I collect antiquarian books but also dabble in things that interest me
I know a lot about buying antiques and have purchased from Auctions live and online and attend lots of estate sales. Was a purchaser from Ebay until that site became a haven for scam artists.
Antiques and old books
These guys are a scam with false prices on booking a trip then they are allowed to Jack up the total with a pile of bullchit charges. I'm never using these azzholes again. SCAM!
Tip for consumers:
Ya someone needs to tell these scammers to show the pricing upfront.
Products used:
Package delivery.
I've purchased a few things from lululemon over the years and have found that within the past year or so, quality is suspect. I like the fact they have different types of colours that are different from anyone else's. So I bought 4 shirts and each cost me over 60.00. Not the problem, but if you wear them more than once and wash it, threads start looking like a used shirt that's been worn for years. I expect more or price reduction to understand that they are cheaply made and I can shop at a store who offers quality and equally expensive prices. Not one or the other. Terrible quality and I will rethink shopping for anything else.
I ordered from the LampPlus Canada website and found that they were very organised and were true to their word on delivery. My Hanging and sconce for the exterior of my house came in well packed and delivery was as promised. I would order again from these guys.

I was bidding here on some items from a movie set, they were excellent items that showed the prices paid for and the Antique stores in the US that sold the items.
My first issue was finding the names of these furniture makers, second, I found the site a bit rigged as well. I was bidding on several items, but gave some up and focused on one item I really wanted. But, for every one of my bids, one was following right behind it. Finally, after my ceiling was met and my last bid in the 1000's, suddenly no more action on the item. So did the "other bidder" have a higher ceiling or was it an actual person? So who knows, but, I haven't bid at this site again.
I find Indeed to be easy to navigate around and love all the job updates once your notifications are set up.
Just an FYI, I paid for those items and it was my credit card company who told me to get them because I paid for them.
On another note, I have looked into your business and you are not registered with Auctioneers of Canada and Ontario, you are not listed under the Better Business Bureau, are you legally allowed to hold auctions and do you have a legal right to sell?
So just an update, I spoke to the Fraud Dept of MasterCard and as expected, Pauline was lying about a refund as Mastercard has NOT received a refund. Lie about what you are selling and come onto a national platform and lie.
So Pauline you are telling me that in 3 items you had for sale where you consistently put "Framed by Carvers and Gilders" all 3 with no deviations, that I should NOT believe you? I buy and could be watching up to 5 online auctions at the same time, and depending on the price of the items, I will decide what to bid on and what NOT to bid on. Before you put a reputable companies work as your headline, maybe it's better for you to list items correctly. I sent an email to Carvers and Gilders requesting the information and due to the high volume of emails, they finally did answer me. We will see by Friday if in fact you are telling the truth about my refund. Instead of saying this to me at the time you refused me to pick up the items you had my money for, you could have avoided having me go to the OPP Fraud dept and send them all this info. So if I am to call off the OPP as this is considered theft, you have my email and can send me the confirmation that you did in fact refund all my money as you stated on your reply.
So let me get this straight, if someone puts a sticker on say a decorative piece, you're telling me you will use this in your listing as say a Tiffany Antique, knowing full well it's plastic and not glass and not an antique? But, stickers don't lie according to you? I tried to work with you to come to a resolution, but, instead needed to go to the Fraud department since you told me not to pick up my item after paying for it. Shame on this seller for not taking any responsibility for his wording. Come to the open house you said, ummm, so anyone from anywhere near the listing should only bid because you lie on your listings? Trust is no longer present and lost a buyer who spends a lot of money online.

I cant understand why anyone would purchase an item and then do the research. Typically you would research first, call or view the item. You have made statements that you clearly cannot not substantiate as you have never seen the items in question. It is also quite dishonest on your p[art for not informing the readers that you recieved a complete refund and after claiming the items were not as advertised you still wanted them.

I find Maxsold offers a variety of sales ranging from Antiques to Modern pieces. I had a dispute about a listing on books and they corrected it right away with there maxsold form. In 3-4 years of buying so much from this site, it has been very good.

I requested an uber, just for a one way trip. The cost of the uber was overpriced. I don't blame...
