Dishonest, unprofessional, rude and careless with other people’s money.I consigned over 300 of vintage clothing with Denise Ryan Auction in early July 2022. I lost money on almost everything I consigned with her.She lied about how quickly she’d sell my items to entice me to consign. It was supposed to take two months- over a year later she still hadn’t sold everything.She did not keep an inventory of the items I consigned. She lost items and parts of items. When she did sell items at auction she often described and photographed them incorrectly, which cost me money as they did not achieve the price they should have.The invoices and payments after an auction were often late and incorrect. She crossed out and wrote over the invoices and calculated the payments by hand rather than going with the auction platform invoice printout.After a year I requested she return the unsold items and pay me for a dress she sold and never paid me for. It took three months and I had to contact her over ten times to get her to pay me and return the items.When I finally received them it came as no surprise that I did not receive all of the unsold items, and that two bikinis were returned without the tops. I guess they got lost in her studio. Now they have no resale value. Once again Denise cost me money.I am truly disgusted at the lack of integrity and professionalism.

Ive been purchasing vintage clothing from Denise for awhile now. Ive been selling vintage clothing for over 25 years. When a vintage item comes up at auction it's almost a sure thing it's going to have some kind of issue. Stains rips etc.Ive been reading the reviews here. I f you aren't sure about any item there's a button that allows you to ask questions. Vintage items are usually sold as is. If you aren't sure ask., if you don't it's your own fault. The auctions have plenty of pictures . Ive been satisfied with all my purchases. If I'm not sure I ask..

Beware -Denise Ryan knowingly sells counterfeit items. I have an ongoing credit card dispute for fake luxury goods that she sold as authentic. The woman is a professional swindler!

All my interaction w/Denise Ryan Auctions has been A+ consistently. Would have no problem recommending this company to anyone. Items arrive promptly and always exactly as described. I was curious about the 1 star review left - so I read it. Then l realized that person has never left a single one of her reviews for any business above 1 star. I feel sorry for her, that belittling and demeaning companies is all she appears to do. Maybe she needs some mental health help, if she is always so unhappy and unsatisfied.OK, some businesses are crap, but there are really good ones and they deserve a positive comment too.

Denise Ryan is a great auction house for online bidders like me. Their lot descriptions are accurate and complete. The items I received were exactly as described. They handle shipping in house at a very reasonable price, so you don't have to bother with arranging shipping yourself. It makes things a lot easier. In short, I recommend them without reservation.

I have purchased items from denise for many years and always had a great experience at her auctions. I was so amazed with the great deals that i was getting as well as enjoying the atmosphere that I was in. Her husband and staff have always made me feel like I matter, even when I've not purchased anything. That to me means alot

WARNING - Denise Ryan is a liar and scammer. I purchased more than 1k USD of items from her via Live Auctioneers, and she sent me damaged garbage. She refused to refund or accept a return and blamed the damage on my delivery guy. Her husband wrapped the items and placed them in the delivery guy's van. Unless my delivery guy unwrapped them, took an icepick to the pieces, rewrapped them and then delivered, I can safely say that he is not at fault. Shame on you, Denise Ryan.

The worst ever, they came to my house in Pembroke in 2008.I consigned the entire contents with her( and her daughter who came along).Including hundreds of pieces of vintage clothing and fur coats, 1950 to 1970 decor and furniture worth thousands.She took 2 large box trucks full.She told me some of the rare items would go to auction in New York City.She told me the high amounts my things would sell for...A few weeks later I saw some of my pieces in an antique consignment store in Hooksett ,Including some rare mid-century lamps I personally paired up with vintage 50's shades, they had a $200 price tag on them..She ending up sending me two checks, one for $100 and one for $114.Only after I hounded her, with a note that everything had sold...(One of the mid-century chair's she took cost me $450 just to restore and was worth over $1000.) She is a total scammer and she takes advantage of people.I will never forget how she ripped off my life time of collecting.Broke my heart....Karma comes around Denise....
