Nothing short of Exceptional
Incredible poor response
On thé few contested lots I purchased, which were incorrect and borderline fraudulent, I was refunded my bid and a token credit for my trouble and returning the item. Overall some interesting lots, but it is most definitely buyer beware.
The real issue is horrible communication from the sellers, and catiwiki “experts

Dubious
Buyer watch out
Unfair
People are in quarantine and lots are not going be shipped. Despite this critical situation, Catawiki is still asking payments to be done as soon as possible with no guarantee the package will be delivered within the pre-established delivery times.
In short, the platform is asking immediate payments for a service that cannot be guaranteed. The risk is to pay immediately and wait months for the packages to be delivered. In my personal experience, I have been waiting 2 months for a lot that still has to be shipped. I asked for a full or partial refund but, I have been told to stay still and wait because nothing can be done.
Rather than offering other solutions like competitors are doing, such as paying part of the lot in order to get the ownership and, when it can be shipped, pay the rest. They force you to pay in full, threatening to block your account and make you pay fees and penalties over the lots you have not paid.
One word can describe all this: unfair.

This is so wrong
In what I have seen, what I have read and now based upon the reviews I shall say au revoir, goodbye, farewell to this online auction site and be thankful I haven’t purchased anything.
If it looks great, sounds great, is authenticated and valued as being genuine yet left to you to be the final ‘expert’ in respect of the items authenticity colour, clarity, carat and therefore the value then run while you still have your money in your bank 🙈
BUYER BEWARE should most definitely be advertised!!!
