This plug-in works great for my non-profit’s auction. Love it! I also bought the list and bulk upload add-ons and love them too. I tried other auction software before I settled on WordPress Auction, which met my needs perfectly.
Even better is the amazing support I received from the company. I had a problem with my install and I received IMMEDIATE response and they told me how to fix it in no time. (It was an error on my end, not the plug-in’s fault.) I have dealt with many tech support departments over the years, and I have never had such prompt, courteous and capable assistance. I’m so grateful and happy to highly recommend this plug-in.

This auction plugin works great. It was easy to install and did everything I needed. I’m a tech novice, so I needed some hand-holding. The customer support is the best I’ve every experienced. Immediate response and personal attention to my questions. Kudos to them.

I used this plugin just recently and the auction went well, but a few improvements would make it better.
1. No one got their notifications of their bids. Neither did the admin. It did work but the subject was gibberish. Once I changed the email option (as advised) it stopped sending anything.
2. There should be a way to download/get a list of all closed auctions when it’s done. I had to type them all out manually.
3. Add an option to show items before bidding opens. In a real life auction, you can walk around a day or so before and check out the items. This auction only shows the items once it is live. I had to create a gallery in order for people to browse the items ahead of time.
It works well though apart from those few points. Thank you.

The programming of the plugin could be better.
There is no way to change the plugin annoyingly capital letter in every sentens.
Furthermore, you can not change the date format or , and .
It is not possibly to translate the plugin 100%. It sucks when different language are mixed together cource bad internationalizing of an plugin.
