account lockout, and I've emailed them 6 times and have called 3 times to get here. So, if you're planning to look into anything with these guys, grab a chair because they are going to drag this along until you just simply... go away.

For those who want my story:

I had an auction company triple the cost of shipping on an order compared to a previous order with them. When I questioned them, they took offense and told me that just because I got a great deal on my items didn't mean I was going to get cheap shipping. I bought (9) 12" action figures. They said the shipment was (2) large boxes at 32LBS. That works out to 3.5LBS per action figure... 2 Large boxes? So basically this became an unpaid invoice to which proxibid will not help me with, resulting in a black flag that they will not remove because I'm not willing to send a scamming business my $14...

I hope this helps people make an informed decision when dealing with this company. I understand issues only affect a few, but best to know what you're getting into from a user perspective.

Won Proxibid for an aircraft; agent called to say sale "was subject to seller approval." Seller wanted another 10K plus for the airplane!

Scam site!
