Poor communication and shipment planning
After numerous attempts to arrange signing for items several weeks, I received the appraisal and no item, I filed with my credit card company to receive refund. Poor communication. And a long delay in shipping

We shipped her item promptly but she never was at the address to receive the package, FEDEX finally held the package for a week at the local FEDEX office but she never picked the package up. We notified her by email and phone calls but never received a reply. Her last communication with us was March 19th 2021. We are still holding her item and we can re-ship it to her anytime if she wants to arrange that.

I was very worried that the rolex was not going to be worth it-I was wrong
Won a Rolex and it looked like I got a great deal from the appraisal posted with the item. But I was worried that it would not be either a real Rolex or something was wrong. So after I got the Rolex I took it to a Rolex jewelry company and they gave even a higher appraisal then what David posted!!! (David is the contact at auctionbarn) The watch is indeed a genuine Rolex and everything in the posted description was verified to be 100 % accurate. I contacted David on a few issues (nothing big). Not only did he help me with how to use a Rolex and wind it but also because he knew the importance of this, he gave me an additional item. You know what I did after I had such a positive experience with AuctionBarn and David? I bought ANOTHER Rolex! I know now that this is the real deal. I know in fact he is honest. I know my bid was indeed much lower than actual value. David will have me as a buyer for life. David... Thank you! Fred

Item is exactly as described.
The couple of items that I've acquired through Auction Barn are very nice.

Ring was not same as advertised. A 3D printed copy
The ring I bought was not the one in the appraisal. It took over along to receive the ring. They claimed it had a couple of diamonds that needed to be replaced. In reality the ring received was a 3D printed copy of much lower quality (80 % cheaper). I paid over $14k for the ring. The ring stone was different a big 15 CT Ruby. Once contacted they demanded an appraisal to refund the money, sent the appraisal and ring. Still two weeks later no refund and no contact. Keep promising a refund and nothing happens. I have contacted LiveAuctioneers to remove this seller form their auction site.

is incorrect about several things in his review, 1) The ring that he received was the same one photographed and posted online, we explained that the prongs had to be strengthened and that was the only difference, we had to change the prongs that held the ruby in place. This was a very large Ruby and that change was deemed necessary by the independent gemologist that certifies each piece before delivery. We always require a gemologist appraisal in order to authorize a return that shows a difference in the specifications piece between the one received and the description online. His appraisal did not show any difference, but as a courtesy we agreed to accept the return. The owner agreed to accept the return if it was done promptly, and we send a prepaid FEDEX return label but he delayed the return for an additional week. We finally received the return and were able to return it to the consignor and process the refund, but we needed Mr Estrada's bank information in order to send the refund, we were just given that and we will be sending the refund this week.

Requesting a refund, thx.
Hi, I’ve requested a simple tracking number to track the purchase over 3 times. After being told that I will have one soon it has been over 3 weeks and I still do not know the status of the item. I am respectfully requesting a full refund. I will think twice before doing business with this company again. Thank you and stay safe!

It took about a month to receive my item.
It took it seems like forever to get my item. They get the item to me eventually, but I was beginning to think this was a scam.

Sorry about the delay, we are striving to deliver more quickly, watches need to be checked and double-checked before shipping.

The pictures make the object look larger than it is. They answer all questions; after a while.
Good people to work with. Could use more jewelry pictures on "real" people to get a true idea of the size. They are responsive to questions, one jewelry item did come without an appraisal, but it is not a big deal as the price is not over my insurance deductible. I will continue trusting in and using the auction to find items I really want, and it is fun!

They do not ship or communicate
They state 5-10 business days shipping. I paid within one hour of receiving invoice. This is day 22 and 16 days shipping. I was told it would ship before business day 10, then before the weekend, then before Tuesday, then Wednesday, which is today. Any item they have is easy to find on this site elsewhere, don’t risk it, once you pay they do not care. Not even enough to answer an email unless you pester them. I have bought 1000s of items on here and other sites. By far the worst auction house I have dealt with. Buyer beware

This buyer refused to read our messages about the ten day shipping policy and finally the day we were ready to ship to him he filed a claim online, so after listening to his profanity and insults for days by phone and by email, and him having asked to cancel the sale and refund his money, we happily complied.

Awful
Incredibly slow shipping & poor communication-I saw my item come up in subsequent auctions and was so concerned the sale was fraudulent. I finally received the item and it seemed off; I verified today that they sent an item that is lower quality than what was pictured, described, and appraised. I chose to purchase this for my wedding instead of a nice dress and it’s the wrong shape and a totally different color. We’ll see if they do the right thing; this is unacceptable and not a battle I’m looking forward to fighting while planning a wedding.

Lack of professionalism and flexibility you promise and do not fulfill your promises and are not bound by your laws

Takes awhile to receive your items
Overall Auctionbarn is good but they are slow to get items shipped. So if your in a rush don’t be surprised. The product is good but not exceptional. They were great with retracting a bit I made by mistake

Sorry your shipment went out late, during the COVID loc kdown in Los Angeles we sometimes have difficulty connecting with suppliers and consignors in a timely matter, and tthat can be the cause of unreasonable delays in preparing items and certifying them for shipment. I'm happy to report that your items have been shipped and wish you a happy holiday!

Poor communication/product not received for over a month
Purchased a watch from AB. Payment process went fine with immediate payment. Became concerned after item wasn’t being shipped, 2-3 weeks post auction. Contacted AB three times and finally went thru Liveauction for help. Got a response from AB and told me item would take longer. It ended up being over a month (that was post payment, not upon auction date). Was not comfortable with using the auction site. I would urge caution with purchases here.

Sorry your shipment went out late, during the COVID lockdown in Los Angeles we sometimes have difficulty connecting with suppliers and consignors in a timely matter, and that can be the cause of unreasonable delays in preparing items and certifying them for shipment. Watches need to be carefully checked by an expert geologist before shipment also. I'm pleased that your item was received in excellent condition and wish you a happy holiday!

Fifty fifty on AuctionBarnEstate
My transaction ended well but it was very tense and unsure until I actually received Rolex. Payment options are plus 10 % tax to use credit card. Zelle and check is always scary. AuctionBarn doesn’t use actual photos at least for Rolex’s. They use stock photos and item numbers over and over. I think that is deceptive practices. Dave did answer the phone mid day only and usually emailed back within 1-2 days but it just make you sacred when you send someone basically thousands of dollars in cash. Not sure if I would buy again. Beware and have patients if you do.
AuctionBarn.estate IncNov 24, 2020
Sales tax is only added for packages shipped to buyers in California, and since is in Arizona like all others he paid no sales tax. That has nothing to do with the use of a credit card. We do use actual photos of the watches we sell but many times the auctions are repeated over an over until a sale is completed. Identical models of watches when in mint condition look exactly the same. We answer the phone after 10am Pacific time and most buyers are on east coast time.

Purchased 4 items and only received 2 as of today. 11/2/2020 The auction closed over a month ago. B
Still waiting for items. Have contacted Dave and spoke even with him regarding my Invoice. He said the orders may come separately. I have received 2 of four and haven't heard from him since. Why?????

All of her orders were sent within a couple days of feedback being left, sorry for the delays

They haven't shipped 2 products a month after payment.
Be careful when purchasing anything from AuctionBarn. I won BIDS on 2 products in early September, paid invoice 3rd week Sept and still no product after contacting them repeatedly. Wondering if I'll ever get my purchases.
