The tracking numbers shows up under orders. They also send out an email when the item ships.

My item was shipped before i even paid. I guess I’m
A “big boy” now.

Same here, just not sure how. I think this was only like my 3rd time winning something from them. Maybe I spent too much in the past?

Anyone else still waiting on a tracking number? My echeck cleared on the 21st. I haven't heard anything from them until this morning I got an email asking me to fill out a survey about my recent purchase.

I paid with Paypal on the 19th and my winnings also haven't shipped yet... I tried calling and emailing with no results.

This has to be the worst shipper among all of the major auction houses

So... I would assume unfavorable responses on the survey...

Several states have to pay taxes with Heritage, including Illinois where I live. I had to add an additional 10.5% sales tax, which is fine as I was fully aware of it going into the auction.

My question is: Why isn't that shown in the final sell price? If a guy pays $100K for an item, then they show the buyer's premium but not the additional tax (if there is one), why wouldn't this be reflected in the final sale price? On a final sale of $100K, that's an additional $10,500 (if you're in Chicago).

Still waiting for a tracking number. I wired money last Wednesday morning and no tracking number yet. Its comforting to know other people are in same boat; Heritage is usually so quick with shipping

Tracking number sent to me, finally. I guess between holidays and a huge auction, they were just slow and/were slammed.

I'm not sure how I got on the "nice list" either. I've bought from them here and there (probably about 5 times now), but not sure why my stuff shipped so fast. Very inconsistent w/ what others are reporting. I wonder what put them on the "naughty list"?

got shipping email on Monday. Interesting they changed over to USPS instead of Fedex ground.....

Same with me - I paid same day and no tracking number anywhere or shipping email.

Guess I'm not a "big boy" like some others...

I paid within minutes of getting the invoice and was notified they were going to wait a couple of weeks before they shipped. Only been buying in every auction since 2008 or so and always pay immediately. After calling them they said they would not wait to ship. Guess I will see if this ends up being true.
