I started visiting estate sales approximately a year ago after losing my job of 20 years. Having…read morealways loved thrifting I hoped I could survive in the business and not have to start a new corporate job in my 50's. I quickly learned not all estate sales companies are the same. Venzor and their employees stood out to me immediately! They were all so kind and helpful. (Not going to name name's because I don't know all of them, but you are ALL amazing) They were Patient when needed (when I was struggling with something) as I was learning the in's and outs of estate sales. I learned that I loved the bundling process because I felt like I wasn't being nickel and dimed over every tiny thing like at some sales. I could have honest and fair conversations about prices without being ridiculed or snapped at. I always walked away from their sales feeling like I purchased some great things for a fair price. I never really thought about writing a review until the last 2 Days. My wife and I spent hours at their sale in Hermosa and had a blast! The ladies working there were an amazing. They were all working so hard and being so incredibly kind and helpful. We laughed and enjoyed the digging and left with a huge pile of treasure. I will ALWAYS prioritize VENZOR when looking for my next sale. Thank you Peter and Staff for all your hard work!

This is one of the most unprofessional companies I have encountered in a long while. I shop estate…read moresales not only in California but all around the country. I attended one of this company's sales today in Belmont Shore. They listed a start time of 8am. As we do, most of the professional resellers were there before sunrise to put names on the list. This list was supposed to be out at 6am. This is done to have first purchase opportunity for desirable inventory. No one from this company arrived up until about 6:45. Fortunately the early birds collectively agreed to start a list of our own, which the company did agree to honor. They said that they do not start their sales until 9am and that their ad for the sale was incorrect. They said they needed time to set up before they opened the doors. This frankly should have only taken 10 or 15 minutes had they properly prepped this sale prior to the opening of the sale. They were not overly apologetic, just matter of fact about this oversight. This is a disrespectful of their shoppers time. I understand their first priority is to the client. However, they would do a better job for their client if they were organized, on time, and prepared with some idea and knowledge of pricing. They have you bundle your items then give you a "bundle" price. The "bundle" price model is fine if the price is fair to both parties. The "bundle" price should not be higher than retail pricing. I saw so many people leave things behind because the prices quoted were not fair market value. This is a disservice to their client. Had they priced fairly on day one, they would likely have moved more inventory rather then having to subsequently discount it well below fair market value on the subsequent sales days. Again - not good for their client. Also worth mentioning is they let one of their regular shoppers in about 10 minutes early before the sale started to shop. I understand companies rewarding their most loyal customers by letting them shop presale. But arrange to do that the day prior, not the morning of the sale when others arrived significantly earlier than their VIP customer. I guarantee you that their VIP did not pay up for the items she was allowed to purchase before the sale opened. Not fair to the customers who arrived earlier than this customer, or more importantly to the client. There are literally a million estate sales companies out there. If you are searching for a company to host your estate sale - you'd probably be better served by contracting with a more professional company that understands appraisal and how to balance and maximize the sales experience for both the client and the shopper.

I WOULD NEVER PATRONIZE THIS COMPANY, NOR WOULD I EVER RECOMMEND THEIR SERVICES!…read more I am an antique and vintage dealer and have been for over 20 years. With that I have been to countless estates sales but NEVER have I been treated the way I was today. I attended the sale located at 25379 Pine Creek Lane on Sunday, April 21, 2024. There was an employee of Grasons who was shouting out as people entered that everything was 50% off. I looked around for all of about 2 minutes and then I went up to her and asked if items were tagged. She immediately and very rudely cut me off and told me everything is for sale. I replied, "I understand. Are things tagged?" (Since things are "50% off" I would like to know what the original price is.) Even more rudely than before, she gives me a dirty look and says, "there are a million items here and we only had 3 days to get ready!" Other patrons looked at me like I can't believe she just did that to you. I promptly left. If this is how your company treats people, you do not deserve anyone's business. I will be posting this to Yelp as well as a consumer beware. I'm sure the sellers would be horrified at how this is being handled on their behalf. This blonde haired woman working for you deserves to be fired immediately! If she is a franchisee, it needs to be revoked!

