I found something good on last Friday, and there was an option as "Buy now" and I did. Paid $487 and purchased that item.

This morning I got an email about refund and cancellation of sale. I guess someone at the Goodwill wanted to buy that item and then cancelled my purchase. Weird beavior

My local store in Colorado Springs stopped doing the online auctions for awhile. They started back up so I thought I would give it a try again. I was the highest budder on two auctions, for records lots. They don't do pickup, surprised, but ok. Received the records two lots but one lot was wrong. The records were Elvis, and one of the records in the missing lot was possibly worth a lot of money. The second auction I won was a keyboard. This was from Delaware and Delaware county. I received it and it was missing the manual and the power supply. I don't buy things without the power supply, because they can be hard to get or really expensive. It really sucks that Goodwill is horrible. They are supposed to be giving people job skills, but they are giving the workers bad business practices that no other employer wants

Ridiculous prices for designer brands and non designer brands. Online purses, shoes, and clothes are filthy, and over worn. How can this “Non Profit Organization” became such a lucrative and greedy business. This is absolutely ridiculous.

The ads on ShopGoodwill are becoming disruptive to the user experience.

They block the items listed and interfere with the bidding process.

Its becoming worse and worse to the point as a MAJOR buyer on the platform, I am giving up.
Its very tacky for ShopGoodwill to actually use ads.

Whoever came up with the idea to have ads pop up at the bottom of the screen is stupid. Half of the time you can’t hit the button to bid because it’s covered up by an ad that you can’t get by, move, or shrink. I’ve lost several items like this.

I just won an auction from the Wilmington DE auction location and after 10 days I messaged them to find out the item I won was missing and several days later of back and forth was issued a refund. Real professional organization Goodwill.

FRAUD ALERT!!!!! I signed up for an account but did not put my credit card info in until I was ready to bid. A CONTINUE button was coming up after about every fifth item I scrolled past, and I thought it was to continue setting up my account. It wanted my info again to access my account, then took me to another site to enter my charge card info. After I entered that, it asked me which subscription level I wanted, with the lowest amount being over $70! I realized there was a problem and exited the page. It took a lot of work to find the Real place on shopGoodwill to enter the card info. I also changed my password. Once done, I checked my charge card and found that, sure enough, there was a $70 RECURRING charge on it. Reported as Fraud, and cancelled the card. What a pain! Goodwill should be ASHAMED that they allow a scam company like this to use their website. What the F* are they thinking? They proclaim that they help the disabled, but have no issues with doing unethical things that ruin their reputation and lose customers.

Items get bid up to higher than ebay auctions but then a few days after the sale the item shows up again. Shill bidding at its finest. Goodwill is running a shill bidding market.

First off I give alot to goodwill. I recently got onto the auctions on shopgoodwill.com at an employees suggestion. I have gotten several things but then I realized I'm paying so much in handling fees. I only buy local where I can pick up. I bought 3 different items at 7.99 each but each one had a handling fee of 4.00 which is half the cost of the items. So instead of paying $24, I'm paying $36 for everything. Its absolutely ridiculous and incredibly greedy. The site is super frustrating and not easy to navigate without having to constantly go back and start over. There is no reason you should have so many handling fees especially with multiple wins/orders. I expect better from you. Get it together and show some GOODWILL!!!!

The navigation process freezes up as you try to use or change categories on the site. I wanted to look at leather bound classic books except the site didn't provide pictures 99% of the time.

Here's the problem: Goodwill needs to hire a large number of staff to run their 24/7 online auction, but the number of knowledgeable staff is insufficient to run a top-notch, continuous online auction. The items they photograph are not well represented, from the images to the descriptions. Often, they sell damaged items, take photographs that misrepresent, and mislead through descriptions.

Over two years, I purchased regularly through the online auction. When an item was damaged, they would have numerous excuses for not accepting a return. More often than not, their favorite was "Thank you for donating to Goodwill," inferring I wasn't purchasing an undamaged item, I was donating $$ to them. I even had an item that was damaged during a pick-up, and they admitted it was damaged on the way out the door. Again, "Thank you for your donation."

When you donate your items to Goodwill, they go to a central processing center where they may be auctioned or redistributed to stores that need certain items. You may think you are giving to your community, but what is happening is that you are feeding a large "non-profit" with a net worth of $93,000,000. So, while they may be growing to provide programs, jobs, etc. They are also an organization that doesn't believe they have customers, only donors.

