We go to estate sales frequently. Most businesses are run well, and many have minor things that…read moreirritate buyers. When you go frequently, you experience these irritations. Estate sellers work hard, so I don't write negative reviews on them for things like pricing, hold table chaos, and other things. I just remember them if it's a pattern, and then choose to not go to their sales. I do want to highlight the ones who stand out though! We have had great experiences at the sales run by Burns Estate Liquidators. Here are some thoughts: Hold Tables: Multiple and well "guarded". Sold Cards: Before entering, staff explained how sold cards worked. There was no confusion on how to mark larger items you wanted to buy. Pricing: Day 1 pricing was fine. Estate sellers are trying to make money for the family and for the business. Some companies take that to the extreme. They forget they're also trying to encourage buyers to come and buy. Burns seemed to keep that three-pronged understanding at the forefront. Price Tags: Every item had a price tag. Bulk items had very clear signs with pricing. If you've been to these sales, you know how important knowing pricing is, without having to constantly find someone. Staffing: Six people ran a very large and involved sales like a streamlined machine. We have been impressed. This is a very business-savvy company, who clearly keeps their brand protection in mind when working. Other companies lose site of that sometimes. Live Streamers: Many estate sale companies are allowing live streamers to set up camp inside a home and have live auctions during the sale. It is absolutely annoying and seems disrespectful to the family. We haven't seen this at a Burns sale yet. We've been very pleased with Burns' sales and I hope this review helps families who are looking for a company, as well as buyers at future sales.

Very nice, professional and I was able to get an appraisal over the phone. Save me time, and money.read more

Having had to put my mum in memory care and having our family home with over 55 years of collectibles and 'stuff' inside, was incredibly daunting for me. I need to sell the house to pay for my mum's care, but getting to that point was overwhelming to me. Heather is patient, kind, professional, and extremely organized. She and her crew got the estate sale prepped in one day and in one weekend, most all of the contents in the home were sold. Wow! She also helped to arrange another company that she partners with to do a clear-out of what was left, including some heavy furniture. I was left with a totally cleared out home and extra money in my pocket to put towards fixing up the home to sell. What an amazing company in a difficult time of need. A true godsend and I couldn't be more grateful. Thank you Heather and River City Liquidators!!!

Both times I've been here same two guys working both very friendly and work hard to get you the items you won. I recently won a massage chair that was sealed and paid 1/3 of the retail price and it works perfectly. Info they posted about chair was very helpful and accurate. Recently they have been posting boxes full of packaged food and candy. I bought two boxes full of gum and candy and it would be really nice if they took a few pics of the expiration date. My two boxes had about 20 different items and could have took pics of the items still in code there were 3 types of candy that were. Most boxes only have 1 or a few items and for those seeing that date would be very helpful. I'm guessing almost everything the code has expired but still nice to know if it expired last month or 3 yrs ago.

There are several BidRL locations in the Sacramento area but this is the one I frequent the most. I first heard about BidRL many years ago when picking up an outdoor umbrella stand from a seller on Facebook Marketplace. I commented to her that I saw a lot of the same umbrella stands for sale by several other sellers. She nodded knowingly and then said, "BidRL." I remember taking a peek at the website at the time but being too busy to shop/scroll. Fast forward many years later and I've come to discover (here's a secret, Yelpers!) that you can save tons of money shopping on BidRL. (You only come to this location after you've won the item auction). There are no returns so bid carefully. I'm pretty amazed at how much some items are bid up to (like Dyson vacuums, robot vacuums, appliances, etc) because I wouldn't want to risk a huge amount of money on the item, but perhaps those bidders have come to the location, previewed the item to make sure it works, and then bid. Basically they're a liquidation company that gets pallets of Amazon, Costco, Target and other company's returns or discontinued items. You know when you buy something at Amazon, Target or Costco and then change your mind and return it? The store doesn't put it back on the shelf--they just liquidate it and send it to companies like this to do as they please with it. Some of their stock goes to BidRL (online bidding), some go to their That's Cheap stores and some go to their Falling Prices stores (which are awesome also, but just super crowded). I'm not sure how they decide which items go where but sometimes I'll see the same items at BidRL and Falling Prices. Sometimes the items are brand new and sealed. Sometimes they're opened like a pack of socks and missing a pair. Sometimes it'll be a piece of furniture that the customer returns because one piece of wood has a dent. You never know. But this location is pretty good at taking photos of multiple angles and disclosing potential flaws (that they notice at a cursory glance, since they don't spend too long on each item). You'll notice some items on their website say "Pieces may be missing!" I like the fair warning. :) But if you get the item at a low price, often you can get replacement pieces at your local Home Depot or Lowe's. They are closed Sunday and Monday and have strict rules about picking up items before deadlines. Over the last few years, I've gotten some really nice items, and also some broken items. Fortunately I don't pay a lot for each item, so I don't feel so bad if I just have to toss it. My in-laws just moved into a new house and I was able to furnish a couple bedrooms with brand new items I got on BidRL. They were pretty amazed at the prices!
