Nice items and good service, but no in-house shipping.
All items were as described and pictured and invoicing and transfer to their third-party shipper was fast. I have had some bad experiences with overpriced third-party shippers, but Elliot at Safe Ship NKY got my items shipped quickly at a reasonable price.

Can't think of anything pertinent...
This was my first auction, and Justin could not have been more helpful in explaining the bidding process. On the day of the auction I was lucky enough to win the bid, and from there on in, everything was pretty much seamless. I will be back. Thank you.

Stunning porcelain depicting Queen Marie Antoinette of France and Navarre & 2 Copper Candelabras!
We had a fantastic experience with Main Auction Galleries! The communication was excellent, and the company that Main Auction Galleries recommended for shipping packaged the items exceptionally well, ensuring that it arrived in perfect condition. The company used for shipping was **********! Our acquisition was a French porcelain plaque depicting Queen Marie Antoinette of France and Navarre and two copper candelabras. Overall, we highly recommend Main Auction Galleries and Total Pack N Ship for their exceptional service. It was truly a pleasure doing business with them, and we look forward to the opportunity to work with them again in the future. 👑 💐

Truly one of my FAVORITE auction houses
It's almost a challenge to write a review for Main Auction Galleries because they do everything so well. Their auctions consistently feature well-curated and unique items for every price point. Payment is easy and I've never had a problem with the shippers on their list. Most importantly, their staff is knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and a pleasure to work with. I couldn't be happier with my winnings.

Pictures not good, shipping options are terrible, poor communication.
They offered two shippers, neither was good, but Safe Ship NKY was terrible. Paid over $30 for shipping coins that I pay other auction houses $7.95 at most. Pictures weren't good, communication terrible. Will not buy from this auction again.

Professionalism
It's hard for me to trust. I also need to work on being patient. Due to a series of events I decided to check up on a very large painting that I won. What I found was a hard working, on the ball, 5th generation auction house. Along with the same work ethic shipper called Safe Ship. My with went to see them in Cincinnati. We live in south Florida. We can tell you by 1st hand experience that both places have one intention in mind. You the client. We can honestly say they are some of the best and honest people to work with. It's because they care about everything in detail. Communication was excellent along with the quality items. Safe Ship went far beyond a regular shipper and if anyone chooses them, you definitely made the right decision. I read some negative reviews. They are absolutely incorrect. I think they posted the review in the wrong place. So keep that in mind when researching. Both the auction house and Safe Ship are very conscience. Willing to make every effort to satisfy their client. It's great to see and walk away knowing how we'll you were taken care of. Thank you to both establishments. Captain Gregory

Disappointed in the condition of the item …
… but it may have been my fault in not reading the description carefully enough. The print itself is perfect. However, it appeared to be framed, and I thought the description said the frame wasn't perfect, I had no idea that I not only had no glass, but had a small ragged piece left in the corner. And, because there was no glass, the print was very loose in the frame. I will need to get this reframed before I can hang it. Kudos to the shipper who did a wonderful job protecting it though. Words of wisdom to impart — read that description carefully!

I cannot express how positive my interactions have been with Main Auction Galleries. They are polite and extremely professional in their dealings. The item I purchased was exactly as the pictures that were posted. The bowl was even better than I ever could have expected. They saw to it that my item was extremely well packed and arrived safely. I cannot give enough positive feedback about Main Auction Galleries, their service and their attention to their customer's questions or needs. I would bid with Main Auction Galleries anytime with the security of knowing that they are a professional organization.