And, this is why you can't find the same quality goods in their stores; it goes to an online auction that costs the consumer even more. Those who show in their brick-and-mortar stores are getting the leftovers. The way they are serving the community is costing it more and more each year. While the prices for goods skyrocket, the money in the bank for those in need remains to be seen. The poor remain poor, and the price of resale items just goes up. The online auction makes many donations unaffordable.

Goodwill can't have it all and be reputable. Either they are running a reputable online auction, or they are asking for monetary donations. Or, they are running a quality brick-and-mortar that offers their best goods at a fair price. This is the problem. Currently, they are taking a few amazing donations and maximizing the profit, but mostly selling mediocre goods, pumping up the price through an auction platform, and making the public pay for their 'mistakes', all from the point of view that a purchase is also a donation. The rest of the tired, poor quality goods go to the many locations around the world, and to your very neighborhoods.

Goodwill doesn't care about their customers. Please! Think twice. Think three times before buying through their online auction.

customer service gives you the run around and then tries to guilt trip you to remind you they help people with their sales. Just be aware when you shop at their on-line or auctions site that if you have a damaged shipment or incorrect items, you will spend a lot of time taking photos of the damaged items, packing and outside of the shipping box (because they want to blame the delivery service when they packaged items incorrectly). Their customer service needs an upgrade for sure

Shipping and handling cost on a 6oz package. Handling is $5.99 (i was ok with that) but the shipping alone is 19.88 by ups ground. Goodwill Industries of Sacramento Valley has no idea what they're doing when it comes to shipping or the are purposely overcharging.

They are honest . They are selling the same stuff every overpriced retailer is. I always check shopgoodwill first. Its worth it.

I love shopping at goodwill stores. The problem, they don't respond to calls or emails so if you have a problem your stuck. It can take weeks for them to be shipped NEVER timely. SHIPPING costs their making a profit. You can buy multiple items there to combine to save money they always leave something out or don't honor so if you think your bundling it may not work. If you get a past due even though it's their fault. So I'm on the fence. Also found on ebay check first you can save alot of money.

They allow FedEx to rip of their customers with the most outrageous shipping charges. As the contractor of FedEx it is their responsibility to stop this.

I bid on some shoes. Was the only bidder, just got a notification I've been outbid. So I try to go to the website, guess what it's unavailable due to maintenance!!!! How convenient. This isn't the 1st time they've pulled this crap. I also feel the prices for shipping are ridiculous. The item will cost say $5, shipping will cost $20. They say something weighs a certain weight & then add a few pounds. So basically they are lying! And don't get me started on the secret bids or whatever they're called. That's a bunch of b.s. What is really going on? What is there to hide? Makes me think there's someone up to no good. And the actual store's prices are highway robbery. I love how they sell 2 piece outfits, each piece separately. Bathing suits too. Surprised they don't do it with the shoes too. Hahaha. And the color of the day tags, whatever the color i NEVER can find that color. Overall Goodwill sucks

I like Shopgoodwill.com, I do. I read the bad reviews and continue to shop but, with caution. However, I won a bid on a piece of art that, according to Shopgoodwill's measurements and weight, felt the shipping would be reasonable. I had doubts about the actual weight but, I really wanted the art. (The item was very inexpensive and I was the only bidder.) Before paying I found Goodwill's FedEx ground rate (from Wash. State to NC) to be an exhoribant $64.77 - not including handling at $3.00 or cost of art at $7.50. Even in these financial times I suspected the charge was much too high and I let them know. I received no response. I called FedEx and based on Goodwill's information, the charge for FedEx ground is $26.00. I asked him to double-check, he agreed. Same cost. I contacted Goodwill and found I'd been blocked after my initial email. If there is an element of integrity, at the very least, engage the buyer, no matter the outcome. Goodwill stands behind a hoard of legalese. In my case, I feel it's a flagrant overcharge for shipping. There is little reason for a well-established charitable institution to give some shoppers the appearance of dishonesty. Unfortuntely, even with the reems of legalese, it's not enough to hide what appear to be questionable practices.

Dishonest . jack asses if you want to get ripped off for complete crap this is the place for you, when bidding on an auction even though you were the high bidder they won’t give you the item. they give it to the person right below you simply because they didn’t like a comment you left about their shady practices. incompetent unprofessional waste of

Never got the item I ordered, but FedEx says it was delivered, and only the shipper can file a claim for a lost package, so I’m just out of luck. I didn’t receive tracking information from the shipper until I followed up weeks after it was apparently sent, so I didn’t know it was missing. Poor communication, poor value, would not buy anything here again.
