Seller I have completed nearly 2,000 transactions, and the buyer’s favorable comments are about 94% There is only one complaint. Recently, there are more than 50 orders. The buyer has received the goods, but Catawiki has been delayed in paying, about 10,000 Euros. It has been more than 4 months from May to September. I told Catawiki repeatedly. Do not give me a clear payment date, Please reply quickly from catawiki. When can the payment be made? 1 month or 2 months? Don’t let the seller wait forever, please reply

They force customers and sellers to sending them personal restricted documents (driving license, medical certificate) for "verification purposes". This is a scam. Shitty company. Please stay away form Catawiki.

They don’t pay on time. I sold and delivered an item to buyer even wrote positive review as well but I never got paid from Catawiki. 2 months later still no solution they blame it on payment system and having not enough Stuff. It’s is very frustrating and I’m starting to wonder is it even legal?

I should have looked here first. Catawiki is a scam. I never received my lot. It was supposed to be send again (so not very unique either). Tracking codes didn't work both times. Then weeks later all of a sudden the second one did work, informing me the item was delivered... but in other city all together. Since then... no more news... not from the seller, not from a catawiki... STAY AWAY from them.

I have wrote to your company in reference to overcharging my account. So basically, whoever took the money out of my account stole extra. I wrote in again and at this point I will be contacting my bank to dispute the whole charge. And I did take screenshots of the messages sent to your company as well as to the seller so I will receive all of my money back. So happy that I took screenshots of every correspondence with your customer service and seller. Never play games with one who does it better!

catawiki clearly manipulates reviews and removes negative reviews. i had a case where i bought 2 lots from a seller and was charged twice the very expensive packaging. afterwards that are the rules and that is not my discussion. I kindly contact the seller and the seller agreed to reduce the price of shipment. the 2 lots also arrived in a single tube the the shipment was not compensated as the seller had promissed. I kindly contact the seller to discuss this as he promissed me something different. i waited a few weeks for his answer. which did not come today i got a message from catawik support (liam) that my negative comment (that seller did not react and honor his proimissed), was removed to neutral. I explained to catawiki support, but they remained with their view. It clearly illustrates that reviews can not be taken seriously as support is beautifying the comments. so before you buy on catawiki : 1° be sure to check for excessive support costs 2° don't count on reduced costs if outside your country 3° support will remove negative reviews upon seller request. my conclusion is that seller review is a scam, as illustrated.

Listings are not verified and dont represent the quality and description of the item. I purchased a "new and unused" item that arrived chipped, badly maintained, supposedly marble but was resin. Overall a bad experience. I think the idea behind Catawiki is great, but lacks execution and quality control. Buyers be aware!

I was asked for a certificate of authenticity to sell a ring worth $ 50. I had to pay $ 60 to get 50. Specialists in crying

I have been a long term client with Catawiki. Recently I received a paid item damaged. I followed the protocol and contacted the seller and Catawiki for advice, and none has offer any resolution. As a mediator, Catawiki has failed to provide protection to buyers.

I bought a Breitling Navitimer from Catawiki, what goes forward 5 min every hour. Experts from Catawiki told that's ok. I returned the watch back to the seller, and now i dont have no watch and no money. So dont buy or sell from Catawiki

Sellers are treated in a lousy way. Dont sell in Catawiki unless you have some high profile item. Even though, commissions are very high and the service is... none. The so called auction experts decide on items based on a commercial value that is only in their mind, it's not coherent across time and items. It is impossible to obtain a response that is not automated. Lousy service and user experience, no responsibility and only cash in matters.

Catawiki sent me an email asking if had received my purchase. The same day I received the email, I replied that “no, the item hadn’t been delivered”. Over the next six days, I sent five additional responses telling them that the item wasn’t received. There was no reply from Catawiki until my last message to them stating that the item hadn’t been delivered and I was going to instruct my bank to do a chargeback if they didn’t answer my messages. At that point Catawiki told me they would not assist me and they had given my payment to the seller because I didn’t contact them soon enough. I will not purchase through them again. The item has still not arrived.

Please do not use this company. Catawiki's biggest seller lost my item (I don't believe it was ever sent as the tracking never changed), but because I didn't contact Catawiki (as per some very small text in a confirmation email), they refuse to refund me. The seller is fully aware of this process and yet tells me to contact Catawiki. I have had good experiences with all but the largest seller on their site, which Catawiki chose to protect. Please do not buy from seller grandscrus.

Worst customer service ever. Sellers can easy scam you and you dont have a chance to get your money back. Customer Service is not helping you in any way. Be aware of Catwiki!

The worst company ever. They don't have any policies to protect buyers when they don't receive their orders. Some sellers are professional scam so the system views the order delivered and send the payment. It would be fine if the sellers are honest but you'll never get your money back whenever they want to scam you. Their customer service also sucks. It would be extremely hard to reach them out though they don't solve problems for you anyways.

Dreadful customer service. I bought an item from a lunatic who misrepresented it and then threatened me and my family, used profanity and generally ruined my week. Catawiki agreed to refund me AND THEN CHANGED THEIR MIND. Horrible, unprofessional and slow. Why are they still in business?
