The store is nicely laid out and has the feel of an old mercantile store v. a haphazardly thrown together antique store. I'm more of a digger and while there were items I was interested in here at this shop...it definitely appealed more to my gf overall. That's probably a good thing for most people. I just like to get dirty and dusty... I'm not everyone's cup of tea.

We trusted them to handle our father's belongings with care and integrity -- instead, the house and yard were left ransacked, items disappeared without documentation, and there's been zero accountability. I reached out multiple times by phone and email, only to be completely ignored. No explanations, no answers -- just a mailed check and bill of sale that didn't even come close to matching what was taken from the property. At the sale my brother and I held weeks after theirs buyers and neighbors told us later told us the team said unsold items would "just be thrown away," even though we were told they'd be donated. They even tried to sell my father's military identification cards that had been accidentally left in a box. That's beyond careless -- it's disgusting. Their social media videos and ads are a joke, all smiles and polish hiding disorganization, missing items, and a total lack of ethics behind the scenes. If you hire them, be prepared to lose control of your property and get ghosted when you ask questions. This company's behavior shows a complete lack of integrity, accountability, and respect for clients. No family should have to experience this level of exploitation and indifference after trusting someone to handle their loved one's belongings.

Bob completely stopped responding when we had questions or concerns about the service they provided…read morewhen we had to liquidated our Dad's estate. The property was left ransacked. We couldn't understand the reasoning behind the pricing of items. They asked for THREE weeks of advance access to the house to stage and price items. When we saw the aftermath, they had done minimal pricing or staging. The pricing made no sense. Empty containers that were obviously garbage were marked at $2? Large items weren't marked at all. We ended up holding a sale two weeks later, privately. Dozens of people who previously came to the "estate sale" said that it was unorganized and difficult to identify what items were for sale. Several comments were made that people didn't realize that items were available for sale at that time. One person who returned told us they had purchased the barely used California King bed and frame for a really good deal. We found a tag that it had been listed for $150 and marked down to $75 the second day. Our contract with them stated that ANY item sold for more than $50 had to be itemized on our records. There was no listing of this item being sold! The sale ended on a Saturday. The following Tuesday, an employee arrived to arrange for someone to pickup a washer and dryer. We have video of that employee loading a vehicle and the bed with the frame on a trailer. So, they basically took it and sold it claiming it never sold during the sale. We had an agreement, in principle, for them to empty the house after the sale as we didn't want to keep anything that was offered for sale. We got out of that agreement. They HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you do not attend the sale in the contract. Now I understand why. They have a Better Business Bureau rating of F. The organization is highly unprofessional and unethical. They will take advantage of you/your family and it's financially not worth pursuing legal consequences. For people attending their sales, it's obviously a different experience. However, DO NOT contract this company to facilitate the sale of your property/assets. 0/10 - One of the worst businesses I've ever dealt with for any occasion.

I believe the owners buy estates and clear out the household items and furniture. The prices are fair and you can haggle with them. It's not uncommon to walk in and have the staff tell you everything is 50% off due to needing to make room for incoming merchandise. Everything spanning tools, kitchenware, small appliances, knick knacks, collectibles, antiques, to furniture (end tables, chairs, etc)...
