Be very careful I visited the Nivå branch today, in order to get an item valued. She starts, sensibly enough, by looking up the retail price for the item, as it is still being sold. She tells me “it sells for kr300 new”. That sounds wrong, so I leave. In the car I Google the item myself, and it sell new for kr3.000, 10x the figure she mentioned. I re-entered the office, in order to request that she check again. She wanted me to look at her screen, which seemed pointless. Then, one of her colleagues says she agrees with me. The price-as-new is kr3.000 online. I was astonished at the unprofessionalism and left promising never to buy or sell anything there again. People, be very careful if you rely on their valuations. It seemed amateurish, as I was able do a better job myself. Sad.

The second time I sold thru Lauritz - AWFUL! NEVER Again! The second time I sold thru Lauritz. The first time it was a real hassle to receive my money for items sold, the second time it is even worse. I am still waiting many months later. They stopped responding. NEVER again! I will have to make the ombudsman aware of these almost fraudulent practices. Or maybe they are close the bankruptcy??? However, very unethical business practices.

Foreign Buyers Stay away...... I purchased a lot of Glassware.. I have set up my account in English.. I come to pick up the lot and I can see there is damage... I tell them that and is told, it is written in Danish and they do not garantee anything that is not written in danish.. as they do not manual translate anymore.. it is done by Google... So all foreign buyers beware... and all Danes that have their account set up to show the description in English... I will follow up, as it can not be legal...

I've read a lot of negative reviews… I've read a lot of negative reviews after I won my bid but have to say it doesn't echo my experience. I bought a good quality bike for relatively cheap. The only downside would be it was difficult to see an option to allow me to pick I up at the auction house but I'm sure there's an option somewhere. Also maybe the hammer price was a little on the expensive side, but overall a very happy pleasant experience. Thanks Lauritz

Trading whilst insolvent EDIT following Lauritz response to this review: I have evidence of the company declaring themselves bankrupt in a Paypal conversation. Apparently 2 days after I made a purchase (and subsequently cancelled with Lauritz' agreement due to shipping 5 times price of the product ordered) they are BANKRUPT. They declared this to me when I had to resort to opening a Paypal case. However, they website is still trading, and taking payments. Fraudulent company, beware.
