GBTHIS IS SCAM COMPANY. BEWARE This is a fraudulent company operating on Etsy, Ebay using PayPal. With many complaints and opened cases. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY. REPORT AS SCAM. Details: Etsy Shop: silkstoreuz (Umid Sultanov) one of the operatives for this scam company. Goods ordered almost a year ago, PayPal charged immediately by WesternBid. Wrong goods sent at first, communicated with the seller multiple times, and he promised to re-send the goods. Still almost one year later no goods received. Working with Etsy to remove the fraudulent shop on Etsy operated under this company. Also, when I called PayPal to report this transaction, they said that WesternBid had MANY complaints like this and they will be taking actions as well.

GBI just passed through this page and… I just passed through this page and couldn't remain indifferent to what I saw in the comments. For several years, I have been consistently buying products from Ukrainian manufacturers on Etsy who work through WesternBid. All the items I purchased were delivered even in the conditions of the war in Ukraine. Only twice I really did have to contact WesternBid by email, but my messages were not ignored. Indeed, they do not provide comments regarding the details of the products since they are not sellers, but they helped me to obtain contacts of the original manufacturer who clarified all the questions I had. I also once requested information about the tracking number of my package, and I received a comprehensive response. I am curious why I see so many negative reactions here about the company. Who left them? Just out of curiosity, I visited the profile of the user who left the most aggressive comments. It seems that this user is engaged in fraudulent activities, purchasing goods or services and then blackmailing companies and shops with negative reviews to get refunds. Please, check for yourselves. I believe that WesternBid has become a victim of deliberate bulling by the fraudster. I also believe that Trustpilot, in this case, was used as a platform for blackmailing and as a tool for implementing fraudulent schemes. I deeply regret about this."

GBEasy Transaction I purchased two carved wooden walking sticks on Etsy. The seller was located in the Ukraine and had dozens of positive reviews. I paid using PayPal; the transaction was facilitated by Western Bid on the Seller's side. I was a little concerned about dealing with the Ukraine, but there were no problems at all. The canes arrived in good time and without any damage. They were as advertised and I'm very happy with them.

Don't mess with looters
