GovdealsReviews of govdeals.com

They have ZERO Customer Service. You can contact them with simple questions, you don't hear back. They are now allowing SCAMMERS to sell and don't care. They are NOT a Government ONLY website. If you are willing to pay the fee, you can probably list with them.

be aware and don't do biasness with this company .. there will not going to get any help at all and basically they help scammer not the customer

Look at seller and if you see Valek stay away. She is snake in the grass and will lie steal cheat just to make a sale and then screw tou over and then block and ignore you after selling you a car that had perfect written all over site and the whole time they knew engine blown and will do nothing about it.

This is very frustrating with the seller and Govdeals. 31 July, we outbid others for an asset. It didn't meet the reserve amount. GovDeals sent me an email offer for the asset. We had till 2 Aug at 7pm to accept the offer. We tried to accept the offer on the Govdeals site. However, no matter how many times we accepted to offer, it didn’t accept my input. We notified Govdeals, the auction seller and customer service. On 3 Aug, the seller relisted the asset. The seller is Seller 30990 – CPTFL from Houston, TX. 3 Aug, we notified Govdeals. They took our information. Stating they would call me back. They did not! 4 Aug, we called again. Govdeals took our information again. Stating they would notify the seller and call me back. Two days has passed, Govdeals has yet to call. The asset is still being resold. There is no customer service or customer satisfaction at Govdeals!

Lets face it some car dealers are the scourge of the earth, and they are all over Gov Deals. I have been doing business buying cars thru Gov Deals for years and for the most part they have been good mainly because it was mostly municipal agencies, now that they are allowing anyone to sell mainly dealers and wholesalers the market sucks, they will say whatever they have to in the description to sell the vehicle and they know since you have to prepay before getting it there's not a whole lot that you can do about it, the last couple vehicles I bought were like that its getting to the point I just want to deal with the municipalities on here. There's no rating system set up so you can't warn future buyers about these shady dealers, I have asked Gov Deals multiple times about this but it always falls on deaf ears, guess they are happy with the money they are making but don't care about their buyers, so basically the customer service sucks

Buyer beware! They will lie and deceive you about the vehicle's they are selling! Govdeals is just here for the fees nothing else! I guess when you're selling vehicles that need major repairs telling the truth would be detrimental to the selling price. The sellers sell by deception and Govdeals condone it for all they want is the fee. Save your money and go to a more reputable site!!

I attempted to purchase an item (35' trailer) from auction on Wednesday July 1, 2026. With 5 seconds left on auction seller pulled asset. Called auction house and told them if seller wanted a certain amount then he should have placed a reserve on the item. Auction house stated that seller reserves right to remove item until END OF AUCTION. Okay, fair enough, I had not paid so it was annoying but water off my back. The next day (Thursday July 2, 2026) seller reslisted same item. When asked by myself and someone else why it was relisted seller indicated they were concerned that they did not have the title and wanted to confirm before auction finished. This seemed like a poor excuse considering auction listing stated that they had a clean title in hand. I won the auction in the evening of July 2, 2026 and promptly paid for item. I then called seller July 3, 2026 and set up plans to get the trailer picked up July 8, 2026. I set up a transport and paid $1,300 nonrefundable cost to get the load handled. Then seller does not return my calls or messages July 6 or July 7. I call GovDeals customer support July 7 to be told that seller had marked the item as returned to service and cancelled the sale. When I inquired with customer support about how seller cancelled item after paid and confirmed pickup time customer support informed me that govdeals policy is to allow cancellation UNTIL PICKUP and that I would be refunded my auction payment. This does not account for the $1,300 I paid for the transportation. To make matters worse I found where the SAME SELLER had listed this item for sale on facebook marketplace AFTER AUCTION HAD CLOSED. Govdeals customer service is wholly unhelpful with issues and does not hold sellers accountable. This was a blatant scam that had significant financial cost to me.

The cars are the same price as used vehicles and they are broken, the vehicles that aren't broken are sold for like new cars. They were fleet cars bought with tax dollars or used in a business right off (tax dollars) Why is our government making more money off things paid for with our tax dollars? There are sheds on here costing twice as much as Amazon for a brand new one same exact shed. The items are priced like I'm buying from a store. The tax lien are fraudulent too. They redeem the properties before the paper work is finalized and you lose all of your money. They said they would reimburse me for the scam and never have. And when I contact them again they say I have to work it out with the seller This is not government run. It's run by criminals and scammers and pieces of shit who are out to get more of our money. Go to the store. Anything with the word government is bad. Government are a mob full of POS goons. You think you will win a truck but 25 mins left on the auction and they put a reserve not met to make you pay more The entire govdeals.com is a fleece market where they fleece you for whatever they can get from ppl trusting their advertising
