Bidder Reviews for Kaminski Auctions (572)

No problems. Would buy from again.

I bought a Henkel Harris bed and a parian bust during my first time participating in an auction at Kaminski Auctions. I called to give them the name of the gentleman who would be picking up these items for me and a general idea of when he would be showing up. The young man I spoke to was very helpful and courteous. The experience was a positive one from start to finish, and I look forward to participating in their future auctions!

My items had undisclosed damage-will not likely purchase from this auction house again.

Referred to the item as "good condition" but did not mention an obvious impact chip. They also didn't mention that the top of the glass vase had been shaved down and restored. I expect more from them and have generally been pleased with my purchases in the past. I can't entirely fault them since I unboxed the item more than months after purchasing so I don't know if they would have accommodated me or not if I was more timely.

they sell copy right of Chinese porcelain

5 ***** all the way!

Didnt have an opportunity to pay my lots. Everytime i tried to pay my lots they were returned to my bank account with an extra charge, also, the invoice was changed and 50 €were added. After trying to pay four times and my price increase by 200 €I decided not to pay for my lot due to the price increase from air

Despite taking too them never received complete crooks beware

Very professional and people are very nice. Only complaint is could be a bit more descriptive of damage. Photo showed crack in glass shade. Didn’t look really bad until lamp was lit up. They did not have an illuminated photo with the damage showing. Instead of just a crack it is a hole filled with putty. Partly my fault for not asking more questions.

Thank you for another great item at a great price.

I havent had a $100 delivery fee in twenty years. Thank you Frank

Stubborn and arrogant; real trouble makers. I made prior purchases from them (and many other auctions) and paid for them. They then sold me what turned out to be a fake. When i told them this, they did not contest that it was not genuine. The item was guaranteed authentic. i did not want to pay for a fake. At my request four experts sent emails to them stating it was a fake. However the auction insisted on letters instead of emails, or instead wanted a payment of $275 as a "return fee". The experts were in Europe and I was unwilling to bother them further. I explained this to the auction but nevertheless they filed a non-payment dispute with Live Auctioneers which they refuse to remove. I refused to pay the $275 for their fake in order to get the dispute removed. in my opinion this is nothing less than blackmail. Beware of what you bid on with them.

I have been bidding and buying at Kaminski Auctions for many years and find Frank and his team to be more than helpful, and fair, and they have unique antiques and decorative items from the Northeast, California, and Palm Beach! Definitely a favorite of mine.

Complete professionals

Always a pleasure to buy something from a Kaminski auction. The process has always been seamless from beginning to end. Highly recommend!

Reliable auction house and great items

Description says crackled glaze. I thought it is Lang Yao hong and bit high price. But when I receive the item I see no crackle at all-means it is not a long yao hong piece and vary low value. Another Wu cai plate I bit and won. Bit when pickup they said could not find the item. Shipper charge me more for pickup and I do not get the item I really want.

Honest and accomodating.

Could not be happier with my purchase and my experience with Kaminski Auction. I will be back. Thank you.
