GBThere were two separate issues There were two separate issues. One lot I won had a signed guitar, signed sheet music and signed book. The sheet music came crumpled and the book never came despite multiple emails. The second was a VIP experience. It took multiple attempts to reach the person who’s name I was given before it was realized she didn’t work for the charity anymore. Still haven’t been able to book the experience

GBLet me save you all the aggravation… Let me save you all the aggravation before you bid anything from CharityBuzz / CharityBomb. This is nothing but a scam, hiding under the “charity umbrella.” What they sell is a lot less if you go directly to the source despite them saying the “value” is more than twice what the actual cost is. I don’t mind paying for stuff but I hate being scammed. Someone needs to look into this further, I’m certain none of this is actually going to charity.

GBAppreciative Georgian I am a frequent user of Charitybuzz. I figure that Uncle Sam is going to take my money, so it is best to get to do unique things or to get unusual items, especially if it benefits charity; therefore, it becomes a win-win situation. I have found the Charitybuzz staff to be most helpful, especially if donors seem to be dragging their heels on redemptions. Keep up the great work!

GBDisappointed but determined! Won a trip through Charitybuzz with 2 round trip JetBlue travel certificates to Aruba! Only problem is there are not a lot of seats set aside for travel certificates! So you may find a flight out but no flight coming back on none at all for the dates you want to travel. I finally found a flight going to and coming back and requested to change my dates a week before only to be told the new dates were not available! Thank God I did not book my flights wiht the certificate or I would have lost out!!! Now I have to purchase my flights and I have until November to find somewhere to go so I can use my certificates that I wanted to use with THIS TRIP! UGH!!! Total inconvenience!!!! I just hope to have a beautiful time on my trip so I can leave a review of the hotel and my stay!!!! This may possibly be my first and last auction!!! Glad it went to a good cause though!

GBDavid Cook Meet and Greet Pop2000 Tour We had an incredible experience - over and above what we expected or referenced in the experience bid on. David was a fantastic host - spending time meeting with us before the show (approx 1/2 hr) and then offering us backstage passes to watch his set from the side stage. People behind the scenes were just as accommodating, showing us where the best place to watch from and offering us refreshments. After David's set we were told we could stay and watch the other acts from the side stage. What a great way to see a show from the artist's perspective. An unforgettable experience.
