Overall, while Maxsold has a solid base of satisfied users, addressing operational shortcomings and enhancing customer support could improve their reputation further.

Great solution for downsizing, minimal work for sellers, opportunity for seller to make money in addition to cleaning out their space. An answer for individuals to move forward with their lives burden-free. Benefits: Customer satisfaction.

Many thanks to MaxSold for helping to manage what was an important stage in my life: downsizing from a lifetime of collecting artifacts from around the world. This was an unusual sale in many ways. The objects themselves were not the customary household goods. I was happy to see that the MaxSold marketing efforts reached the right people. It was a joy to meet the auction winners. They were truly interesting people- well traveled and excited to claim their new possessions. It made me happy to know these beloved objects were going to a good home.

Buyer AND Seller
October 3, 2018

I have found Maxsold to be both fair and transparent. Great place to find hidden treasure and also works to make room for those treasures. Just completed my sale and was pleased at the outcome.

I have now shopped through MaxSold a couple of times in a couple of different cities here in Colorado. I have been really impressed with the quality of the items and happy with my purchase. But what set MaxSold above the crowd is there customer service. No matter how many people are at a sale, picking up their items, the employees are friendly and extremely helpful. I have also been impressed with the measures that these folks take in caring for the property where the sale is taking place. It's a balance to satisfy both the end customers and the client. In a world where customer service is quickly disappearing, I have been so pleased with the service from what is ostensibly an online service.

Good stuff
October 2, 2018

I bought 3 different lots of articles from MaxSold a couple of weeks back. I was more than happy with the bidding process, and the continuous updates on my bids. I was happy with all my articles, and it was a simple process. I can't wait until there is another auction in my area.

This year I purchased a candelabra that was advertised as being Sterling Silver. When I won the item and got home with it I realized it wasn't Sterling. I wrote to Maxsold and told them what happened. They reviewed my email and then offered my money back. I didn't pay very much at all. I decided to keep it and resell it on eBay. The fact that they offered a refund made me realize they are a top notch business. They stand behind what they say. They have me as a life long customer.

Hidden Gem
October 1, 2018

I am ADDICTED to MaxSold! What's better than bidding on local estate auctions from the comfort of your own home?! I have purchased numerous items and had nothing but pleasant experiences. They have real-time bidding, low bidding increments and multiple detailed pictures of items that are listed. Make sure to bring your own packing and/or moving material as these are not provided.

I can not praise the Maxsold team enough from helping me do the contract online to the four members of the catalogue team coming to my home. After looking days before at their video to help me understand the process, I took colored post-its and put them on everything I wanted to be in the auction and what I wanted to keep for my move. As a widow, letting go memories is not easy. When the Maxsold team came, they put my mind at ease that everything would go as plan until the last item was carried away. I can not thank them enough for there excellent service and support. I recommend them highly and have also recommended them to my friends.

Amazing
September 23, 2018

Maxsold is so easy. I don't have to bring money to claim my stuff because it automatically put on my credit card. I feel that my credit card is safe as I have never had any problems. I have won several auctions and I am extremely happy with all of my items. Maxsold is the way to go if you are downsizing but if you are looking for that unusual item for that person or yourself this is the place to look.
Thank you Maxsold

Occasional buyer
September 20, 2018

I'm always amused by 1-star reviews, so I always read those first, regardless of the business being appraised. With Maxsold, it is invariably comments about items not reaching some pie-in-the-sky valuation that the seller seems sure they would've received if only they had used some other medium to dispose of their grandmother's belongings. I've never sold anything with Maxsold, but their terms and conditions seem straight-forward. I suppose if you don't read the contract, or have comprehension difficulties, you could become confused.

As a buyer, I enjoy the experience of Maxsold. Being able to browse what is essentially a series of large garage sales from the comfort of my recliner, and not needing to be an early-birder to find items of interest, is very convenient. My biggest problem is controlling the impulse to buy more items than I actually need -- how can I turn down a selection of power tools for only $5?

I LOVE MAXSOLD!
September 18, 2018

I just happened to come across the website for MaxSold one day and looked into it just for fun. I have since bid/bought from at least 5 auctions that I can remember and I'm hooked!

As a Professional Organizer and Certified Senior Move Manager®, this was our 4th time managing a MaxSold downsizing estate sale/auction and we also have recent experience organizing a sale for a MaxSold managed auction. Most recently, our client earned approximately $4400 from the sale of his late mother's home contents, in which over 96% sold. We were able to completely clear the home on the same day as the pickup, so that the new homeowners could move forward with closing on their new home. Overall, all parties involved were extremely satisfied with the results - the seller, the buyers, the Realtor, and the new homeowner. There's no question that we will continue to use MaxSold to downsize the estates of our clients! Thank you, MaxSold, for having this platform to make downsizing a little easier!

I've just recently begun to purchase items on MaxSold. So far I really love it. I've purchased items at six auctions and have been very pleased. The staff is very courteous when you come to pick up your items. I think that the items received are described and photographed accurately and there always seems to be something in the lot that you hadn't counted on. Lastly I think that the extended bidding is the best idea in online auctions since online auctions. Ebay should have done this years ago. No more sniping at the last second. The extended auction puts everyone on an equal footing.

Well run site
September 18, 2018

This site is very well run from both administrative and technology standpoint. They've clearly spent a lot of time working through how to make the best experience possible. One thing that I really like is that if someone thinks they're going to wait until the last 15 seconds to bid on something, the time is automatically extended to give the other bidders a chance to counter. Sometimes this incites a bit of a bidding war, but that's the idea. I've purchased many things through MaxSold. Some were amazing finds! Others weren't as cool as I thought they were going to be, but I've never felt ripped off and have always found good value in all of my purchases.

I have found some of the most amazing deals and items through MaxSold. Not only have I virtually redecorated my house, but when my daughter moved in we found amazing deals on great items for her as well!
I've since starting sharing items with so many friends who have jumped on board!

Great auction site
September 10, 2018

I find lots of great deals and the pick-ups are well organized and trouble free. I really enjoy browsing through the different auctions and always seem to find things that are of interest to me. As long as I'm available for the pickup time frame, I will usually bid on an auction. I've got some really good items so far. I really enjoy maxsold!
