I purchased 2 lots of merchandise from the GovLiquidation.com auction site. After winning the auctions, I paid in full for both lots and followed the protocol to pick up the merchandise in Oklahoma City.

I called the pick-up site to schedule a time to confirm and pick up the merchandise. I was told I could repackage the boxes into one box and have my own freight company then pick up the merchandise. I was assured that I could do this, and made sure they knew I was flying from Oregon to do this.

Once there (after buying an airline ticket, renting a car and a hotel room), I was then told by the same woman that I could not repackage the merchandise and that I couldn't even confirm the merchandise was there in completion. Rather, I was told that I would have to have one of their freight companies remove the merchandise after they signed for it. *This is an important piece of their scam.

I flew home and waited to receive the merchandise that I paid for. Upon receiving the merchandise that I purchased through the online Government Liquidation auction, I immediately opened the packaging and took an inventory of the products and noticed a significant amount missing.

I spoke with the Oklahoma site and the freight company. I then filed a dispute with Government Liquidation about both the missing merchandise and the problems with picking up the merchandise and shipping. I filed this dispute twice, and both times were denied resolution.

I spoke with Government Liquidation no less than six times, and each time they shifted blame to me. Their argument was that I (or my freight company) signed for the merchandise and gave up rights.

The hole in their argument lies in the fact that in order to confirm the merchandise purchased, the buyer has to sign off on the merchandise. If there is missing merchandise, no recourse can be taken because it was signed for.

This is a complete sham of an auction company. The public will be the one holding the responsibility of this company's mistakes. There were no apologies for the erroneous comments made to me by the Oklahoma site, for any missing merchandise, or for their making false claims.

I would steer clear of GOVLIQUIDATION.COM at all costs. They WILL short you of your merchandise and hold you responsible for their errors. I have reported them to the Better Business Bureau and have filed a dispute with our credit card company for the amount paid.

WARNING: DO NOT BE SUCKERED AS I WAS INTO BELIEVING YOU WILL RECEIVE WHAT YOU WIN ON THIS AUCTION SITE!!!
