Kamelot Auctions

We purchased 2 items from kamelot auctions at the beginning of covid. We live in Canda. The borders were closed so due to that we couldn’t get our items and international shipping was too expensive. We always were reassured that they understood the situation which was occurring world wide. In September 2021 they decided to resale our items and pay themselves a storage fee that was not agreed upon, telling us that we weren’t going to get one penny back. They never notified us that they would be reselling our items. They were very unprofessional and rude when we finally drove to the auction house in January 2022. They escorted us out without giving us any explanation and just said we owe nothing this concludes our business! They are thieves… they robbed us for the amount of 2275.00$ Becareful when dealing with these people and read all the fine prints!

Kamelot Auctions always has a wide variety of unique in interesting items. Their staff is very knowledgeable and always willing to provide information about the items being auctioned. I especially like their outdoor furniture auction. It's a great place to find unusual one-of-a-kind items or gifts for someone who has everything.

Just received a sideboard from Kamelot. The condition of the piece was grossly mis-represented in their description. The top of the of the sideboard has several very large dents along with numerous deep scratches. Because the piece is a veneer also undisclosed the options for repair are limited. But wait! It gets better: each door and drawer has one of those old timey barrel key locks on it. And...the piece came without the key!! The delivery driver said he asked Kamelot about the missing but they just said, "Don't have it. Sold as is." So okay, I could live without a key I suppose...BUT ONE OF THE CABINET DOORS IS LOCKED!!! Finally, it's obvious that each cabinet in this piece had a shelf. So far it's missing one of the shelves and I still don't know what's in the LOCKED cabinet. Never again! These guys are complete shysters. Buy beware. Or more accurately: buyer steer clear of these pirates.

Kamelot Auction is such a great resource to have. You don't have to worry about dealing with sketchy people on Craigslist or anything. They will help get your items sold for top dollar. I just want to give a shout-out to Tim Zeigler who is a compassionate, knowledgeable agent for them. He is sure to the best for you in selling your goods.

NEVER EVER USE THEM! After you read this post, you will understand why. We were moving from our 6,000sqf house to a condo. Kamelot was recommended to us by Moving Solutions. They are a "high end" auction house. What a joke. They wanted our high end furniture, antiques and origional paintings but sold them at flea market prices. We were sick to oiur stomachs when we started getting results back on our items. An antique Grandfather clock from France which we bought for $3,000 ,was sold for $200. A Stickley king bedroom set with armoire,blanket chest, side tables, lamps and head and foot board sold for less than a $1000. The bedframe used is $6-8,000. Origional paintings signed that we paid anywhere from $5,000-$2,000 sold between $400-$100. The list goes on and on! Before we let them take our things I asked Tim if he thought our paintings woud sell for less than $2k and he said absolutely not. In the end we decided not to give him a few pieces of furniture and a few paintings but that did not make up for the loss we suffered.They even charge you $25/item no matter how much it costs ,to put it on he internet. What a rip off. When we looked at our results, I called and told them how upset we were at the auction prices no rersponse and we wanted anything they had left of ours. They had 2 items left. We actually had to pay them fees to get these items back!! Never ,ever use this auction house . They are untrustworthy and suspect they probably had people buy our items at garage sale prices and resold them for a profit. Or they are just a bad auction house whose appraisers have no idea what items are worth. I have told other people about our experience. Either sell your items yourself,keep them, donate them to people who really need them, or interview different auction places and make sure you can set a minimum bid. If you do not know what things are worth get them appraised by a certified ,well trained appraiser. After we moved to Philadelphia, I called a large appraisal /auction group here that has locations in many states and told them what happened. The woman I spoke to was trained at Harvard, Paris and Switzerland. We actually brought over 3 items we did not give to Kamelot and thet sold between $2-5k, which is what we expected. We should have investigated this buisness before entrusting them with our items. This is one of the most devistating experiences we have been though.

There's something here for everyone's taste. Helpful staff, and a quick turnover. Would use them again.

Beware Kamelot catalog and condition information. Do not bid unless personally viewed. Stated watch was a replica, but have no watch expert on staff to speak with. Also stated watch was solid 14K gold and all calendar pushers functioned. Neither were true and several bidders were motivated to bid on this "sleeper". Refused to make restitution when found out the condition information was false.

Kamelot Auction House has a great selection of quality and unusual items. Their team is friendly and knowledgable and committed to helping those that are downsizing or looking to add to their collections.

I have worked with Tim for a number of years now. He is one of the best in the business in getting the best value. Kamelot also has great value pieces at every auction.

The don't provide condition report. Just cut and past from all on what ever. Pictures are useless. Why does one need to provide 26% commission for inaccurate and grossly misrepresented condition report. Really bad auction house.
