"Yes there’s issues with missing parts"

Yes there’s issues with missing parts, or some items missing altogether - up to 10%. It’s clearly explained so stop moaning. What it doesn’t tell you is the amounts they’re taking in overpayment - and you can’t spot. It - check all bidding histories then at least you’ll have a legit complaint and an invite to join proceedings and your money reclaimed

"Customer service is terrible"

Customer service is terrible. I complained about an issue with the items I received as they were missing crucial components for the functionality of the item but they decided to "escalate" this issue and ignored me afterwards. On top of that they auto close issues and send you an email and ask for your rating without even resolving anything.

"Jobalots: A Profitable Gamble When You Know the Game"

It seems that many negative reviews for Jobalots come from people unfamiliar with how this auction site works. I primarily purchase pallets, selling on most of the items I receive. Across my last 50 pallets, I’ve achieved an average return on investment of 98.2%. Some pallets have been outstanding, delivering up to 472% ROI, while others have dipped as low as -79% ROI. However, the risks are clearly outlined by Jobalots, and of those 50 pallets, 43 have been profitable. Six still have plenty of items left to sell, with just one being a genuine letdown.

Buying returns, liquidated stock, and overstock is inherently a gamble. If you carefully read the terms, you’ll understand what you’re signing up for. Individual items can be a bigger risk, but pallets have consistently delivered solid results when I bid smartly. Only once was a pallet missing significant items, and Jobalots quickly refunded me.

Delivery has generally been prompt, and the company they partner with, H&M Distribution, has been excellent.

Overall, I’m really pleased with Jobalots. It’s enabled me to build a self-employed setup that I thoroughly enjoy.

"Jobalots taking thousands off of customers due to 'computer glitch?'"

PLEASE NOTE: FINALLY RECEIVED BIDDING HISTORY GOING BACK TO NOVEMBER LAST YEAR (DESPITE CALLS FOR FULL HISTORY!?!) THE END RESULT IS OVER £840 IN DUPPLICATE BID CHARGES MADE JUST TO MY ACCOUNT - WHEN ARE YOU PEOPLE GOING TO WAKE UP! READ YOUR BIDDING HISTORIES!!!!!
Here's why:
So I was a long-term, loyal, customer of Jobalots until very recently. I have nothing to say about the products or conditions, as this is all clearly explained prior to signing up. What I do have an issue with, however, is the fact that their bidding system allows for multiple bids from the same person. I have hundreds of screenshots of where this has happened. Jobalots has a responsibility to its customers to ensure safeguards are in place to stop Jobalots from collecting monies above and beyond what the customer wants to spend. So I contacted them directly to make them aware, and what was their response to me? To ban me from the site and block my email to stop me from informing others on their forums - something I encourage any and everybody to do who has an account with them. As I've stated, is real, it's happened, and it continues to happen. This week has seen the summoning of Mr. Jack Lear (CEO of Jobalots) to court to give a defence of this in public. This will be some time from now, but will have to happen; he has refused to supply a full and readable (though retracted) bidding history, which would enable me to work out not only how much they have taken above and beyond from me, but also others out there. Jobalots initially responded by saying that they don't have access to them after their recent site changes, then cited privacy concerns. Well, Im taking them to court and I can assure you beyond doubt that if you have been a long-term customer of Jobalots, then they've had their 'hand in your other pocket' for some time. It happens so frequently that I guarantee you you have fallen victim to this also, and you will be entitled to get your money back.

Please note the lack of a response from job slots - speaks volumes! And matey with the review about the returns that can be made from purchasing there should perhaps check his own bidding histories before giving them such a positive

" Urgent Complaint – Missing Items"

Urgent Complaint – Missing Items

Dear Jobalots.com,

I placed an order on March 17 with priority shipping, yet my package did not arrive until March 26—later than standard delivery. Upon opening the package, I was disappointed to find that several projectors were missing.

After reaching out to Jobalots Support, they confirmed in writing that there was a stock error and that these projectors were never actually available. However, I was never informed of this, even though my payment was accepted in full. I only became aware of the issue when I received a half-empty package.

Selling out-of-stock products without notifying customers is misleading and may violate consumer protection laws. I kindly request an immediate resolution to this matter.

Best regards,

"Placed 2 orders, week later not dispatched "

Placed 2 orders, 1st 15/3/25 2nd 16/3/25, I paid for priority shipping and my items have still not been dispatched for either order, keep getting told they are waiting for the tracking numbers with yodel, it’s now the 22/3/25 and now customer service are just not replying to my emails, I’ve purchased hundreds and hundreds from them, since they had their old website etc, really gone downhill lately!

STILL WAITING for my 3 PRIORITY orders to even be dispatched! Received an email today from Alodia in jobalots “customer service’’ asking to confirm my address is
ALEEA CRISANEI Nr 14, Cartier Miorita Combinat
Brasov, Fagaras
RO 505200.
No this is not my name or address, this address isn’t even in the UK, it’s in HUNGARY!! looked at my addresses on my jobalots account to confirm my address is actually where I live, “Which it is mind’’
This is just getting out of control now with this website, I actually think it has become too much for them to handle, maybe their success is going to be their downfall! I WANT MY ORDERS JOBALOTS! Or I’ll be going through trading standards like a few other reviewers on here also!!

"Was almost put off by the negative…"

Was almost put off by the negative reviews however I’m reviewing on my own experience. Fast prompt customer service replies order came in under a week all items as described ok one set of led light had no connection power supply and no plug for something else but had spares and everything worked perfectly you need to give this company a chance on your own experience as you can be put off by the reviews but just have fun with it and don’t expect everything to be brand new and you will enjoy buying from here I’m looking forward to continuing my business with jobalots.
