I recently finished working with this company on an estate sale for my in-laws and would HIGHLY…read morerecommend them. My husband, his sister and I were facing moving/removing a massive amount of furniture and household goods on a fairly short timeline (from a rental) which was a daunting, stressful task in our eyes. Clay, Dudley and Lynne made us feel completely comfortable and handled everything for us from unboxing stored items, setting up, pricing, running the sale and arranging for a charity to come fill a truck with what was left. The charity was also just as professional. I've never used an estate sales company before so the first thing I did was to educate myself on what to look for. I attended sales of seven different companies and evaluated them on a whole list of things including 1) greeting customers, 2) good signage, 3) clear and neat tagging, 4) clearly marked stairways for safety, 5) background research to ensure they had been in business at least ten years, etc. I chose the top two (which included Absolute Estate Sales) and interviewed them in person with a big list of questions. You'll find good questions if you research estatesales.net. I was pleasantly surprised by the detailed accounting of each item sold which was a bit complicated since we had items from three families. I will recommend this company to friends and family members facing a downsizing like ours. They took all of the potential stress out of it!

My husband and I met with Lynne and Dudly Collums of Absolute Estate Sales to have them arrange a…read moresale of household furnishings. They met with us in a timely manner, picked dates for the 3 day sale, and signed a contract with my husband. We chose Absolute Estate Sales because of a recommendation from a friend and based on their website. The website clearly explains the sale process and what they will do before, during, and after the sale. We were impressed by the thoroughness that they showed in their explanations. http://www.absoluteestatesales.net/index.php During the contract discussion, Dudly asked us what we wanted done with items that were left from the sale. He said that they had a charity that they work with. We asked that they call the charity to remove unsold items. This was agreed on, but it was not put into the contract. He said that the trash would be bagged and put on the back deck. This was stated in the contract. The Absolute Estate Sale crew came in, marked, and arranged all items. They did an amazing job, since there was a huge amount of furnishings and household items. They took 79 pictures, which they displayed on their website. Their publicity was good. When we drove by the sale, they always had a lot of people there. They took 30% of the proceeds, which seemed reasonable to us and was the agreed upon amount. A check was provided in a timely manner and delivered by registered mail. It cleared, as expected. Overall, we were satisfied with the way our sale was handled by Absolute Estate Sales. They did fulfill all of the terms of the written contract. However, we did have some surprises. According to the website, a sale recap is to be provided. That did not happen, nor was it in the contract. We had expected a cleared out house. It was not. If a charity was called, as Dudly said it would be, we did not see any sign of it, nor were we provided with a donation slip. After the sale we were left with unsold items. We removed about 30 boxes of books and 10 bags of clothing. The clothing had been mostly bagged and piled into the bathtub. A sofa bed was left. Most of the trash was on the deck, and so were two older, but working tvs. They were rained on. There was a small amount of trash scattered about the house and garage. Two doors that were taken off their hinges were still off the hinges. I estimate that we had about 24 man-hours of work to do to completely empty the house and dispose of the household items. Perhaps it was our misunderstanding, but we didn't expect this. I would suggest having EVERYTHING spelled out in the contract. Overall, we were satisfied. I give this company a solid 4 stars. My rating is based on several things. They did a lot of hard work getting ready for the sale and selling our items. I would give them 5 stars for the before and during the sale implementation. After the sale would be about 2 1/2 stars for the lack of follow through. I would be happy to recommend them or to hire them again.

The main problem was he was way too overbooked. He came one day to pack the auction items and didn't get finished removing all items. He never made it back. He then stated on his website that I had changed my mind and the finer items were not going to be there. He was sorry. I didn't change my mind. He just ran out of time. Because of the statement on his website, NO ONE came to the auction. He basically gave my vintage Christmas collection away. Shame on him. I would give him a ZERO RATING !!

We got there about thirty minutes before the action started, and thought we were on time. Turned out, we were the last to drop off our animals, so was also the last goats brought out. When our goats were bought out, they started bidding at $1.50 a pound, and nobody bid on them other than their buyer that buys everything. We left there feeling that we were undersold, just to give their buyer a deal. The next closest auction house was selling at $2.10 a pound, so we lost .65 a pound, or $58.50. Don't get me started on how they love to cancel the auctions. They canceled June, July, and August so far this year.
