I love that Home Inspirations always mentions the colors of items. My phone showed a light blue blanket which I didn't care for but the listing said it was white. Perfect. The man to whom I gave it loves it. It's on his bed right now.
The silver box is beautiful and pick up was easy-breezy.
Another excellently executed auction. Though Snohomish can be busy on the weekends, the staff work with you on the pick ups.
Condition was not accurately described "MINOR FLAWS IF ANY". In reality, a piece was broken off and there clearly is supposed to be a handle that is missing. Piece is likely relatively new and not antique. Size was not explicitly stated nor any objects shown for scale. Listing seems to be designed to make it appear larger than it is. I was VERY disappointed on pick-up to see how small it was for the starting bid price.
The "13 Wood Lacquer Japanese Serving Trays" I purchased are cheap plastic that you can buy at a hyakuen store. Really uninformed and/or misleading seller. Will never buy from seller again and highly recommend not buying or getting full information ahead of time.
The seller fails to show the detailed wear of the item. Several defects/cracks, which causes the item to wobble back and forth, are missing from description or photos. The item is almost towards the end of life, and is not usable. The item is not eligible for auction from quality perspective.
A photo couldn't do the The French fan justice but I now know Home Inspirations auctions have a high quantity of quality items.
The French Fan is stunning. I can't wait to display it or use it at a special function
Nicolle of Home Inspirations has superb taste. I wouldn't hesitate to buy almost anything from one of her auctions knowing the item(s) will be better in person than the pictures. I've been right every time on this auction site alone.
Also if your computer or phone shows slightly different shades than the pictures you can count on the correct color to be in the extended description. I have relied on those descriptions and though the photo on my phone didn't match, I got exactly what she described and was thrilled.
Everything was ready to be picked up when I arrived. No hunting at al! The owner and assistant were professional and friendly and the photo was exactly like the item. Highly recommend!
