Fun auction experience. Not sure about buying bids yet. Nice products though. Free shipping is a great idea

I just get a good laugh every time an ad for this site pops up using AI spokesmen and a good portion of the time, the AI mispronounces either Gov, or Auctions. Amazed that AI could even find that many... See more

I have won a few things on this auction deal site. Received them promptly in a beautiful condition. One thing that I won that I absolutely love is the Tibetan trumpets which was a rare item!

Thanks for saying so, Janice! Happy hunting on your next deal and thanks for being a part of GovAuctions!

Most lose the site wins.. give to charity not these clowns (gambling with little odds of winning)

Simply do the math then decide, it is a worse version of deal dash and you know how much the pennies cost there.

Update
They attempted to get my post removed as “defamatory” but trust pilot agreed with me it was not. Guess when you cannot refute facts you fabricate what you can, most likely in the hopes that while the post is removed for review you are able to continue with your money grab.

Remember to add up all those pennies and dollars and how much is being spent on each item as well as how much the winner had to actually spend not the manipulated low dollar amount.

Thank you Richard for your review. All GovAuctions battles have a "No Jumper" limit. This means that new bidders cannot enter battles after the price reaches the No Jumper limit, which is typically $5.00. We would love to look into this auction for you, so reach out at your convenience and we will be delighted to help.

I have had a great experience on…GovAuctons

I have had a great experience on GovAuctions.com I have won several auctions when I had no idea what I was really doing. They walk you through slowly, so you get the feel of things and then you can learn as you go. Pretty cool!! I really like the items I won and look forward to delivery!! Thanks and God bless!!

Are you kidding me

Are you kidding me, it took $100 to win a phone power bank I could have bought for $25. There's 70 or more people bidding with points, they are literally making thousands off a $100 gift card.

It is a good site to find great deals

It is a good site to find great deals. But the speed seems slow to what I have seen on other similar sites and apps. Huge lag when clicking on tabs or making choices on the auctions, sometimes causing multiple clicks

I was pleased to see this auction site…

I was pleased to see this auction site is in some manner affiliated with another site I have and continue to use, Deal Dash. I hope for the same satisfaction and impeccable customer service from this new site as well. Peace to all.
