I won auction which states it's was a 1.53 c.f. emerald ring. The picture clearly shows emerald stones. And then when my item just come in the mail it's not emerald stones at all like it says it is or like the picture shows .it jade stones nothing like emerald. So what is that how use work is it false advertising, I'm going to take this futher for false advertising. I'veTakin this to my lawyer.

I bid $33.00 On this ring.
The next thing I knew a notification came up on the screen saying I won this item for $105.
I never been $105 on this item and I did not click on anything at all for $105.
I manually put in $33 where it said submit your offer.
I took a screenshot of my offer for $33.
I also have a picture of the $105 then it says that I owe after I put the $33 in. This makes no sense. I was wondering if you could give me some advice on what to do from here.
Thank you very much

14K white gold, diamond, topaz ring (size 7 as advertised), but so weightless it can't be felt on my finger.
14K white gold, diamond ring (size 7 as advertised). Again so small & weightless.
'Solid' sterling silver, topaz necklace. The chain is so fine & the topaz so small, it's not visible on my person.

These items are a miniature copy of what is advertised on this site. They are like a child version of an adult product with a false quoted valuation. Very misleading & false representation of what now seems to be mass produced articles that are worthless.

If these items had been as advertised, they would be lovely, but instead a total waste of money. Considering I have bought these items in good faith for a total of $620USD, I believe I have every right to ask for a refund.

On february 10th, I decided to buy a fossil to add to my collection. The name of the fossil is a Trilobite. I saw one one the PoliceAuctions.com website and began to bid. Immediately after I bid, another bid for a dollar more would pop up. It kept doing it, so I kept doing it, just to run it up. It finally stopped at $30. I bid $31 and won the item. I thought it was a 5-6 inch fossil, the picture of it was really detailed, as though it were a bigger size. I got charged $12.95 for shipping, so basically, I paid over $50. Imagine my surprise when this very small canister came in the mail. The trilobite was clearly a tiny baby and was actually a .5 inch trilobite, worth about $5. It's too much of a hassle to get your money back with this company, so I will never buy from them again. I wish I would have read the reviews first before purchasing. I think they have a 'bot' bidder to bid up the price.

This is not an actual auction site... Its a ripoff site.

I made some bids on 6 items and paid for one when the system asked again with a red notice at the top to try again... I did... Stupid on my part
I went to my bank electronically and immediately noticed a double payment has been made

The items are worth at most 10% of what most people bid... This site is a rip off... The merchandise is overpriced, shoddy in construction and has little or no value for resale

Avoid this site at all costs

I'm not sure of the value on posting on here TBH as the business only responds with cut and paste replies.
They don't deliver products a lot of the time although they claim to have sent the items. When the items do actually arrive they sometimes look like just really cheap costume jewellery and they don't exactly match the photo supplied on the auction.
There's not much point in complaining though as they will permanently suspend you from bidding which is probably a good thing anyway. And when you ask why all you will receive is a response saying they have a right to do so for any reason and they do not have to provide you with a reason.
Just save your time, save your money, and go somewhere reputable because this place sure isn't reputable in a good way.

their stealing from the public 440 BC my a . gold that ant worth the shipping rings that are fake no wounder the people do like the cops stealing from us 2.25 dollars worth of nickels for 6900.00 $ and police things that they compensated ya write this site is a scam scam scam . gems that most likely fake .watches that say they 2.900 $ and are online for 100.00 lyres...

I bought a lot of gold nuggets from them the last 4 days.received my first order today what I bid on was 0.17 gram gold nugget what I received was 0.02 all of them I checked came out the same way.don't know why these people are not in jail? I have 19 orders coming now I am trying to get my money back but I will let the attorney General for this disrict know about there fraud!

I made a bid on Police Auctions and won a pendant. After that I paid for my item and received a payment confirmation from Police Auctions.
Three days later I got another message stating that I need to pay for my pendant. I contacted customer service and they said that they did not receive the money and asked me to pay if I want to get my item. I told them that I had a confirmation message from them and their rep replied that it was sent to me by a mistake. I even contacted my bank and they confirmed that Police Auctions did receive the money! They are nothing but scammers and they stole from me. This place should be out of business!

