Anyone ever use Heritage Auctions? Is this legit?

I’m so afraid of scammers and phishing emails I want to make sure before clicking anything or responding.

Thanks!

It is absolutely real, and I have both bought and sold coins using their "make an offer" feature.

 

This is a common Heritage activity. You should be able to verify it by going to Heritage's website (coins.ha.com) and sign-in.

Yep, sold a few things that way.

 

Many years ago I won a 1983 no S proof dime in one of their auctions. About six months later I got an email that someone was interested in buying it. So I ended up selling it for a few hundred dollars more than I paid.

 

I'm confused by the "Anyone ever use Heritage Auctions?" question. Did you not purchase this item from a Heritage auction? If you did, the "make offer" thing is automatic unless you opt out of it, and they automatically set an offer price at 50% more than you paid.

 

ya I did purchase it but I thought maybe it’s like how I also use Amazon yet still get fake scam emails pretending to be from Amazon.

 

You will probably see the offer if you go to Heritage's site the old-fashioned way (type the URL in your browser) and login. Not clicking on links in emails when there is an alternative way of accessing an account is always a good practice. That said, I'm not aware of anyone spoofing Heritage. There's still a pretty target-rich environment for Ămąɀöȵ
