Too risky to waste money
The first picture should be the actual item not something similar. I have been bit too many times and will no longer risk my money for what possibly could be trash.

I have bought multiple items and it is hit or miss. You never know what you are getting no matter what the description says. I have bought a couple items that state as is and were brand new. I have also bought items as is and good condition and it was absolute trash. They get you because they only take a pic of the box opened not really showing you the product then put like 5 of the stock photos tricking people. This in itself is a scam. I recently bought a surface cleaner for a pressure washer and it was completely busted apart with zero chance of being fixed. I paid to throw something away for them. I would say my wins are more than my losses but I would just make sure you are looking at available pics and make sure you read the ad completely. If you buy as is just expect it to be broken or something missing. I wouldn't bid to high on those products but you could get something brand new like I have. It is very hit or miss. They definitely scam you with not posting good pics or telling you, but again I have gotten some expensive things for my business that were new and saved me well over $1000. So it can be good just make sure you pay attention and don't bid high on as is items unless it states what is wrong or has a good pic. They don't offer refunds. These are some of my items so I am definitely winning. Just have to go in it as it is what it is. As is Surface cleaner- Trash completely busted apart As is Paint sprayer- Trash, used never cleaned not worth fixing As is Paint sprayer - Brand new works perfect Good Condition Ladder Leveler- Brand New perfect As is Stainless paint sprayer hoses - New perfect As is Pressure washer 24' extension pole set- brand new

The listing was “good condition “ it was a 22” suitcase”. When I picked it up it had one wheel missing and one wheel broken. The mgr stated “that’s hardware and allowable”. They would not refund the product. When a product is not functional, is more more than missing hardware. Bidfta has declined significantly. If you’re bidding, on bid on like new/new condition only.

If it's not marked as new/like new you have no means to get a refund. If you got a blender, you might get 2 blades and a worn out 9 volt battery, your bad luck. Their new policy of allowing customers to preview items, gives others a chance to open the packages and go through the contents. Maybe this is why 90% of the things I have bought recently have things missing.

Definitely was tricked!!!! WHAT THEY ADVERTISE IS NOT WHAT YOU GET. I WON A PALLET THAT WAS NOTHING LIKE THE ADVERTISED PALLET. THERE WAS NOTHING BUT TRASH ON IT. LITERALLY ALL TRASH!!!!! PLEASE BEWARE WHEN BIDDING!!!! THEY ARE NOT HONEST. I ASKED FOR A REFUND FOR MOVING THEIR TRASH AND TOLD ME UNFORTUNATELY, THERE ARE NO RETURNS. EVERYONE BE WISE WHEN BIDDING ON PALLETS, ITS NOT WHAT YOU THINK IT IS. THIS WAS SPRINGDALE LOCATION. (I have picture that I can upload if I’m able too) NEVER AGAIN. WHAT A JOKE!!!

I worked for bidfta, and I was terminated for job abandoning after informing the manager that I had unmitigated circumstances that kept me from coming to work. She was very biased in how she treated her people (Latinos) compared to employees that were not. Daily i went above and beyond my title and worked relentlessly to change the perception of the company.

There are 4 deceptive practices in their business model. I have experienced them all, and will list them all: 1) Condition: They will list something as "New" and then it has a different box and opened, and in some cases slightly damaged. Not affecting the functionality, but DEFINITELY NOT NEW. This ties into the second issue. 2) Pricing: They will list an item for the MSRP. All of the merchandise listed are Amazon returns. Let's say 4 sellers on Amazon has a listing for $32 and one has it for $50. They will claim the MSRP is $50. 3) Bidding: Let's assume the MSRP is actually correct. The bidding fees are structured so that even if you get something 50% off MSRP. When you attach their fees and sales tax, in my case it is 6,75%. That adds up to 31.75% of the total price. So, the Amazon return you purchased at 50% off is actually now 82% the cost of something brand new, with no warranty. In reality, your 50% savings turned into 18% savings. 4) The multipliers on items. If you're new to the site, they will place multipliers on items you bid on. So you can only intend to be bidding a few dollars. With the multipliers, that can become hundreds. You are bidding on multiple lots, and don't realize it. This is intentional. This auction is a glorified garage sale. They do not give refunds, even if you show the item doesn't function. Instead they give you "credits". Once your money is in their "hand" it never returns. Customer service is horrible! This company is predatory. Stay away!!

Do not buy from this place, they list items as new/like new, and have them in a new only site and they won't stand behind it when it is broke