My purchases from police auctions us have done nothing but disappoint. Not one of my purchases resembles the jewellery displayed. One item quoted 14crt white gold with 7 diamonds valued at $3300.00, I needed a microscope to even see the chain let alone the pendant and the diamonds are a joke. Took it to a jeweller he just looked at me like I was a fool when I told him what I paid. When I went to send a review it would reject my written word this site only take positive reviews. I believe their office has people bidding on items if the price is too low so they can inflate the price. Yes, I was the perfect sucker (Victim) making 10 purchases for christmas presents, I was too embarrassed to give most of them and had to purchase other gifts so I didn't offend my nearest and dearest. Read the truth which is not allowed to be displayed on the police auction site.
Ps the perfumes are cheaper if you buy them directly from the company. I almost made a purchase for alpha by raphael and saved $100 by buying from the company.
Save you hard earned $$$$ avoid the police auction site

People beware and do not waste your money on PoliceAuctions!
This was the biggest mistake I've ever made and I regret I did not listen to other users. I saw all the negative reviews but I was sure that everything can't be that bad and decided to give it a try. I made a bid and tried to win earrings for my wife. I wasted over $500 and when I received them I was shocked to find out they were not even real gold! They sold me a junk replica! There was no way to get my money back because they refused to accept anything back. What a scam site! Please, don't waste your money! I'm sure everything else they sell is nothing but garbage.

Made a bid on this auction website and won. I won really beautiful earrings and wanted to surprise my wife. So I paid for them and PoliceAuctions said I'll get my order within a week. One week passed and nothing. Contacted them and they assured me everything was fine. Earrings arrived three weeks later and looked nothing like pictures on their website! I wasn't even sure if they were real!
I demanded a refund but these scammers ignored me and never replied! Don't do the same mistake I did and avoid this site at all costs!

This site here has nothing to do with the real police so don't fell for this scam!
I thought PoliceAuctions was a trustworthy site because there's a word "Police" there and I'm so angry at myself for falling for such a ridiculous scam!
I wasted my money and made several bids here and never won anything! And every time when I almost won they raised the price! Just a money waste and nothing more!
I also found many negative reviews about rubbish items, fake diamonds and stuff, so I'm actually glad that I quit PoliceAuctions.

I have purchased some jewelry from this website and received everything but one item was missing and it was the most expensive one. I did not receive the ring which cost me over $800! Items that I did get were nice and I really liked them, but still I'm super disappointed and frustrated. $800 is big money and it's no wonder they did not deliver the most expensive item. According to all the reviews PoliceAuctions is a scam business. Well, I still hope that someday I will get my ring.

My wife just bought some ear rings from this site. Once she recived it she can no longer log on. Deleted her account, further more when I called to try to return then all you get is a answer machine. Please dont buy from these crooks. Do your home work.

When I placed a bid, the site rejected it, and sent a counter proposal. However, the amount was obscured by the yes button. When I attempted to see what they were suggesting, the site automatically referred me to my paypal account to pay for this item! I had no choice but to either accept the bid without knowing how much it was, or reject it. Had the offer been reasonable, I might have gone ahead and bough the item, but it was waaaaay overpriced. Adding shipping charges, yada yada yada, it was a ridiculous amount. I strongly recommend avoiding this site like the plague!

Don’t even try to win something from the website www.policeauctions.com. I tried to win watches, but when only several second left, my bid was the highest, but suddenly the timer stopped and the website showed that no one won this things. Wtf? I tried to reach the moderators, but of course they didn’t communicate with the customers. I wonder if there are people, who have the same problems and what have you done in such situation, please post comments.

This company runs a internet site named Policeauctions.com... It is a compete fraud and I cannot understand why this company is allowed to operate. I have purchased a huge amount of items that were not as represented in fact the jewelry was all fake.. what can I do to recover the $20, 000 I spent... I am 80 yrs old and this is a disaster for me... I was

They billed me $7.95 for something I didn't order-the. Police Auction bulletin. I complained to PayPal to cancel the payment but it went through. I want a refund from these crooks! I see I'm not the only one they bilked!

I...'won' a bunch of items I got for christmas presents before going overseas... They came over a period of days... Each sorta more of... A downright joke...2 items broken... A bit of plastic that wasm supposed to be an opal... You would be better burning your money and enjoying the heat or the color of the flame than you would sending them any...
