I contacted Ledbetter with a question regarding the shipping. They replied promptly and the issue was resolved immediately. My item was packaged very well and arrived in the time frame which was provided. Very pleased with my purchase!

If you want the best outsider/folk art with the best service, go to Matt Ledbetter.
The art Matt Ledbetter finds and sells is both the famous and the local artists he discovers. He has an exceptional eye for uniqueness and internal quality. His service is unmatched. Prices are still reasonable, but don't delay.

Matt Is The Man!
Great, responsive honest auction house. I have scored some wonderful pieces and will continue to do business with Ledbetter as long as they have auctions. Thank you Matt!

Best Folk Auction House on the net!
I'm a frequent buyer and seller with this house and I can't say enough good things about the experience. Family owned and operated, it's by far the best in the business. Keep up the good work!

Helpful & Kind + Beautiful Items
I won a large lot of antique tiles from an auction in January, which I needed to have shipped to me. Local shippers were totally unhelpful, but Ledbetter stepped in to pack and ship my items for me. It did take some time, and a a bit of follow up, but the items arrived in perfect condition. They were packed extremely well, and we are so happy with them.

Fast shipping, not very consistent in responding. Quality great. Top!
I'm pretty happy with the quick delivery of the parts. The quality is very good and the auction pictures were meaningful. The fact that I didn't actually get an answer to my questions isn't ideal, but that definitely has something to do with the amount of tasks and that's OK with me. Keep it up guys!

Excellent shipping of pottery
Matt Ledbetter and his crew and know what they are doing when shipping pottery and ceramics. Well packaged in lots of bubble wrap and not a ton of Styrofoam peanuts. Appreciate the care taken!

Great Auction Company with great lots
Ledbetter is a true Professional. He has multiple high resolution pictures and you know what you are bidding on and the condition. Shipping was reasonable and packed really well. His knowledge of folk art is undisputable and he has taught me a lot about a subject I already know a lot about. I highly recommend Ledbetter Auction!

Keeps getting better
I’ve bought multiple items from multiple auctions from Ledbetter. My most recent purchases were packed super well and shipped in time for Christmas. Matt tries hard and responds to most texts very quickly. I’ll be back for future auctions for sure.

Was told quilt is excellent condition. It is just above a cutter.
Was interested in this quilt. Was told quilt is excellent condition. It is just above a cutter. The border is heavily frayed and a hole and heavy wear through out. When inquired they say it was in excellent condition with one minor wear spot as pictured. Got the quilt and it is worn out through out the whole quilt. The edges are all frayed and worn through. The body of the quilt is worn over the complete quilt. The "minor" wear area in about the size of a dinner plate and goes all the way through the quilt. Four hundred dollars down the drain for me. Worst auction transaction of the last few years from any auction for us.

Everything said in this review is 100 % seen in the photo. the frayed edges and the wear in the middle of the quilt. It would help you to examine the photos before bidding, we took a very well lit photo of this quilt so you could see the frays on the edges, as we did of this quilt and the other 20 quilts we sold at this auction. Wish we could leave a 1star review for bidders!

Honest, friendly and knowlegeable
This s a great auction house who knows and enjoys the folk art they sell, both old and new. Staff are helpful, descriptions are accurate and shipping is fast and reasonable. Use their inhouse shipping. I have shipped booth glass and iron items, and they do a great packing job.

They are ignoring me and not refunding me since the item arrived broken
Terrible. The item arrived broken. They acknowledged this and keep making excuses for not refunding me and are now ignoring me.

Good honest people!
Never an issue of any kind. Photos always complete-they are the description. If you have a question-ask! Their written descriptions are minimal, on occassion they might leave out a measurement or other pertinent detail. Ask-you will get a quick response. Packing is outstanding-if it were possible to overpack they would be guilty.

Great Auction House to work with!
Ledbetter Folk Art Auction is professional, efficient, easy to work with, and offers unusual items at auction. Their descriptions are accurate, and the photos enhance the written descriptions. In-house shipping is a plus, and the shipping and handling cost is extremely reasonable. The packages arrived so quickly that I thought they came from Amazon... The two face "jars" are even more expressive in person than they are in their photos; I'm delighted with them. I am looking forward to future auctions with Ledbetter Folk Art Auction!

I like bidding and winning with Ledbetter because they will ship winning item to me. I don’t need to contact shipper, get estimate, and pay separately.
