This online auction service stole my $400 deposit! I made a deposit in order to bid on salvaged vehicles. After a few unsuccessful bids I requested a refund in accordance with the site guidelines. I received an email confirming my refund request and said to wait 6-8 weeks to process. Credit card refunds can be done immediately but this is beside the point. As time passed, I tried to call but all I get is a voice mailbox full message. Eventually someone responded to my email and told me to dispute charges with my credit card company. Card disputes can only be made within 90 days of purchase. I had the account open for a month, then they strung me along with the refund period while this time expired. DO NOT do business with this company!

i will share my experience with www.salvageworld.net they are they are scamming you
I bid on Mercedes benz car for 13k then i received call from salvageworld.com ask me to increase my bid to 16800$ i reject and i told him this is my maximum he told me i will try maybe they will reject this offer we can try on other car i said fine, after 1 hour i received an email says

.We apologize for any inconvenience. Unfortunately, we were unable to acquire the 2007 MERCEDES-BENZ R350 R CLA that you have bid on at this Insurance Auction. The Insurance Auction did not accept your offer (it was either too low, or they accepted an offer from another company other than Salvage World). Your current funds will remain in your account and you may use those funds towards your next purchase!...

after 4 hours i receive emails

We are pleased to inform you that we have successfully acquired the following vehicle on your behalf: 2007 MERCEDES-BENZ R350 R CLA!
