My husband and I have been using CT bids for a couple months now doing their online auctions and purchasing items. Most of the auctions we've got good quality stuff and we're happy with the purchases but here lately it has not been the same. The pictures have been deceiving they show it in the best light and then we pick up the items and they're covered in rust broken and or don't work. We also think that they are up bidding items. One of the auctioneer Took us to a storage unit full of the items that they up bidder people on and won at their own actions because they weren't getting the amount of money they wanted for the items. That's the good part of auctions is that you can get items for cheap but if they're up bidding them it takes the point of online auctions away. My advise to anybody using CT bids is to not expect the items to look like the pictures they probably will be in much worse condition or may not even work and if the bidding is going to high stop bidding bc it could be the seller bidding up the item.
