Disappointed customer Wow! I was going to purchase something through Western Bid but saw their terrible reviews about how their customer service never bothers to respond to legitimate concerns. We were so looking forward to making a big purchase and I had a question on one of the items. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and still tried to reach out. As the other reviewer said, no one picked up the phone or responded to my inquiry. This seems to be a common issue with Western Bid. I looked on their company LinkedIn and I don't know how they are a Florida company except their 10 employees are all based in Ukraine. Seems pretty sketchy. I will spend my money elsewhere!

Western Bid Courier Service NOTE: THIS COMPANY IS JUST A MESSENGER/COURIER SERVICE. Twice recently I have bought items from an Etsy seller in Ukraine and each time they arrived safely. Yes it's taking longer just now but that's only to be expected. Western Bid aren't at fault for fake/shoddy goods, it's the item seller that's to blame. All these people leaving one star reviews about poor quality items aren't actually leaving them in the right place.

I 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."

Poor communication. I ordered an item through PayPal with these people. They only provided tracking information & notification that the item had been shipped after I raised a complaint with PayPal. Over three weeks after I ordered. No way to run a business.

Easy 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.
