Good until it’s not
Takes a long time to long saved items. Frequently have to log back in as it logs you out at random times. Important messages from won items get lost in the myriad of promotion emails from auctioneers. Internal shopping prices through LIVEauctioneers’s is insane. Use a local ups store that will pick up, pack and ship for you.

Never, ever use their in-house shipping
You may win an item thru their auction but you will wait an eternity to receive it if you use LiveAuctioneers’ in-house shipping. I learned the hard way. Always arrange your own shipping.
“New from follow searches” been broken for MONTHS now
Reported the issue in app a month or two ago, yet still no fix. The scroll-based loading gets stuck at random points and I have to kill the app and try again - maybe it’ll get further than the last session, maybe not! Rinse and repeat. Is like the worst mobile game of all time. Please, please, fix it..

Review of Live Auctioneers
I like their auctions for Modern and Contemporary Art. I like to see the various artists and see if anything fits my budget.
Too Many Fees!
The shipping fees are ridiculously high.
App Is Only Good If It Works
I came across this app and was looking forward to bidding. However, each time I register to bid I receive a message that my registration is declined because my account is suspended. I have talked to customer service several times and they can’t figure out what the problem is. I have never been able to bid through this site.

Shipping cost not posted
Deactivated Account
literally no way to figure out why account is deactivated or how to get it active again. I keep getting declined for auctions but i’ve read their FaQ a hundred times i haven’t done anything wrong there’s. i way to troubleshoot.
Fraud
Never received a purchased item. Seller has been difficult to get a response from. Contacted Live Auctioneers about the situation but their involvement is nothing other than sending stock statements. No actual help to resolve the issue. Reported the fraud to my credit card company.
The World is My Bazaar!!!!
This site has opened the world up to buying whatever it is that interests you from anywhere! I have gotten SO many beautiful antiques and collectibles that I will pass down to my children one day!
I love this site sometimes too much, and have had to delete it a couple times to remove the temptation😂

good stuff!
I love the auctions I just think the fees are over the roof, I know everyone’s gotta make something but holy cow!!!
Buyer Beware
The platform doesn’t seem to vet the “auction houses” very well and doesn’t follow up or hold the auctioneers accountable to any standard. I left a review for a fraudulent auction house (I very purposefully only stated facts not opinions in the review) and Live Auctioneers removed it after the auction house emailed saying “this review doesn’t do me [the auction house] or you [Live Auctioneers] any good”. There was no communication with me about the facts of the review. They prioritize money from fees over consumer protection.

First time
That was awesome. Thanks

The parent company, Auction technology group, is not my favorite.
Search Sucks
The search is terrible. I want to search for particular items that are near me. Like how you can on Facebook marketplace. But all you can do is search auctions near you and then you have to open each one and scroll all their items. And then when you search products the location filter is “USA”. That is ridiculous. This is basic UX. Also following an auction house is challenging. Like I’m on an auction for the auction house and can’t see a button anywhere to follow them.
Bad UX. Would be so easy to improve. Also add search to all auction pages for the love.

Y’all charge to much on fees and u have to arrange your own shipping
I was incorrect
Changing my 1* review to 5*.
My expectations for myself are high. Because of that, I have a tendency to expect high expectations of others without understanding what they have to deal with. Received my first auction item yesterday. Another is still in transit. Took longer than they originally estimated (2 weeks) which led me to believe some of the bad reviews. But I’m very satisfied!!
Communications with Akiba Galleries has been outstanding!! They called me on my personal cell explaining the complexity and cost of LiveAuctioneers Shipping.
Shipping could be streamlined to improve time. Otherwise I’m very pleased!!! Just won something in my 3rd auction. Love it!
