Bad Faith Auction
Where do I start? Are zero stars a possibility?
Should have read the reviews before wasting my time. They are lousy but a real reflection of Proxibid. What a scam!!! Highest bid at end of the auction time listed on the Proxibid website does not necessarily win.
W-T-F?!!! They decide to extend the auction until they get the bids they want.
Also, very interesting, couldnt but help notice but none of the individuals bidding early on during the auction win. Almost seems as phantom bidders bid early on during the auction to drive up the price.
User's recommendation: Stay away

Bad Faith Auction
What can I say? I should have read the reviews before wasting my time with Proxibid.
The reviews are lousy. They are also accurate. Being the highest bidder at the end of auction time listed on their own website does not necessarily mean you win. W-T-F?!!!
Bidding is allowed to continue beyond the end time to drive up the price.
Interestingly, none of the individuals bidding early during the auction seem to win. It's almost like there are phantom bidders bidding to drive up the price.
- Scam
Preferred solution: Apology
User's recommendation: Stay away

Don't trust these criminals
Please save your time and money and don't even enter the site. It's all set up so they bid against you if they don't think they're getting enough for an item.
They'll even cancel an item if they weren't able to get in and bid against you. I have plenty of documentation for all of this. Then I called them to see why the auction was on two platforms. A live auction, and an estate auction that had an end time on it all week.
it didn't once say anything about it being a live auction. I had an alarm set to let me know when the auction was ending, so I could make sure to get my bids in at the end. All of a sudden it's a live auction, and they got upset with me after I called them out for being unethical. Before he hung up on me, he said what's your name?
I told him, then he says we don't need you on our platform, and declined my request to bid in the auction after I had already bid and won a couple things. I wish I had read the reviews before I ever got involved with this company.
It has to be illegal what they're doing. If not they got a lobbyist or something to allow them to be dishonest.
- Outbid you
- Cancel your won auctions
- Charge way too much for processing
Preferred solution: They need to be held accountable for scamming everyone. The $500 I bid on a Rolex was canceled by them after I had won it. Along with a few other items I won that were cancelled. I feel like I'm due the items I bid on and won.
User's recommendation: Please don't fall for the scam.

Never received my rifle that I paid for!!
April 8th, 2023 won my auction, contacted my FFL and he emailed and left a voicemail providing all the proper information. On the 10th Proxibid.com charged my credit card.
Over 2 weeks have gone by and nothing but excuses and the run around from Johnnys Estate Auction Service. They sold 250 plus guns that day and several of us according to Vicki at Johnnys havent received their purchases. She promised to call me back NOT!! The 2nd day in a row Ive been blown off.
Ive emailed Proxibid.com 3 times and each time they say that they cant do anything but I should call the shipper!! BOTH ARE SCAMMERS!!
- Scam
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: RUN!!! Go to GunBroker.com

False advertising
I bid on a piece of equipment Tuesday 10/3 online from Alex Lyon and son auctioneer in Atkinson NH. I got an email from proxiebid yesterday with the piece of equipment on the cover page.
I went to the catalog this morning and the tractor wasnt there.
I emailed the auctioneer and was told the co-signer didnt bring it. Ive worked for auction companies and once a piece is advertised it has to be sold
Won a bid
The auction houses saying that thats the bid I did not win when it clearly states that is the bid I want they sent me a invoice for some skid steer tree ball. I have no idea what even that is.
Preferred solution: The item it says, I want the screen or shaker vibrate,

Customer service
Proxibid's lack of customer service is the worst I've experienced in many years. Marilyn, an alleged customer service representative speaks very poor English, has a negative attitude, doesn't want to help you, and when I asked to speak with her supervisor she told me there was no one to transfer me to and then hung up the call.
Proxibid also requires an active credit card in order to bid, but charges that card without notifying you of exact charges, shipping fees in some cases have been charged without my permission.
Proxibid needs to improve their customer service and contact their auction winners before charging their credit cards.
User's recommendation: Watch out for incorrect invoices and bogus fees. Check your credit card after each auction win.

Can't get into auction
Cheryl heard has effectively blocked me. Despite repeated requests to have access to bid she systematically has disallowed me from bidding.
well, it was more a loss for you than for me. I could have bought more items.
Maybe she was giving someone to have a better chance to will. thanks to her I spent less than 1% than I planned

Tax exemption
No complaint. Just needed to get paperwork to the right location. Would like a phone number easier to contact proxibid for future reference.
