Bidder Reviews for GCB Estate Sales (71)

Fulfillment is hit and miss.

Fair price for auction items, fair price for shipping. Great that they have in-house shipping.

Excellent transaction.

Items arrived, and were tested. Some will require tweaks and overhauling, consistent with age. Others tootle along merrily. (Packing peanuts were the only very minor point of contention!) Overall, happy.

Highly recommend this company. Excellent experience.

I found great value in my book purchases.

I often do not participate in an online auction but am so glad I found GCB Estate as their variety of items in their auctions makes it interesting, affordable, easy and very efficient process from bidding to shipping. Thank you GCB!

Navigating auction houses as a dealer yourself can be difficult, this transaction was as smooth as they ever are. Great items, responsive, item quality matched the details provided, in-house shipping MAJOR points for this as we move towards avoiding third party for small goods. Arrived well packed. Will absolutely be back. Thank you

You can bid with confidence with GCB Estate Sales... lovely items which are in excellent condition!!

Great auction house always something good!

Thank you for the easy experience with your company. The packing and shipping were fast and perfect and at a reasonable price. I will be watching your sales in the future and hope to buy from you again.

I have had the chance to bid on two separate auctions from GCB and have met Ann and Craig in person. They are such wonderful people! My transactions were flawless during pick up and they even sell things in house so I left with many more items both times I picked up! They also own a cute little store near downtown Melbourne and I also bought some items from there when I stopped through on a different occasion. Just a note, their warehouse is in a different part of town, but I highly recommend stopping by their shop as well. There was 2 very friendly women working there and they made it a pleasant experience to shop! I was able to add to my antique book collection since they also had a fantastic sale off of their books! Thank you again Ann and Craig! Can't wait for future auctions! God bless you both!

Very good auction company, and support well in shipping

I highly recommend this auction house! I would definitely buy again from GCB!

The best on line sales! Honesty, greatest communication, great condition all items. Super packing. Nice and sweet people. I will shop here again!

First time bidder and ended up with quite a few items (over 20). I was hesitant as they did not offer on site shipping and it was so close to the holidays. They responded promptly to my emails and gave me several locations that would provide pack and ship. Kudos to Atlantic Pack and Parcel for an excellent job of packing and shipping. Extremely pleased with both companies and will definitely bid with GCB again.

Between GCB and their shipper, my item arrived safely and in time for Christmas. Thank you.

As this was my first live public auction i wasn’t prepared for the shipping process after winning several items. I contacted the auction house to ask about shipping, because it wasn’t clearly outlined on their own website — the link was cyclical and the answer vague. They responded somewhat quickly with a list of UPS stores near them, and one private shipping company at the top of the list. But no other real information. I was left to cal the stores on my own, where they told me what they needed to pick up my items from GCB (who does not pack or ship the items at all). So I waited 10 days for the store to pick up the items (because they o my go to that location on Wednesday and I missed the cutoff). Then I didn’t hear back from the store for another weekend, after they told me they would ship by Friday. But I didn’t receive the bill (and I never knew how much shipping would cost at all, I was at their mercy). I finally called to follow up on Monday, and paid the bill — a whopping 54 $plus $10 for the pickup charge). So now it’s been paid, and I have heard nothing from the shipping company yet, no tracking number or anything other that a receipt for payment. This auction took place on December 4th. Today is the 20th, and my items are still in limbo. So frustrating and I wouldn’t bother doing it this way again, ever.

WDBA. Professional and easy to work with.

I have won items in two of GCB auctions and I couldn't be happier. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly! This is a small business that needs support. I'll see you at the next auction!!

They have some wonderful items for auction. I’m local so was able to easily pick up my items. Thanks

Wonderful auction experience. I love the items in the lot I won. It was exactly as described. Thank you!

Interesting product offerings, realistic starting prices, accuracy in descriptions and outstanding customer service aren't the easiest qualities to find en masse when bidding in auctions but this auction house proves it is possible to offer great items at fair market starting values and be responsive to potential sellers on all matters pre and post auction. GBC goes above and beyond to fill their auctions with integrity and satisfy their customers to the best of their ability and beyond! We'll be back!

Completely satisfied

I am very happy with this purchase and auction experience. Will be hunting for more treasures at this auction house in the future. Easy transaction and follow through was as advertised. Thank You!

Thank you
