ABSOLUTELY LOVE Proxibid. I bought my daughters first cars on your site. I have spent literally thousands and thousands of dollars and have bought stuff that I would not have had an opportunity to buy otherwise. If you do your research on the items you are interested in, you will not be disappointed. The only thing that gets to me is the BUYERS PREMIUM. It continues to sky rocket. I was on one auction site and the BUYERS Premium was 26%. UHG! Over All my experience has been WONDERFUL!
When Auction Houses are to send invoices thru Proxibid. You have several days to pay. After the first invoices, Proxibid aloud access to my credit card and was charged the times by the same Auction Houses. Proxibid customer service just said that they cannot do anything. You have to contact the Auction House. This the second time this happened. I had to file a complaint with another State Attorney General office on the first one. Still no $$ or merchandise. There will not be a Third Time, I canceled my account with Proxibid.

I recently participated in the CT Firearms auction on proxy bid. The descriptions were accurate and the staff at CT Firearms were helpful. The bidding goes fast. Know what you want and your max bid. It's easy to get caught up in the action. Also, bid as soon as possible. I missed one lot due to not being fast enough, my fault, not theirs. All in all, great experience.

I received a call from 6 & 6 Auction from Bill, went through the bidding history and explained exactly what occurred - two of us bid the exact same amount on the maximum bid... I was the first to select that maximum and that's how it went down. Bill was really nice and said they are very honest. Happy with that.
NOTE that your online bidding will automatically reach your MAXIMUM bid amount with no one else bidding on item. This is unfair and unethical business practice and needs to be reported to the better business bureau or other agency that can do something about this. I also heard they allow the owners of the items to bid on their items to jack the price up!
As a hobby, participating in auctions has occupied me for many years. Over the last 5 years I have migrated to the on line auctions for convenience. Although, not matching the social experience, the same energy and synergy with the bidding is all there. I highly recommend ProxiBid. Their auctioneers are accessible and supply quality collectibles and unique merchandise. ProxiBid itself also provides good customer service.
Do yourself a favor and join in, you won't regret it. My experience has been top notch!
Answers questions quickly and accurately. Good at communication between buyers and sellers. Hope to use again.
I have used Proxibid's online auction service to buy several items from different companies --including a Mack truck!--and have never been disappointed with a purchase. The sellers I have contacted have been knowledgeable and polite. When I have had items shipped they have arrived well-packaged, in a timely manner, and at a reasonable cost. The variety of items available is awesome. I think you could find almost anything on Proxibid!
Easy, trustworthy, FUN! I had never participated in an online auction before and was extremely pleased with my successful results in the winning bid for a vintage sewing machine at an amazing price! Thank you Proxibid!
Smooth bidding, Easy use of web service. Wonderful customer service. Fast response with receipts. I would recommend this site to anyone.
Thanks for the variety of antiques, curio and relics on your auctions. It keeps my business going. Very rarely have I come across any problems and the service is there to help. Thanks capt. John
Proxibid is easy to use & offers lots of fun & excitement. This was my very first auction & I was so pleased to be the high bidder on some of the lots. I am 66, retired, & living on a fixed income. Thank you, Proxibid, for helping me to cross off many of the items on my old lady wish list. I will be bidding in other Proxibid auctions soon. See you then!
We've purchased several items through Proxibid and it's always been a smooth transaction. No issues.
I had a very good time the first time I bid on Proxibid. The bibing was not hard to keep up with and I will try again
Proxibid is sort of a clearinghouse for online auctions. You can search online for things you're interested in, or search by geographic area. Lots of fun. Easy to use their online application. Just as with any other clearinghouse, just do your research on the auction houses. If an item is selling for an unbelievable price, it is a good idea to check them out independently. But other than those few, most are very reputable, service is good, and great delivery. Proxibid also helps with resolution in those few instances of disagreement with an auction house. This is my primary site for online auction clearing houses.
I always enjoy my time at the Proxibid auctions. When I do get myself into a little scramble and call for help, they're always patient, efficient and pleasant. If Proxibid were not so good, I wouldn't be spending so much.
Thanks for asking and keep up the good work.
Great format. Auction starts on time and goes at a good pace. Billing comes straight away. A pleasure to do business with Jim Bennett and his crew.
Have had great experiences with Proxibid for the last 2 years. I bid on an item on accident called them and they immediately erased the bid. Any items I have bought have been just as described. Wonderful service!
This was a great experience, I really enjoy the online bidding system available. The ability to bid on auction items from the comfort of home is a bonus.
I am happy with proxibid. I really like that I can put a max bid in and go on with my work and it takes care of itself.
Proxibid has created a very good platform. The bidding process has been good and when my ISP is working like it should, bidding is quick.
I would ask Proxibid to encourage the auction houses to not scrimp on pictures or item descriptions.
One lay out change I'd like to see is in the My Proxibid page. Under the Watching page, I'd prefer the auctions be listed by ending date rather than beginning date.
Well pleased with proxibid, easy to use and fast replies, well deserved for a top notch rating. Plan on using it again very soon like tomorrow.
Easy way to shop at an auction, knowing what bids you got and then going at your convenient time to pick up your items rather than having to spend all day just for the one or two items you wanted.
Have had excellent service from Proxibid. There Customer Service Dpt is prompt and courteous.Do not have a problem with them and their on line bidding is excellent and allows you to bid. In bidding, you win some and you lose some. Have had no problems and have spoken to several of the Auction Houses to thank them or have a question on shipping.
The only online bidding site I use is PROXIBID. I participate in several auctions every month, and I will only bid in those auctions using PROXIBID. I know that if PROXIBID is conducting the auction it will be fair, and the rates will be reasonable. PROXIBID is the best!
