Great Buying Experience!!
The item was received just as advertised. The auction house was very helpful in answering questions. I used Pak Mail for shipping and was extremely satisfied.

No communication, no receipt of payment, no response! Shame

Garth's Auction Inc.Dec 07, 2022
Good day-we have emailed twice to your address of record on 11/7/22 and 12/6/22 with your invoice for the two lots you bid on and won. Unfortunately, we hadn't received any communication from you either and have no way of knowing when you may not have been receiving your emails. Have you checked spam folders? We will be happy to forward all communications again along with wire instructions for payment. Feel free to call our offices should you need additional assistance or provide us with additional email.

Another great auction experience!
Garth's Auction is easy to work with and provides an enjoyable auction experience. The item descriptions are detailed and informative. I am pleased with my dolls. Garth's also offers customers a great third party shipper, The UPS Store # 3435. They pack the items extremely well, have very reasonable shipping costs, get the items shipped quickly, and provide excellent customer service. What a great all-round online auction experience.

Suzanne, thank you for your thoughtful review. We are pleased to know we did make your purchasing experience with us a positive one.

Great antique items and easy to work with!
Garth's Auction, Inc. is very easy to work with and, in my experience, is well organized and professional. The auction photos were accurate and informative, particularly as far as any damage/wear to the items was concerned. Both items were exactly as described; I am delighted with them. Garth's did not offer in-house shipping, so I contacted one of the shippers on Garth's list (UPS Store 3435), and they handled the packing and shipping very efficiently and were easy to work with. I thought their charges were quite reasonable. I just purchased a Lot in a subsequent Garth's auction, and again found them very easy to work with. I have also contacted UPS Store 3435 to handle the shipping for me. Both auctions were a lot of fun, with wonderful antique dolls and toys, and I look forward to participating in future auctions.

Suzanne, thank you for taking your time to leave such a detailed and complimentary review. Garth’s staff is most grateful to hear we made your first (and repeat) experience with us a positive one! We look forward to being of service in the future as well!

Great auction house but no shippers!
Everything went well with my purchase until I tried to find a shipper to pick up my item (a small wooden box). No shippers were recommended by the auction house so I contacted 6 professional shippers (UPS, etc.) located close to Garths. Unfortunately, no one would agree to pick up my lot. I finally contacted Garths to see if they could recommend a shipper (s). They gave me the name of one shipper. That shipper agreed to pick up my lot. It would appear that this auction house is best suited to serve local buyers.

Garth's Auction Inc.Jul 19, 2022
Hi Deb, imagine our surprise to read this when all of our interactions via email with you ended with positive comments from you such as "Thanks so much for the effort. It is much appreciated." To go back to the beginning, all of our emailed invoices are sent to winners with a list of 13 shippers (which was sent to you on Monday, June 20th.). Your June 23rd email asked again about shipper options (because you had likely contacted UPS stores not on Garth's provided list) and Lisa responded via email to try PakMail on June 24. Then June 27, you emailed again that PakMail agreed to pick up your lot and send to you. We assume now that you have your lot and all is well. Perhaps we can earn the other two stars back at a future auction. You are always welcome to call us with questions about any issue whether condition, provenance or shipping. Our team aims to please.

Very kind, helpful and responsive.
Primary shipper Garth uses was out for a month. Not Garth’s fault. Other shippers in area were very high priced, especially Pak Mail.

Ken-thank you for your patience with the vacation situation of our regular shipper and for your kind words about our staff member. We appreciate your business and review.

Garths doesn't ship, there is a disconnect between them and their local shippers.
Garth's is not concerned once your payment is received, and doesn't ship in house, and there are disconnects between them and their local shippers.

Garth's Auction Inc.Jun 17, 2022
Good Day, David-We are sorry to hear you are disappointed in some way with shipping. The timeline we have on file for your items indicates that you paid 5/23, sent us shipping release 5/26, and the shipper picked your items up from us on 6/1 (after the long Memorial holiday weekend). While we are not currently offering in-house shipping on certain auctions, we do provide ample choices for shipping to our successful bidders (currently 12 options on the list for packing & shipping of smalls and freight). Garth's always tries to give successful bidders every option and assistance regarding shipping, but timing of shipments beyond above is not always in our control. We hope you were happy in the end with your items. Do not hesitate to reach out in the future for our help with any aspect of your purchase. Thank you.
