Kastner Auctions

Kastner Auctions has been a good experience for my selling/buying needs. We have had great success in selling our items, as we have been consignors, for years. In addition, I have purchased many items. Preview any item you wish to purchase, so you really understand what you are bidding on, remember that there are auction fees, on top and prices can be unpredictable. Our thanks goes to Mikayla, the consignment desk guru, Lara, who is a gem in solving problems that come up, and does so in a hurry and finally, Ernest and Steve who have used their patience to guide us through a few hiccups.

I drove 2 hours out of town to pick my stuff up and because I forgot I needed an appointment, they did not release it to me. I have been a loyal customer with you guys for years and that's the treatment I get. He was very disrespectful as well. And all my stuff is still there! Not good business practice at all. Will be contacting upper management about this issue

I won an item 1.5 months ago. Still no word on shipping. Also only one picture per item? You guys have to put more, it's not difficult. Don't tell me about the 8000 items per week, you guys need to hire more people because 1.5 month for shipping within Canada is ridiculous.

We have been dealing with Kastner's Auctions for many years. Steve has always done his very best to accommodate our consignment requests. He works tirelessly and is very organized. Taylor is precise and very helpful when dealing with consignors, always making it easy for you on a one to one basis. Ernest is also a fabulous guy. Always there to calm you with his sense of humor. You never feel rushed.5 stars for the entire team at Kastner's ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sometimes you get a deal but buyer beware. The photos are very good because when I pick some stuff up it is much dirtier than what you see. They have a very broad definition of “vintage” and “antique”, so you have to have prior knowledge. Also, I brought an item home today and it is broken. This is the third item in a year that has been broken by staff because the damage isn’t in the photos. The other ones I caught before I took them home but now I’m stuck with this.

Thank you to Taylor for helping me threw the consignment process putting my trailer up for auction yesterday. Taylor is a very kind professional. Give her a raise people she deserves it.

The auction was great and good experience however the customer service experience was not too great. It's like they are forcing the guys here to work here.Also, I will advice anyone that wants to auction to make sure the view the quality of the goods in store first before putting in your offer.

So far, I’ve had a very good experience with kastner auctions. They are very organized and commission is fair compared to other auctions I’ve been to. Easy to buy and pickup is also easy.

We've been dealing with Kastner auction for many years.We have no problem giving them a high rating their service has been Professional as well Accommodating and negotiable.Thank you Dan Working with me on items and Concerns.Not to mention the good deals I got.

As a regular auction buyer, would highly recommend not buying any electronic or motorized items from this auction, as they don’t (can’t) inspect anything for operation, there are minimal photos to review and you have no recourse. They also seem to have sellers that bid up their own items (shill bidding). It’s a last-stop, mainly junk auction for bankruptcy and estate sales, so there are some occasional deals to be had, particularly if you don’t mind things a bit beat up or doing some minor repairs. However the risk of buying severely damaged or inoperable items is high, and if you’re a buyer that can’t inspect directly and is relying on the internet and their description it’s super risky. Items I’ve personally bought and were not functioning included a generator that was described in good working order (nope - completely inoperable). I no longer purchase anything motorized and am hesitant about anything electrical here at all, but for other very low-value items it’s good, and staff especially in the back are helpful. Best to spend very little and stay in the ‘if I have to throw it out no big deal anyway’ mindset. Watch the starting bid amounts, often they’re higher than the value of the item and you’ll just see it rolled over to successive auctions. Used furniture is pennies on the dollar here (as it should be) so good place for that.
