I RECENTLY WON A BID ON BIDS.COM, AND JUST YESTERDAY I RECEIVED AN E-MAIL THAT THE ITEMS , WHICH COST ME $95.00AUS; WERE BEING SHIPPED FROM CHINA, I BELIEVED THIS BIDS.COM WAS FROM AMERICA, IF I WANTED CHINESE GOODS I WOULD PURCHASE THEM MYSELF AT QUARTER THE PRICE FROM TEMU NOT HAPPY, AND NEVER AGAIN

Never received my order. Tracking says delivered.

Be aware of the Fake gold. They will posted 9999/999 Fine or Pure Gold with the description Metal type: Gold Purity: Fine All this description was all wrong. I received the item nice and looked real. But I am a jewelry collector and I have gold acid testing. I did it and it dissolved right away. I did multiple times and it still dissolved. I messaged the customer service and asking for a full refund for my 3 winning auction. I am still waiting for a reply. I called multiple times and leave a message still no response after the first email responsed. I am so disappointed, Please be aware! and if you are trying to win something just be cautious.

I put a complaint that 1 ring and matching earrings were bent and broken and one of the stones was in pieces never heard from I will not bother with them again

I waited months for a jade ring that I paid for & it never arrived. Then I contacted your company & they sent me another one. It is so big that it won't even fit my husband's thumb. This is not acceptable. This was a gift for a friend of mine & now I have to buy her something else. You sent me a ring that would fit a large man. How does this help my situation. Very unhappy that I have been waiting months for this. I will no longer be ordering from your company & I will not remove my review. Bad way of doing business. Your customer service number doesn't answer the phone.There is other review saying the same things.Just to let you know that the jade ring broke. It is made of plastic.

I have been a happy customer for years, however, while watching the bids recently Ive noticed that when I win a bid, it just disappears snd doesnt turn up on my won page. Has anyone else had this happen. Its usually really nice items that I got for a good price. Not the right way to do business.

Purchased a necklace 6 days ago,paid immediately. Item has not been shipped as of day 7 and I have called customer service 3 days in a row,have sent several emails and not one response or phone call back to me as promised within 24 hours per their recording.

Someone mentioned Bidz.com & Bids.com, to that person who criticized the mentioner, they ARE the same company. Do a tiny search. My experience. I received 2 items I bid on many WEEKS ago. I'm SO elated I didn't bid higher, or bid on other items. Unfortunately, there's 1 item enroute. What I hold here, IS NOT what the seller described. I hold a ring that has a plastic center, supposed to be a Genuine Gem. Nope! A BUBBLE GUM MACHINE WIN, FROM YOUR LOCAL MARKET PLACE (you know, as you enter the grocery store your kiddo wants a quarter to gain a find from within the 1st ever slot machine in life!) The other microscopic pink stones? are so tiny if your face is not up on it, you can overlook them. What is supposed to be "REAL DIAMONDS" lol the green stones, or supposed to be green stones is in fact painted green. SO my question is WHAT DIAMONDS! The 2nd item is hideous. I actually thought this 2nd piece would be great to break down for other jewel pieces I'd create. But the photo onsite shows the stones within this piece are in fact larger than what I hold. The jewel bits on this piece look like the plastic pieces I use to decorate trim and seasonal artwork. The kind that kids make friendship bracelets from. This was supposed to be a brooch of a castle. Somewhat cute in the photo listing. Don't get me wrong the metal encasing the plastic beads, is so heavy I can't imagine anyone being able to wear it as is. Thereby the removal of the 'stones' was a great idea. To create different pieces off this 1 item, many times over, making the purchase and cost overall cheap. Sellers do NOT make it clear that their peddling 'toy' quality. This site states that all merch are QUALITY JEWELRY pieces. I don't understand how so many other reviewers are happy & posting positive comments about this site. When someone says, "What is sold here IS QUALITY merchandise" I expect to receive QUALITY = REAL STONES! REAL GOLD! REAL SILVER! Not TIN, metal, and PAINTED rings!! That is exactly what I received. I paid real $ & received lies. I could ham this site, and take these items to a well known jewelry appraiser. Then take the findings to the local authorities. Simply put, copy cat items, are in fact illegal here in the USA! All these items have come from China. Not saying all things from China are bad. I love the pottery, some art, foods/herbs, wisdom from the elders & authentic housewares (stuff my grandparents came home with when they traveled back 60 years ago - before PLASTICS became the replacement to QUALITY.) I am SO fed up bidding or buying items claiming to be one thing, and they turn out to be copycats, imposter items, or flat out lead filled plastic health risks. This site, thus far is a copy cat of Top Hatter. Selling crap on crackers, for real dollars. While the seller has my money, and I hold their crapware. I am a very disgruntled consumer. Whether it be the FTC, BBB, or the local authorities (Local PD, DA, & a Lawyer) I am on a mission to bring to light the falsities of this site. I also find it extremely odd, that ONLY wares are being sold from CHINA. Not Italy, USA, Germany, Portugal, etc. Only China! And not top notch quality sellers, mind you. With what I have been sent so far, I would rather play Russian Roulette and bid on palettes coming from various retailers, than waste another dollar here at this site (Bids dot com). People, if you're here reading this review, you're doing good. Doing your 'do diligence' into a possible BAD experience and waste of your hard earned income. *If you take your pen or pencil and spray paint it GOLD or SILVER THAT would be of more value & worth than any item you may (Or may not, some people never received their paid items. Lost $$ though!!) bid, win, and hopefully receive. May be the folks here on this site, if legit, are used to wearing fake items. I'm not. I do love a good deal, but wear the real deal. I feel like I bid on a Gucci & received a Coochie. Places like this make honorable retailers, selling real wares look bad. EDIT: 07/22/2024 I received the 3rd item a few days ago. A beautiful blue (I'm guessing crystals or Rhinestones) watch. Until I turned it over. The back has thin scratches all over it. Feeling really used here. I bid on NEW not used items. I've already reached out for a return for the 1st 2 items, I'm not shocked there's been crickets with this site. I'll be reaching out once again, to add this item. I wasted too much time, energy, and money on this site. Now I'm spending more in Warnings. EDIT 07/30: Received an em from the site. They won't release a refund until I remove this review. THAT is a form of EXTORTION! AND A FELONY! Thank you Bids.com. I couldn't post that email here, but the lawyer, police, and DA will be over the moon! THE REVIEW STAYS! I personally don't want ANY ONE2 follow in my footsteps into loss! This site stole from MANY, DON'T BE 1 OF THEM. Please. NO *
