The experts are very uninformed and unfair. They manipulate people according to who they want, there is no equal sales environment.

It has been my unfortunate experience, that crooks (especially Belgian crooks) sell at Catawiki because Ebay protect buyers much more than Catawiki does.

AVOID. I've bought a watch and in the ad it says that it have a 16cm strap. According to common sense the strap is the part that connects to the watch. So to calculate the diameter I added the size of the watch to the size of the strap and concluded that it fits ok. Once I received it I found that the 16cm was the total diameter. Reach out the seller and he told that my understanding was not correct. Opened a dispute in Catawiki (it took one month to get their supposed experts an answer) and at the end they said that a strap is the total watch, even after sending them several examples of sites showing how to measure a watch. They simply closed the dispute without any further response to my arguments. They only defend the sellers. It was my worst experience buying in an auction. Don't recommend at all. Now I understand why they don't accept PayPal. They might say that I missed a deadline to provide evidence. AMAZING!!! I never missed any dead line. I send all the evidences that were asked and this ends by the supposed expert saying that Strap is equal to the all diameter. I send several specialized sites where they show how to measure a strap and the diameter and Catawiki just invented a new definition of Strap and closed the claim. Just Amazing. AND ASKED HOW I COULD APPEAL AND GOT NO ANSWER. AVOID.

Be very cautious if you want to buy from this site, you cant remove bid and if you dont pay they send debt collection for you. AVOID!

Catawiki, the online auction, requires that a winning bidder (Buyer) deposits a sum equal to the price of the item plus a set shipping charge; delivery to an island costs slightly more. I had winning bid for a sofa and two chairs. I paid Catawiki 700 Euros for the furniture, 350 for shipping, 66 for Catawiki commission for 1,116 total. Seller required to ship promptly but after several weeks the items were still in Italy with the Seller, Arrediantiquariato Napolitano Carmine. They claimed arrangements had been made but the transport was delayed because of the holidays. Catawiki offered to cancel the sale, but the Seller promised me that shipping was imminent so I declined to cancel. A month after the sale Seller notified me that he had just discovered that I lived on an island and he demanded more. I didn’t want to start over searching for furniture so I agreed to pay more directly to Seller based on Seller’s promise that there would be no additional charges. Catawiki was not involved. A week later the shipper claimed he needed to rent a special truck because of the road to my house, even though I drove over it every day in an SUV and I had never ever had a problem with a delivery. Seller demanded another 180 Euros and I canceled the sale. Seller put in a claim to Catawiki for Shipment costs in excess of 650 Euros. Catawiki ignored all my statements, which were supported by copies of Seller’s emails and texts, and they approved Seller’s request for payment. My demands for copies of Seller’s emails and invoices was refused by Catawiki and I have never been told by Catawiki how much they intend to give him from my deposits, which means I have no way of knowing whether Seller’s claim includes charges that I had already paid him directly. Furthermore, Catawiki should be limited to paying from my shipping deposit, 350 Euros, and not take from moneys I deposited for the items.

Απαράδεκτη πλατφόρμα. ΕΞΑΠΑΤΟΥΝ ΤΟΝ ΚΟΣΜΟ. Αγόρασα ένα δίσκο που σύμφωνα με την περιγραφή ήταν ασημένιος. Τον παρέλαβα και παρά τη σφραγίδα και την υπογραφή με γυμνό μάτι φαινόταν ότι δεν ήταν ασημένιος!!! Μου το επιβεβαίωσαν επιπλέον 3 αργυροχόοι στη συνέχεια. Ζήτησα τα χρήματα μου πίσω καθώς το προϊόν δεν ήταν Ασημένιο όπως αναφερόταν στην περιγραφή. Η πλατφόρμα ανέφερε ότι δεν μπορεί να κάνει τίποτα γι'αυτο και να επικοινωνήσω με τον πωλητή! Από τα 308 ευρώ που πλήρωσα ο πωλητής ανέφερε ότι αν του έστελνα πίσω το δίσκο μπορούσε να μου επιστρέψει 213!!! ΑΠΑΡΑΔΕΚΤΟΙ
