Bidder Reviews for MBA Seattle Auction (456)

I am hoping to use this auction house again for more Rie Munoz prints. Easy peasy from beginning to end and my print is as perfect as I had hoped. Happy happy!:)

I wish there had been a more affordable shipping option.

Very satisfied.

Very satisfied with the item I purchased. Just as pictured, great price.

First time using MBA Seattle Auction Five stars!

good transaction as always. used liveauctioneers shipping for the first time and was satisfied.

Nice to deal with. They answered all my questions.

Items should have a reference for size for each item like a dollar bill or a coin the photos provided make the items look bigger than they are even if general sizes are provided. My shipping with an outside shipper was expensive because they also thought the items were bigger than they thought. I will reconsider looking at this auction house.

This auction house is top tier! I love the two Dal í lithographs I got here! Easy to deal with!

I collect Northwest artists works from The 1970s to 1990. This auction represents estates that contain lovely pieces. They are honest and forthright about the pieces they sell. I trust them Completely after purchasing from Them For decades. My highest recommend. The UPS Tukwila store is fantastic and worth every penny! They are careful and pick up items quickly

Beautiful item, great packing and shipping with Live Auctioneers/Navis. Thank you!!!

Item was as described and packed very carefully. Unfortunately one of arms broke in two in shipping, though it appeared to be very well packed so I'm assuming the postal service used the box as a football. The auction house offered to pay for repair, but it was a fairly minor fix and paid for it myself.

Very courteous and easy to work with

great paintings, good communication and fast shipping. A + + +

good items, good seller

I purchased a small item. The invoicing was prompt and payment was easy. They shipped via USPS very quickly and shipping costs reasonable. Thank You!

This auction house accurately describes its lots, handles transactions effectively and even ships smaller items. When I’ve purchased larger items they’ve assisted me in securing a carrier to transport the kit to me. Overall, very positive experience.

Trustworthy, professional auction house.

I had some concerns about not being able to track the item on Canadian Far West territory and contacted Judi and Michael about it. Both were reassuring that it would be delivered soon. And if not, they would take info on the situation. So I felt I had some back up in case of a problem arising. The package arrived soon after these contacts were made and the rug was safe and sound. Exactly like it was pictured on Liveauctioneers documentation. So thank you to MBA for their kindness, communication and shipping efficiency! J.

Auctioneer is top notch. Very efficient, prompt, professional and personable (Phone call)

I was completely satisfied with my purchase of a beautiful daguerreotype. From the quality of the product to the ease of shipment from the auction house, my experience was excellent. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase from MBA Seattle Auction in the future.

Great item and exchange.

These people are great and professional

Great Local Auction House with a diverse offering and some fun quirky items

I have been happily bidding, buying, and consigning with MBA for many years. I've watched over the years as they have pretty much cornered the market on fine art. Of course, they handle lots of other types of merchandise. I've always been impressed with the high level of commitment to their trade. They are a smart, hard-working bunch!

The photos online are accurate but it's the fine details that jump out at you in person. Some things look better in person and some, not so much. I was very happy with my purchase and yet, also glad that I was able to see it "live" before I bet the farm. I found MBA employees to be pleasant, kind and helpful. Not at all snooty like some other places. I would definitely recommend this auction house to a friend and follow it myself. It is of course always wise to know the FMV of the item/artist you are bidding on. I noticed afterwards that some pieces went for more than they would have cost in a reputable gallery. However, that's beside the point if it's a piece you love and can't find elsewhere.
