Bidder Reviews for B.S. Slosberg, Inc. Auctioneers (365)

They are nice

The people are very nice and responsive to questions, but I don't want to arrange shipping from an outside party.

Great service

Professional and great experience, I highly recommend them

I recently won a lot of items. I bid on the lot because I wanted items in the photo of the lot and that were listed in the description of the lot. I was excited to win the lot. Contacted auction house and Philly mailroom to ship items to me. Thought everything was good until I received the box from Philly mailroom. After opening the box it had four items in it and missing the other pictures and binder of items that I bid on the lot for. I can not say how disappointed I was after paying over $50 for the shipping of the items. I immediately contacted Philly mailroom and was told they shipped all the items that were given to them by B. S. Slosberg Auctions. They told me they would contact Slosberg the next day then call me, which they did. I was told that this was all the items they had for this lot and there were no more items. Again very disappointed in winning an auction only to find out that you paid for items, paid buyer’s premium, and shipping to get nothing that you wanted!!! After contacting Philly mailroom they agreed with me and immediately sent me a check for the lot which was $30. I still paid the buyers premium and shipping, contacted Slosberg again and they agreed to refund the buyers premium now only out the $50 that I paid for the shipping and my own time spent figuring this all out!! I just can not believe that Slosberg can auction items that they do not have in the photo and also in the description of the lot and not care about the bidder!!! I am so disappointed that I am out my money for the shipping of items I do not want, my time dealing with this mess, and most importantly not getting the items that I won!!! I will never trust Slosberg again!!! BEWARE!!

This was a real auction find. Will bid again.

All went well with the auction and sale. There were no glitches and item photos and description were spot on. I used Philadelphia Mailroom for packing & shipping. I was surprised at the packing cost, around $50 for my item, until I received it. It was a fragile item and was so heavily wrapped in bubble wrap and packed with styrofoam peanuts I was very impressed. It arrived undamaged and ready for me to rewrap as a gift. I had also won a very similar item at a different auction and used that auction house's recommended shipper. The item I received from the other auction company shipper was 1/2 the price for packing but was not as well wrapped and arrived with 2 pieces broken off of it. Thank you to Philadephia Mailroom for knowing how to pack delicate items to keep them safe from the wreckless handling that most shippers provide.

The auction house itself is fine, it's their recommended shipper, Philadelphia Mailroom, that is the problem. Incredibly poor packaging, damaged items, and promised refunds that never materialized. If you're local, go for it, but if you're not then buy at your own risk.

Very accurate, precise, professional and nice people there! I am completely glad about this experience. I recommand this company.

Overall very good experience with this auction house and shipping company.

Very decent auctioneer, wide variety auction item, one of the best auctioneer

I have purchased from several Slosberg Auction sales. The quality is excellent with items as described. They are responsive to any questions as well. My only concern is that shipping, which has gotten expensive everywhere, just seems to be more costly in Philadelphia. Reminder to remember shipping costs when placing bids.

Always a good experience with Barry Slosberg Auction Company

I was very happy with my dealings with B. S. Slosberg. When I received my items, one of them was broken and when i contacted them, they handled it efficiently and completely to my satisfaction. Their shipper was excellent to work with and I received my items in a timely fashion. A great auction house to deal with. THANK YOU!

Pickup is great, just call ahead and let them know when you are coming. My merchandise, the jewelry, was more more beautiful than expected. Thank you!

I had forgotten about posting feedback for this God awful experience. The sale was on Sept. 21, 2021, and the lot number was 3249. It consisted of a single sheet of 18th c paper of legal size. Approx 8 inches x 14 inches. The survey was unfolded for picture taking but could have easily been folded back to its approx. size of 3 x 7 inches. NOW here's the clincher. The shipping agent that the auction hall praises and recommends wanted to charge me $36.22 to ship the item out from Pa to NY.... I paid $12.00 for the item which included buyers premium. Needless to say I filed a grievance with Live A, and on the 29th of Sept received an email from the auction hall that the problem I had was with the shipper whom I might add was one they they recommended at the time. Also on the 29th I received an email at 3:43 pm from the Auction hall shipper that they would reduce the price to 19.42. At this point I cut my loss and finished the sale, and don't buy from the auction hall anymore.

Absolutely ridiculous shipping costs-ask for estimate before bidding, it will probably change your mind.

No

The pieces I purchased in their recent auction were very accurately described. Philadelphia Mailroom does a good job packing and shipping. The only issue, not their fault, is that ground shipping has become much more expensive. Both the auction firm and their recommended shipper earn all five stars. Thank you.

This auction house offers terrific items at a great price. I'll most probably do business here again.

The item I purchased was accurately described. Recommend using Philadelphia Mail Room for shipping. Ended up shipping USPS Priority Mail for the single item purchased which was more cost effective. Thank you.

I have one multiple auctions over the last couple of years with the B S Slosberg auctioneers. I am always pleased with my auction wins. Highly recommend!

Top Notch!

Bought some items online and picked them up at the Auction House. The people at the Auction House were great! They helped me pack and parking was available close by on the street. I highly recommend this company.

Nice item.

easy to pick-up, fast process

Items were as expected, since we were allowed in to preview. Thanks
