Beware of Western Bid, Inc. Western Bid is actually a rather shady company who acts as an intermediary between primarily Ukrainians and PayPal. The Better Business Bureau gives them an “F” rating. If you buy a product from a Ukrainian seller on the Internet, such as through Etsy, you will not see their company name until you have already paid for the item through PayPal. I bought a Nixie clock on Etsy from one of these Ukrainian so called “craftsmen”. The clock worked for only a few minutes. When both my son and I tried to change the settings in our attempt to get the clock to work, we were both shocked. The shocks resulted in no serious injuries, but when I received my shock, one of the tubes began to melt. It was an obviously defective product that I tried to return to a Florida address that turned out to be that of Western Bid. PayPal refused to give me a refund but I have appealed the decision. If you are thinking about buying a product through Etsy, be very careful or you may get ripped off by these dubious characters who will spend your money while soaking up the sun in Florida.

Great service and tools for sellers. I'm surprised to see so many negative reviews. I work with this company since their foundation (and worked with these people even before this, when they had different name). Nothing to complain at all. Great service, wide choice of useful tools for sellers. The company becomes better every year introducing new tools and options. It seems some people just don't understand what this company do, and accuse it for actions of 3rd parties. Yes, they made some mistakes working with me too. But all cases were solved quickly and honestly. Lost packages were refunded. Wrong packages were re-shipped at their own expense. Actually, I do much more mistakes myself than they do. If you live in real world instead of your perfect dreams, you should admit that Western Bid one of the best (the best in my personal experience) companies in their market niche. I wish prosperity to them and to all their clients and partners!

I recently purchased some wedding decor… I recently purchased some wedding decor from Western Bid, and overall, I'm quite pleased with my experience. While the package did take a bit longer than expected to arrive, the support team was helpful in keeping me updated on the tracking information. And in the end, the package arrived just in time for the wedding! The quality of the decor was outstanding, and it added the perfect touch to our special day. I'm grateful to Western Bid for their exceptional service and support throughout the process. Thank you for helping to make our wedding day unforgettable!

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.
