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.

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.

another review update for their non… another review update for their non existent customer support. clearly other customers are experiencing the same disgusting issues with western bid. this is a phony scam shell company that i'm pretty sure is laundering money through it as a front. they still refused to refund me a proper amount despite the product i purchased causing health hazards. everyone should AVOID. they do NOT respond even though they keep saying they would. AVOID ALL THEIR UKRANIAN SELLERS AND WESTERN BID ENTIRELY. update to add: i wouldn't have to keep leaving reviews IF THEY JUST RESPONDED TO MY 10+ emails to begin with! I have already provided all the specifics and they have my order #. they are LYING and pretending to be the victim. why would i publicly leave my personal address and email address on a review? especially when i've provided it to them numerous times via e-mail already. i've detailed everything with my order YET THEY STILL REFUSE TO REFUND ME A PROPER AMOUNT. $50 does NOT make up for all the issues we have been facing with the produce we purchased. it is not "overwhelmingly unspecific." they're lying through their teeth and they can't even get customers names right. mr CJ??? Where is the C?? how can anyone trust them to get orders right if they can't even do the bare minimum of PROPER SPELLING? their phone line is a scam too. it just goes straight to voicemail. they don't respond to emails. they don't respond to phone. they don't respond on Better Business Bureau. seriously how can anyone think this is anything but a fraudulent money laundering shell company?

Western Bid I have purchased many, many items from shops located in Ukraine and Russia through Etsy, and ultimately Western Bid. Every single purchase was shipped quickly, and I received EACH AND EVERY one within a few weeks (as noted in the shipping times of the individual shops). I understand that sometimes things happen, and shipping anything these days is taking a chance. After reading all of these negative reviews about Western Bid, I felt I had to at least provide my numerous extremely positive experiences regarding this company.

does not fulfill its commitments Hello Mamtuk, You still haven't answered my message from February 1st. I note that you have blocked me on Ebay so that I cannot contact you which is very suspicious and ugly of you. Could it be that you are doing it because you have not sent the new prism and you have lied to me? I will appreciate your news regarding the shipment of the new prism to avoid having to report you to Ebay. Greetings Angel Jimenez
