My 30000-carat diamond stolen from my house

★★★★★ John Mckay · Sep 4, 2020

Still Experiencing; optimistic I will spend a fortune.

★★★★★ Isaura Curiel · Feb 13, 2021

Interesting topics tastefully presented

★★★★☆ Roanna K · Nov 4, 2024

Better than most others specialized shopping platforms and probably the best app among the auction houses. Could be more performant.

★★★★★ Donna Schneider · May 4, 2020

I really enjoy shopping for real estate, jewelry, art and a lot more on Sotherbys. The one and only app I ever use to purchase these things for myself!!

★★★★☆ Dhia Mohamed · Jan 21, 2025

Good new design. The old app was terrible to use, but now it's much cleaner and better.

★☆☆☆☆ mark de boer · Sep 4, 2023

Terrible app. Biggest problem is that it is slow. When I open an auction and go to my favorite items I have to wait five seconds to load the favorite items. When I click one favorite item, again I have to wait 5 seconds for it to load. Going back ons step? Against, wait 5 seconds. My internet speed is perfect but this app is really rubbish. Makes it almost impossible to buy an item

★☆☆☆☆ Scott · Feb 27, 2024

An absolute disgrace to the name of Sothebys!! They are no longer the institution they once were but have become a purveyor misinformation, disrespect and fake low quality knockoffs. I have a collection of rare gem quality mineral specimens that I was hoping to auction with them that are worth well over a half million dollars and they wouldn't even give me the time of day. Very sad what they have become and I wouldn't even auction a bag of garbage with them and neither should anyone else.

★★☆☆☆ Moli Luo · Apr 16, 2021

Crashes all the time. When I try to view my bids, app freezes and crashes. Can't copy or send links to others.

★☆☆☆☆ Ashworth Gillian · Sep 7, 2023

The app wouldn't upload any ID. When I called to ask about this I was told the app had technical issues in regard to the ID upload, and to send the ID by email. I did this twice over an hour and received automated responses both times from Sotheby's, and yet when I called to ask about the ID being uploaded, was told my emails hadn't arrived. I couldn't bid without ID, and missed the entire Freddie Mercury auction I wanted to participate in. Incredibly poor for a supposedly elite auction house.
