They lie about the shipping pricing on the website until after you've purchased and 15 days later, €400 spent on shipping and they still haven't shipped the item or provided tracking

AVOID! BUYER PAYS PROVISION NOT SELLER

AVOID! BUYER PAYS PROVISION NOT THE SELLER. WON UNUSED GULDI, 380+ SEK FOR SHIPPING WHICH IS EXTREMELY HIGH BUT THOUGHT IT WOULD STILL BE UNDER MY BUDGET WITH THE AMOUNT OF WINNIBG BID. BUT DURING PAYMENT PROCESS 25% PROVISION FEE PLUS ANOTHER SMALL FEE FOR WHATEVER SERVICE ARE ADDED SO I HAD TO PAY ABOUT 700 SEK JUST FOR SHIPPING AND PROVISION PLUS WINNING BID OF ABOUT 1400 SEK. THE TOTAL AMOUNT IS WAY ABOVE MY BUDGET BUT IM FORCE TO PAY THOUGH I WANT TO CANCEL EVERYTHING. TRADERA IS MUCH BETTER YOU PAY THE WINNING BID AND REASONABLE SHIPPING WHICH COST A FRACTION OF 385 SEK. FIRST AND LAST TIME TO USE AUCTIONET. NEVER AGAIN!

Perfect, as always.

I’ve been buying from Auctionet for a while now, and every single experience has been perfect. The team is always professional, kind and incredibly helpful — everything I’ve purchased has arrived looking even more beautiful than shown in the photos.

A special thank you to Marcus, who went above and beyond to assist me with shipping and storage, making every process super stress-free.

Auctionet truly sets the standard for trust and quality in the antique world — from the communication to the curation, it’s consistently excellent. Highly recommended!

The auction really messed up the delivery. They may not deliver your goods because they choose a poor service, no one will contact you, and if you do not pay for delivery again, they will confiscate it in accordance with certain Swedish laws that you will not understand. It is useless to correspond with them, their feedback is rude, and they do not want to communicate in a friendly manner! They only threaten you with penalties and confiscation, as they are clearly not interested in solving your problem. If you are planning any purchase and do not live in Sweden, consider the risks.

my day

Even though it was about a complaint about an 18th Boulle-type fireplace clock - France and I initially thought they wouldn't help me because it was a "small defect", I am very happy with the solution to the problem :) my day became sunnier despite the autumn weather in the country

I have bought 3 items from auctionet

I have bought 3 items from auctionet. Everything went fine with thefirst 2 items. The 3rd item - a lamp bought for more than 6000sek(700 euroes) - is still not delivered. Even though it was picked up at the auctionhouse 6th of october. At the same time I have not received any messages concerning the delay (?) - nothing at all. Have tried to write and call, but still have had no answer.

Status 24.10: This morning I get an email, saying they will contact the tranportportteam in order to find out where my lamp is, and get back to me "as soon as I can".

Status d.29.10:Finally got an update. It seems like the lamp is more difficult to send than I thought, and because of this it takes longer

Hi Line,

Thank you for your feedback and for your patience.

We’re sorry for the delay and for the lack of communication regarding your lamp delivery.

Our team always does its best to ensure every item is handled and delivered with care, but sometimes large or fragile pieces can take a little longer to ship safely.

We’re glad you’ve now received an update, we hope your item will be with you soon! 🌸

Best regards,

Item as informed, well packed, but extremely slowly delivered (after specifically asking for it)

The item was as informed and packed well enough, but the delivery was unacceptably slow: it was sent only after I had to ask why I was not given a tracking code as normally is, a whole three weeks after the auction (and I even did not get any answer to my query, only a machine-generated note on delivery). My earlier experiences with Auctionet are immaculate, so this one was a most surprising one and hopefully a rare exception.

I received a broken piece

I received a broken piece, no response from Auctionet after various mails and calls. You cannot position yourself in the first league price-wise and then have this awkwardly bad customer service. What a pity! Not recommended.

14.10.2025: Auctionet Support reached out and offered 120£ compensation for a broken frame that easily costs 400–500£ to replace. Which kind of art auction plattform excludes frames and does not mention this explicitly upfront? What do you insure the transportation for?!
