I am sorry you are upset. All items purchased at liquidation auctions are returnable in 7 days.
We have a very open return policy if you call. Also we are very clear that all liquidation items are store returns and might not be complete which is why we offer the policy.

We are sorry you are upset. We are absolutely human and can make a mistake - and we forgot your items at a pick up.
You are always welcome to attend a pick up personally or send someone on your behalf to pick up. As far as our fees, we try hard to keep fees low for consignors and buyers.
It is absolutely your choice where you spend your money and we understand that and will take your feedback into consideration. Thank you for your thoughts and we are sorry that you were unsatisfied.

Karna, As I said in our discussions, I am sorry you had gone through a rough time since our auction. When you messaged originally, you stated that you did not have a credit card, I said you could register with your VISA DEBIT and pay via etransfer.
You agreed. On the last day of the sale, I messaged again and you agreed that you could etransfer. Then you said your card was locked and you could not etransfer until you got a new card - which is curious since online banking does not lock when a card is missing. I told you that we could wait until the pick up but we could not bring back items from a pick up without them being paid.
We are a small business with specific terms and conditions that you agreed to when you registered. You the stated your card would not be in until the 20th (which was 2 weeks after our sale closed). I told you that this was not acceptable and we cannot wait for payment. We asked you to call us MULTIPLE times (I have screenshots of all of our conversations) and you chose not to.
We attempted to work things out but we do NOT accept cheques or PayPal. Credit card or etransfer or cash ON THE PICK UP DAY are the only terms of payment as you were made very aware. Also you live in Ottawa and would not be able to pay via cash as you are not here. Three days after the pick up event, you stated you had a death in the family and would not be able to call, and while we are sympathetic to that, we simply cannot wait to be paid for items that were a week overdue from the last day of the auction.
I am sorry you feel like we are at fault here, and as I said, we are sympathetic to family problems, but we are a small business and this is a large invoice that we simply cannot take the chance that it would not be paid. Again, per the terms and conditions that you agree to when you register, if items are not picked up, they are considered abandoned - and you did not pick up or pay.
We have been in business for over 30 years, and are not a “scam” as you say - we just ask that people who buy things are able to pay for them in the required time frame. We do wish you luck with getting a new card and any family issues you are going through, and hope things work out.
I had notified timewell that my bank card got cancelled before auction ended I offered to pay cash at pickup and certified chq they refused .I offered to pay when my new card came in. They only wanted etrsnsfer of 1300 .
I explained I could not etransfer my card got cancelled .this order was fir a charity event.
They blocked me and said they were notifying other auction sites to block me .all I wanted to do was pay for my order . This was for an event to send a terminally I'll child to Disney surely they could have accommodated.
