Great Auctioneers!
JM Hobby supply did a great job. My lot was exactly as pictured. They shipped exactly as described in the instructions they provide. I was a first time buyer and will bid with confidence again! JM Hobby is a Top Notch seller! They also provide great communication throughout the buying process.

Easy, seamless transaction!
I have bid in hundreds of RR auctions before, but the JM Hobby auctions are, without questions, the best in the USA. Easy to read and follow instructions, humorous news in their emails, quick customer service, fast shipping/great packaging, and an overall positive vibe. Bought two items at the last sale and very happy with how everything went! Keep up the great work!

Very Happy with This Auction
I was very happy with this auction. Both items I won were described accurately and photographed very well to show details. John went out of his way accommodating me, I had somehow overlooked the shipping invoice, so he had to resend it. Also-CLEARLY they pay attention to the most effective shipping-One heavy item was UPSd, the other shipped USPS mail. This auction was one of the best we've experienced with JMHobby.

Always enjoy working with JM Hobby Supply and Railroad Auctions
I enjoy working with JM Hobby Supply and RailRoad Artifacts. Besides great railroad ephemera and memorabilia, they are very proactive at keeping clients informed every step of the way after the auction closes, with patience and humor. It is always easy to forget that while I only have "one little book" for them to ship, they have another 1, 000 "one little book" auctions to pack and ship, and another 1, 000 bigger items. The friendly and straight forward communication is very much appreciated. I always look forward to your auctions. Thanks again!

Thanks again for your support, Micah! Hope you will be able to participate in our next sale in June 2024!

This auction house presents interesting and hard to find artifacts for the 'railroad collector'.
Great auction. The 3 piece REA sign I won was a great find. Very good condition and color. It really pops in the location and presentation I used. Exactly as the auction house described. I received the item very quick. I paid my invoice immediately and followed instructions. I did send in a question and had an immediate response. Will definitely do business again. Thx... tim

Pleased and happy with item
This auction house usually has a selection of interesting things, and I liked both the items I won, and the experience in getting them. (The emails explaining what was going on behind the scenes were entertaining, in and of themselves.) I plan to give this auction house more business in the future.

Seller was ok until I drove 1000 miles and 15 hours to pick items up.
The seller was good with me on answering my questions about the items but that was the extent of his help. He told me that he was going to another show on a weekend sometime before a date that we had agreed on for me to drive to pick the items up. When I asked him what time he was going to be at the location on a Saturday he was just very short and very unwilling to help me out in anyway. I had a deadline that I was dealing with because my daughter was having a baby shower the next day and I had a time limit to drive about the same 1000 miles and get the items and the turn around and drive all night to make it back for the event. He wasn't willing to work or bend with me in anyway. I had just decided that I had to stick to the original date for pick up. When the day before the pick up date arrived I left and drove the 1000 miles and 15 hours and checked into the hotel. I remembere that he was going to try to leave the moring of pick up early for another engagement so I called him to try to leave a message that I was in town. Well he answered the call and I let him know that I was ready when he was so that he could leave erlier if he wanted. I left the hotel earlier for him and my GPS told me which way to go and I got stuck behind a train loading at a grain siloh and instead of going up far enough to let us pass another 10 feet he just kept us blocked. I called the seller who became furious and asking why I came that way. When I re-routed and got close to his home I asked him which one it was he just started going off again and I finally just had to fire back what type of vehicle is in front of your house? I got there he was very short and kind of rude and NO HELP at all other than shoving a paper to sign in my face and then hold the door open for me to get out. VERY VERY RUDE SELLER. Maybe fine if you don't ever have to deal with on a personal level but just a fair warning!!!!!

We must laugh at how people lie and tell stories when they are too incompetent to handle their business. A day was discussed for pick up with this man so he could get his items on a day convenient to both him and us. We gave him several options. He chose his date. We agreed to meet at noon that day. We also sent him an email with EXACT direction to use to use so he could save some time and miles. Pretty simple, one would think, if a person could FOLLOW DIRECTONS! He called the day he arrived to ask if he could come earlier. We said was fine, since we were available, and it gave him an earlier start to his trip home, and us to our show the next day. You'll note he states he was using his GPS-HE TOOK A DIFFERENT ROUTE-NOT THE DIRECTIONS GIVEN TO HIM-and got lost! Then he calls us to tell us he is caught behind a train. Okay, thanks for telling us! So now, he wants us to tell him how to get here. But he CAN'T tell us where he is. Can't give us a street name. I AM NOT CARNAC THE MAGNIFICIENT AND CAN NOT GUESS WHERE HE IS!! He has exageratted in every instance. No one became furious with him. Then he called again-he couldn't locate the building number, even though it is on a large brick right next to the driveway! He called again, asking about what type of car I had. I had no idea why he would ask this, but I told him, after he said he STILL couldn't find us, the make and model of my truck, to which he answered that he was IN THE DRIVEWAY!! (okay-so he's not too bright!) He picked up the clock, put it in his car, and that was it! Pretty simple! He was asked to sign a paper stating he had picked up his item, which he did. Standard auction procedure. It was not "shoved in his face." And of course, we held the door for him! He was carrying his clock! Not sure what this guy's problem is. Seems like he just can't follow directions and blames others for his own incompetence and frustrations! Live Auctioneers has banned him from further auction bidding due to his lies.

Wonderful shipping and buyers premium.
It gives the buyer a buffer to go ahead and buy more items. With high shipping rates and 28 % buyers premiums it limits a person as to what they can afford to purchase. I was on the site for only one item, I ended up with three. It increased my collection without decreasing my bank account. Excellent shipping cost, and shipped in a very reasonable time, about 4 days from them to me. JM Hobby has a new customer with me.

Thanks Steve! you comments echo the sentiments of many, including some of our own staff, who are tired of the high buyers premiums and shipping fees charged by other auctions. We're glad you appreciate what we do!

Great to work with
They work with the Collector! They don't charge outrageous handling or auction fees! THAT is how to bring more business! It's very nice to deal with an auctioneer that doesn't nickel and dime the customer just for a couple extra bucks

Another Great Experience with JM Hobby
As a repeat buyer from JM Hobby's railroadiana auctions, I appreciate the good photos and descriptions in their listings, the reasonable buyers premium, and the at-cost in-house shipping. It certainly makes the online auction experience more enjoyable!

Very quick sendout!
This particular auction, I had one of the best experiences I've had since I joined LiveAuctioneers. From auction to receipt was just seven days. Even accounting for the fact that the items were simple, that's above-average service. And the items themselves are great. So I'm happy.

Thoughtful and Perfect Service!
I could not be more excited about the items I won at JM's last auction. The historically significant and rare sign is a gem and JM took care of shippign in a fair way so I was not over charged like some auction houses do! You can trust JM to take good care of the items you bid on and excellent customer service! Than you and Happy Collecting!

Thanks Joseph-we had a lot of fun on the auction weekend and have received a lot of nice emails. We hope you had fun, too! What we think is really cool is that every bidder had already paid for their items. All shipments will be out by tomorrow, only 10 days after the auction, and all consignors have been paid as of today, 9 days after the sale! We really try to care about our customers, both sellers and buyers, and appreciate those who work within the context of the policies set forth and communicate well with us. Being able to offer the lowest seller's and buyer's fees in the RR auction industry, as well as in-house, ACTUAL COST shipping, will hopefully allow us to lead the way into the future for all RR auctions. Thanks again!
