I'm relatively new to MaxSold, but I've purchased items from about 5 auctions in the past month and my experience has been great so far. I've gotten some fantastic deals on various items (including art, collectibles, jewelry and furniture). The MaxBid function saves time and energy and works just like advertised (it doesn't go to your MaxBid unless necessary). Pick-ups have been organized and easy. Overall, a fun experience with MaxSold!

We dreaded the thought of moving to a new style of house not knowing how to get value for our quality furniture. We had some very nice pieces which didn't agree with the décor we were trying to create at our new lake house. From start to finish our Maxsold experience was managed professionally by courteous and knowledgeable people and in the end gained us fantastic results. We highly recommend Maxsold as a preferred method for anyone downsizing or changing décor when moving homes.

Well after I wrote my review they reinstated me, 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?

My auction in oakville made me feel that the seller had taken all the better items and left all the older, less desirable, broken, non working, mismatched items that were a step above value village and that the seller decided it was easier to auction them on unsuspecting people than pay for movers... you have to watch and know exactly what you bought because stuff seems to disappear with all the people going in and out. I spent a lot of time removing damaged/old items... the linens should have been thrown out they were so old and smelly. Garden tools broken and quite a bit of stuff was over 10 years old... i would prefer being able to see the items in a viewing before bidding on crap.

I decided to relocate to my late father's 3 BR home in Maryland (my childhood home). Needed to sell most furnishings to make room for mine. A friend suggested MaxSold. From the moment I contacted Amanda for assistance to the day of pick up of items, I did not have to worry about anything. Once I decided what to sell and made the items accessible, MaxSold handled everything else. Patti Ridlon, Operations Manager, did an outstanding job of planning, organizing and managing all aspects of the auction. The set up and pick up events were executed flawlessly by Matt, Julie, Himi, Jamie, Cindy, Samantha, and Brittany. Their expertise, friendliness, and can-do attitude made all of the difference. I am very grateful to Adam Gordon, CEO, and everyone at MaxSold for raising the bar beyond all expectations. MaxSold is a tremendously helpful resource to sellers and buyers alike thanks to the outstanding planning, organization and execution of its leadership and team. Also, I have referred their impressive establishment to family and friends, and look forward to being a buyer in the future. Many thanks, MaxSold! Linda Erwin 5/22/2017

We were downsizing from a large 5-bedroom home to a 3-BR condo. We had already moved all of our favorite things to the condo, and much of the best leftover furniture had gone to family. We were left with many items that were used but "serviceable", along with some highly specialized items. We invited an onsite estate auction company to take a look, and were told we should "hire 2 dumpsters" and not bother with a sale. However, we knew that we had a house full of items that had a lot of life left! MaxSold was terrific to work with. During the catalog phase, we had two excellent photographers, who were diligent and detailed including the backs of items and specifically the scrapes, flaws and rust spots. The arrangement of lots showed the mark of an insightful and experienced team. The proof of this was that 98% of our items were sold, and our house was emptied within 5 hours! Communication with the headquarters team was excellent and transparent throughout the process. The gross on our sale was $4775. Although MaxSold keeps a hefty percentage of the proceeds, it was still great to keep our possessions out of a landfill, know that things will be put to good use, and make a modest profit in addition. I would definitely recommend MaxSold to a friend!

Finding your way after retirement is as murky as starting a new job, because it is one. Finding Maxsold has been an eye opener into an entire new world. Its not just "looking" at what is up for bid, but its the job of researching from the info given, using various websites and people. The "new" knowledge acquired in mechanics, pottery, painters, clocks, wood, vintage vs antiques etc... is invigorating and challenging. If I had not stumbled onto the website I would not have met a great bunch of people at Maxsold or
Broadened my mind in new directions.

Unlike the eBay's of the world, there is no rating system, where users can rate the sellers. Why bother? The majority of auctions are downsizing, a one off thing?
It the item is a "working item" and they do not say "tested, in working condition" assume it DOES NOT WORK.
If the listing is for MANY similar items, and they re NOT described in the listing do not assume anything. I have bought 65+ Lp's (they were 66), where the seller pictured 6 (Stones, Beatles, MJ, Joel) and the other unpictured 59 were non-english religious albums. But one is led to believe they are pop albums for that is what was pictured, BUT it never stated that. Assume you are buying what is pictured and described and nothing else.
Don't get caught assuming or you will get burned.

I have been a buyer on e-Bay and Craigslist. When I first saw MaxSold, I was skeptical. To register, you have to give a credit card number. Hmm...
I read the reviews here carefully and went to one of the addresses whose content is being auctioned off. Finally I registered and bid on an item just to test the waters.

The whole process went very well. I bid $2 on a bookcase. I was busy when the bidding ended (when generally most of the action occurs). So I set a max bid limit of $25.

The next day, I learned my $2 bid had won. The pickup process went very smoothly too. The directions were perfect. Staff had built ramps over steps and provided dollies for moving heavy and bulky items. Very efficient, helpful and friendly.
In less than 10 minutes we were heading home.

Great experience. Great buy. Highly recommend MaxSold.

I engaged MaxSold to help reduce my household inventory down to a more manageable state. I really didn't know what to expect but right from the start all options were explained and it couldn't have been any easier. I opted to use the MaxSold managed auction. From the ground crew onsite to catalogue and photograph my items down to the same crew on hand for pick up day>>> things went quite smoothly without any issue. 97% go my auction sold and a tidy profit to boot!

Thanks MaxSold

I have used maxsold for over 2 years now and about 10 different auctions and have had fast friendly service everytime we go pick up our merchandise. The photo's and descriptions on the auction website are accurate and the products we have purchased have always been in great working order. I would highly recommend this sight, you can get quality used merchandise at very reasonable prices and the attendants at the site are quick and helpful in showing you where your lots are located.
