CTBIDS grew from an idea over 10 years ago by Caring Transitions owners across the country. These owners are carefully managing the treasures and everyday household items for their clients as they downsize or transition to new homes. These items have quality, value, and a history that are a perfect fit for someone else. Our mission was to create a platform where these estate sales are brought to you online. Instead of set pricing, bidding starts at $1. This process allows our bidders to find unique and everyday treasures for a great value. In addition, the repurposing of these belongings will have a positive and lasting impact on the world we all share. CTBIDS is powered by Caring Transitions. Established in 2006, Caring Transitions is the nation’s largest and most trusted organization specializing in downsizing, relocation, estate sales, decluttering, home cleanouts, online auctions, and other services.

Ratings and reviews

absolute worst auction system ever! The app is had issues and won't close images after you zoom in. the auction disappears after you win and there is no way to go back to it to see the pictures of what you won. so if you think something is different or missing.. no way to prove it! didn't tell you up front how much that will cost you. don't even tell you the weight! I won an item for $60, with buyer's premium, taxes, s&h, packing and handling, total was $200 no joke! will never use again!

They use "corporate" rates to ship their items after you won the auction and the rates end up being double and they don't use basic rates. I won a small toy for $8 and they quoted me $18 to ship it!! Someone is getting raked over the coals, whether it's their corporate team or the end user, but something shady is going on in the background. Beware of these deceptive practices before bidding! Also, lots of bugs in the app, it constantly crashes or freezes. The website is easier to use.

Basically the worst app. I keep getting kicked out of app every few seconds. When I do manage to stay in the app it doesn't let you type anything because the keyboard doesn't open. If I do manage to find something I want to look at it will freeze up and not let me go back or click on anything so I have to exit then go back in to start over. Im currently following 1 bid (I wish I had waited now)and then I will be removing and not using this app again.