What really sets them apart, though, is their communication. They actually respond to questions via text and are always friendly, helpful, and easy to reach. That might sound like a small thing, but anyone who regularly goes to estate sales knows how many companies simply don't respond to messages at all! Teri and Diana make everything so easy. And on top of being professional and organized, they are just SO much fun! They're warm, welcoming, friendly, and always seem happy to see you. There's such a great atmosphere at their sales, and you can tell they genuinely care about both their clients and their customers. I imagine running estate sales is very difficult when the public are competitive or just plain rude and they interact with people with such grace. Bravo! I'm always happy when I see that Integrity First is running a sale because I know it will be organized, clearly priced, easy to communicate about, and there will definitely be quality items! Teri and Diana are an absolute pleasure to deal with. I can't recommend Integrity First Sales highly enough. Five stars all the way!

I've attended estate sales from a lot of the major estate sale companies throughout San Diego,…read moreOrange County, and Los Angeles, and Integrity First Sales has become my favorite. As a shopper, it's easy to see why their sales stand out: warm welcomes, genuine enthusiasm for each sale, fair pricing, beautiful staging, great photography and social media, and a fun environment that makes people want to come back. I've been on both sides of the estate sale process -- as a shopper, and also helping deal with a family estate -- and I can honestly say I would recommend them both to families looking for someone trustworthy to handle a sale and shoppers looking for beautiful, interesting finds. I've been going to their sales for over a year now, probably at least a dozen of them, and I've spent many thousands of dollars there on everything from antiques and collectibles to things I just needed around the house. Diana and Teri are sisters and co-owners, and their family is involved too -- their mom Judith and Teri's daughter Antonia. It really does feel like a family-run business in the best way. They are warm, hardworking, organized, honest, and very good at what they do. Their pricing is fair, and the environment is fun to shop. They do price some of the more unique or high-quality items on the higher side at first, but that makes sense to me. Those pieces deserve a chance to bring a strong price, especially on day one, and like most estate sales, pricing may be adjusted later if something hasn't sold. One of the things I love most is that they seem to care about the story behind the home. When it makes sense, they honor the person who lived there and collected those things over a lifetime. That part really matters to me. Their sales can get very busy, and I've personally watched them deal with big crowds, pressure, and people who are not always behaving well. They still manage to keep things moving, keep it fair, and keep the mood fun. Honestly, "grace under pressure" is the phrase that comes to mind because that is how they all are. I especially want to mention Antonia because I've seen her at the jewelry counter many times, and that is probably one of the most intense spots at any estate sale. People can get pushy and competitive around jewelry and valuables. I've always seen her be firm, organized, fair, and kind, even when customers were clearly out of line. There is a difference between being rude and holding boundaries in a chaotic environment. Another thing worth mentioning is that they have a great reputation. I hear good things about them not just from shoppers, but even from people who work in the estate sale world, which says a lot. Whether you are hiring someone to run a sale or just shopping their sales, I think Integrity First Sales is one of the best. They have earned my trust, my repeat business, and my enthusiastic recommendation.

Lisa and Mike promptly showed up and coordinated the clearing-out. Since I live out of the country, I relied on them to handle the entire business unsupervised. On the appointed day, they took care of everything; what's more, they scrupulously identified not only the antiques my mother was concerned about, but also a couple of other items that were potentially of value, and took all these items for sale on consignment as promised. Friendly, pleasant to deal with, and honest from start to finish. The amount of money they charge is altogether reasonable given the tremendous amount of work involved. Postscript: After completing the work, they sent me over thirty clear, excellent photos of the clean house. This additional, thoughtful service provided me tremendously needed closure and peace of mind. What's more, they discovered two CHECKBOOKS that I had completely missed.
