Morphy Auctions

Never again will I purchase from this auction house. Crazy fees? I’m used to that (20% buyer’s premium, and an outrageous amount of money to pack the item for shipping). But I placed two bids on the same item because I changed my mind on my maximum. Unlike every auction house in the world, instead of just upping the bid, they have you bid against yourself. So two bids on a $ 200 item made the final price $ 225. I emailed about this when I saw what they did… no response. Then I spoke to «Angela», a woman who has never learned a single thing about customer service in her career, who didn’t let me speak, and kept repeating over and over that the email was sent to the wrong place (really? now how can that be when I got it off their website? I tried to explain that I didn’t care about the email, I cared about their process, and how they extort money from customers this way. If I have any additional problems with this place (I haven’t received item yet), will be updating my reviews and speaking to whomever regulates auction activity in the USA.

Great auction house for true antiques and collectibles. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about all the items.

Very greedy auction house.
20% buyer prem
25% sellers prem
That means these folks make 45% of the value of the item.
I dont see the value in doing business with this greed parade.
