I have spent over $15,000.00 on their auctions over the last year. Recently my ID was stolen so I had to have new credit cards issued. I called each auction area to manually pay for the remaining items I had won. Because I could not update my credit card on their website until I received a new one they banned me from bidding on anything from their auctions. . I called to have them correct this and it has been a few days and no one will call me back or let me know whats going on. My advise, if you want to bid online DONT USE Catbirds, finds a better site which I will be doing

I was genuinely excited to discover CT Bids after a friend recommended it—especially as a newly single mom who just relocated to LA. I won a beautiful dining table, paid my invoice in full, and even arranged and paid for my own transport. My account shows no outstanding balance. However, when I tried to bid again weeks later, I was unexpectedly told I was “suspended from this location.” I emailed and messaged customer service with no response. When I finally got someone on the phone, I was told there’s a $15 unpaid invoice from my only transaction—yet no such invoice has ever been visible in my account, nor was I notified. I’m more than willing to pay a balance if it’s legitimately owed—but I need a way to see and settle it. Until then, I’m stuck, and the lack of communication has been frustrating. I hope they improve their systems and responsiveness, because the platform itself has so much potential.

BEWARE, It cost me $53.65 for a USPS priority medium flat rate box with NO insurance. The commercial cost for shipping this is $16.65 so they charged me $37 for handeling!

CT BIDS Delaware is a scam. I picked up my items and they were placed in bags with my name on them They had me sign a paper that I got everything before I started loading, When I got home, multiple items were not in the bags. Other franchises have someone on hand to help .I always offer a tip. The furniture obviously had to be taken apart to fit out the doors. Problems with mice was evident. I read shipping complaints but pick up is no picnic.

On top of the item itself. The shipping and handling is OUTRAGEOUS. They pick the most expensive shipping and over charge you on it. And the handling fee to “remove” the item is so stupidly expensive it’s not worth using

Always a great experience with CTBIDS Chesapeake VA. Todd & his staff go above & beyond. Very organized and orderly, has items ready when you arrive. Very helpful, the only auction company I know of that even helps to carry your items to your car! Very impressed and highly recommend!

I have been enjoying bidding on items on CTBids for over a year. Sometimes I win; sometimes I lose; sometimes the price is a bargain; sometimes I decide it’s good enough to keep bidding; sometimes it goes higher than I want to pay. It’s always fun and the process is easy. Lots of fun and interesting items for sale. It’s a win-win.

Complete scam!!! Do Not Bid on shipped items! I won two small crystal bowls. They wanted to charge 95.00 shipping from Texas to California. (I had a 7 lb box from Germany to California USA, delivered to me Priority (in 2 days) for less than 50.00). They add on 30 dollars Fee, 10.00 to just deliver it to UPS, and the shipping costs inflated and inflated packing costs.
