Great company. Amazing employees that are super friendly and helpful. Highly recommended company! Perfect customer service and great products weekly. Thank you so much.
We were the winning bidder on this vehicle and were excited about it. We called to schedule pickup, ordered tires and wheels (as the 22 are not our style) and then were called and told the owner picked up his vehicle . Turns out the owner didnt like the price he sold it for and backed out, after the fact. Well I mounted new tires, on new wheels, and cant return them, so what about that? Why am I obligated to buy, but a no-reserve, online auction seller can renege on the sale? I even offered to pay more and negotiate with the seller, pay his reserve of $1700. but still not a response.I bid with the understanding that if I was the high bidder, I would own the car; not if I was high bidder, that I could be strong-armed into paying more. And what about tires and wheels that now I dont have a vehicle to put them on? Feel we really got shafted this time around. I expect more from Lightning.
Always quick and pleasant to deal with!
Won 2 items last weekend, the staff was very friendly, the items were as described & as pictured. We even took our piece of jewelry we had won to the jewelers to be looked at & resized, the jeweler we worked with had very good things to say about this company as well. Looking forward to finding some more fun things through this company!!
It should definitely be a place to visit more often. You can often find historical novelty items on auction here.
This is my long over due Thank You to Lightning Auctions. In 2018 my father passed away. His household included all the usual things, but also a lot of equipment for hunting and fishing. He collected many antique items and had many taxidermy trophies. Without Lightning Auctions I dont know what we would have done with all of it. It would have taken years to sell that many pieces. Lightning came, picked it up, and auctioned it all off. It was amazing. Thank you so much. Dealing with my fathers estate was quite a process. Lightning helped us greatly! Juli Burn
I buy a lot from various auction houses around the country, which means I have a lot of items shipped to me. Lightning Auctions did not play around and packaged my item better than any other auction house I have dealt with. They also allowed me to save my items from multiple auctions to save on shipping. I would recommend them to anyone.
Love their online auctions and it was so easy to setup an account & bid!!
I love vintage items for my home and lightning Auctions often has a great assortment of treasures. They are very nice, efficient and seem to genuinely enjoy what they do. We have purchased from other auctions but lightning auctions has been the best. The app is also a great feature and makes bidding easier. We are very pleased with all of our purchases.
Awesome prices and Auctions!ENJOY!
Always a lot of photos of the lots are great if you cant go to the preview. Very nice people who provide friendly efficient service and a well kept facility. Its like a treasure hunt.
Great staff and nice things. Very honest
Awesome auction!
WHAT A WONDERFUL COMPANY!!!! They treat you with respect and kindness. They do not threaten to cause you physical harm and find you since they have your personal information like their competitor in town. They DO NOT have employees who steal your credit card number like their competitor. This is the only auction in town you should be buying from... DO NOT buy from their competitor in the stead area unless you want to purchase WRONGLY DESCRIBED JUNK, be threatened, want your credit card stolen. LIGHTENING AUCTIONS is the only place you should do business. THEY ARE AMAZING, KIND, AND HAVE GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!
My husband and I bought a car from here and several items from their other actions. The car runs great and looks great! There are quality items auctioned here and they have some very rare vintage items also. I am very happy that this place exists.
This is the place to get and get the stuff you really like.
I have enjoyed many auctions at lightening auctions. The items are mostly good quality and the Staff is very professional and always friendly and helpful. They always seem to come up with interesting things that that you cant live without . Five Thumbs up!
I have had many auctions for items I have inherited... The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and extremely helpful and friendly, especially Hector, Kyle and Tara!
Rude staff. They sold a fur coat held together with hot glue... when I showed them the young man was non caring and rude. A few months later they sent me an invoice for earrings two days after the auction ended. I called offering to pay... but explained I had left town for work for three weeks. If it had been marked “won” or invoiced me as normal the next day - I could have picked up on time. The person said pick up by Wednesday- period they can’t store things.Then when I tried to let the owner know he was absolutely rude and showed anger with my “complaining”.I referred hundreds of people I met in my work who were buying homes in the area... now I will do the exact opposite- BEWARE what used to be an honest local company has turned into a scamming rip off joint!
Love Lightening AuctionsHave gotten some really nice stuff there.
I have bought and sold at Lighting Auction many times. The staff has always been Very helpful. The front office run by Kyle have always done an outstanding job. The main room run by Hector has gone to great trouble many times helping me unload and write up my lots that Iam selling. Linda has always been very prompt in paying me. This is by far the very Best Auction House in Reno. Thank Tom Johnson
Lightning typically conducts about three estate auctions and one auto auction each month. They also sell items on consignment. I have purchased numerous items and even two vehicles through them.Although the auctions used to be live, they are now all conducted online. I prefer the excitement of the live version. I find their website annoying.
I have sold many many Items of all kinds, no junk allowed, why waste there time on such A thing, they always give 100 percent on selling all of your fine things, and always polite and knowledgeable, just don’t take junk in there, they will make U money, which always makes everyone happy, so B Happy
Excellent weekly auctions. If you are a consigned be aware that they are very slow pay after the auction.
The staff is fantastic! The auctions are always great but the people make this place top notch without a doubt!!!
Handled my issue with my account.
What was auctioned, was presented well along with condition. No surprises when picking up, they were helpful and courteous.
Super great awesome by Best Buys Everett auctions cuz you never know what you can get for the best price
I tried to point out that there was a problem with their internet bidding system and they would not believe me nor accept it. They wanted me to furnish proof in order for them to address the matter, all I had was a witness that saw my screen that I placed the winning bid amount yet it was sold to someone else at the price of my bid and I had no opportunity to re-bid because it showed that I had the winning amount. I dont care that I lost, I just wanted to point out to them that there was an issue maybe get some explanation but they refused to legitimize my claim, instead they were mad at me with one employee hanging up in anger towards me. I have no reason to make it up folks I already wasted enough time on them and to get treated like that is pretty lousy... BEWARE
My favorite auction house! Lightening and Kyle are awesome.
Staff will never offer to help or even say hello. It is a shame they are the only auction in town that does what they do. Very disappointing.
Great people to deal with
Study the items before you purchase and you be fine.
Ok
These people are crooks!!!p.s. i didnt ask you...heard all about you!!
Guys in front office are always professional, courteous, and helpful.
Do not buy automobiles from here. They sell lemons. Pay with cash when you go to pick up the items. It will save you lots of monies.
Fun, fair and friendly
Been buying from them for a long time. Great stuff and good people to work with.
Love at first bid!
Have gotten some great deals here
Item not as described. (Said it was new when it clearly wasnt. )
Always great service. Items always as described.
Viewing is only Friday and they only let you see the inside of the cars for a couple hours also with the construction going on very hard to get to be careful of taxes and fees after you buy your items
The staffs are so terrible, the price was higher than the retail price. No recommend.
Kyle is an extremely rude person. I have never been treated by anyone in my life the way Kyle spoke to me. Highly highly unprofessional, I would never go back and I would highly recommend others not going
Horrible the way they treat customers. Read the Yelp reviews, they are not honest at all and they dont care.
The staff was friendly and coutourous
Cool stuff
Fun shopping online
Great transaction!
Lots of stuff
Good auction
Ehhhh
