Sellers approach the buyer, so you never have to contact a stranger from something you found. Verification gates every offer, a seller can't send one until the check has passed. There are no listings on AuctionNow, so there's nothing to fake and nothing to pay for sight-unseen.

Frequently asked questions about trust and safety.
Deals are arranged and completed directly between buyer and seller. AuctionNow doesn't process payment, hold funds, or take a commission on any deal.
When something goes wrong, we can act on the account, we cannot act on the money.
If something involves a real financial loss or a threat, that's a matter for the police or the relevant regulator, not something AuctionNow can resolve directly.

Contact us and we'll get back to you.
AuctionNow doesn't hold funds for any deal, so we can't issue a refund directly. We can act on the account involved and share records on lawful request, but recovering money isn't something the platform can do.
