Overall very happy with my purchase. The sellers took time to package it very carefully and although I didn't receive a response to reaching out to them, they actually had all the information available and I didn't read it ahead of time. My item came quickly and in perfect condition. Would definitely our base from them again. I'm new to this site, I would tell anyone to read thru the sellers terms thoroughly they often have all the info you need there.

I have not had any reply to my emails about shipping the item that I won. I am giving no stars and I feel at this point the seller is a scam artist. I guess some just aren't trustworthy. Do not buy from this seller. **** UPDATE **** The seller responded and sent me an e-mail after I posted a rating. Their e-mail seemed genuine and not due to the posting. With better communication on their part there would have been no misunderstanding. They have done good and I would consider buying from them in the future.

PixelThrift

Thank you for your initial feedback and especially for taking the time to update your review—we truly appreciate you giving us a second chance. We sincerely apologize for the initial delay in communication regarding your shipment. Getting timely updates is absolutely essential, and we regret that our response time didn't meet your expectations. As a small, two-person family team, we are truly doing our best to handle every order, email, and shipment with care. We were so glad we could connect directly with you to resolve the misunderstanding. **Given the delicacy of this Murano glass order, we needed extra time to ensure it was packaged with the utmost security, which led to an unfortunate delay in our email reply. ** It means the world that you recognized our genuine effort to make things right. We are actively refining our notification systems to ensure prompt, proactive shipping updates for everyone. We appreciate your patience and look forward to delivering a 5-star experience the next time you shop with us.

lamp was listed as mid century, it was something new that they had made the lamp was printed on a machine. I don't trust them will never visit that site again.

PixelThrift

Thank you for the feedback. We understand your concern about authenticity, and we want to assure all customers that we are transparent about our products. The lamp you purchased is part of our line that is 'Designed and assembled by PixelThrift', as explicitly stated in the product description. We design our pieces to capture and celebrate the 'Mid-Century Space Age' aesthetic and spirit, merging those historical influences with modern crafting techniques (like 3D printing for specific parts) to ensure quality and availability. We never claimed this particular piece was a vintage original, but rather a modern homage to that iconic era. We're sorry if this distinction was not clear to you, despite the explicit note on our design and assembly process. We stand by the high quality and unique design of our work.

The item was listed as stained glass was actually a cheap piece of crap that probably bought at the dollar store plus it was dirty, dusty and filled with animal hair. Avoid this seller!

PixelThrift

We’re genuinely surprised by this review. This was a genuine stained glass piece from a high-end estate, cleaned before it ever left our hands. You never reached out or spoke up at pickup — instead, you left it outside and then this review. We stand by our items and our service, and we wish you’d given us a chance to help if there was a real issue!

Your Auction Handbook

Here are the essential details you need to know before bidding with PixelThrift on AuctionNinja.

1. The Goods: Condition & Honesty

Q: Are these items always used?

A: We primarily specialize in vintage, antique, and collectible treasures. However, we occasionally unearth new or like-new items, which will be clearly marked in the description.

Q: How do you describe an item’s condition?

A: We use high-resolution photos and detailed descriptions to point out any obvious flaws, damage, or repairs. For electronics, we state if the item is "Tested and Working". If it looks shiny, it’s because we cleaned it!

2. Payment & The Winning Bid

Q: How quickly must I pay for my items?

A: Your credit card on file with AuctionNinja will be charged within 24 hours of the auction closing. Please ensure your card information is valid and up-to-date to avoid forfeiture of your items.

3. Getting Your Treasure: Pickup & Shipping

Q: Where and when is local pickup?

A: Local pickup takes place at a private residence in Torrington, CT (Litchfield County). The exact address and scheduled time window will be provided to winning bidders after the auction closes and payment is confirmed.

Q: How do I know if an item can be shipped?

A: If an item is eligible for shipping, you will see a small truck icon 🚚 on the listing, and the description will specify "Shipping Available." Items without this icon are for local pickup only. Shipping is processed by PixelThrift and charged separately to your card on file once packaging and postage costs are calculated.

Q: When will my shipped items arrive?

A: Shipping invoices are typically sent 3-5 days after the auction closes. Once paid, items are packed and shipped within 3-5 business days. Our focus is on safe, secure packaging for vintage items, which takes time!
