I cannot say enough good things about Remember When Estate Sale Company. During a very emotional time dealing with multiple collections from my deceased mother's estate, they handled everything with such professionalism, care, and respect. Not only were the owners wonderful to work with, but every single worker on their team was friendly, compassionate, and hardworking. Their knowledge and experience made the entire process so much easier and less overwhelming for our family. They were organized, honest, easy to communicate with, and truly went above and beyond to help us through a difficult situation. I highly recommend Remember When Estate Sale Company to anyone needing estate sale services. read more

Love these estate sales, always my favorite to shop! They have plenty of people working who are always kind and ready to help you if needed. They are fair with pricing and it's always well organized. I love how they put a ton of photos and information on the posting and they update as items sell! I appreciate that so much, leaves a lot of the guessing out of shopping a sale. They always remember a face and quickly learn your name if your a repeat customer! Every time I go I hear them call customers by name! They genuinely seem excited to see you and that is impressive in this business! read more

I changed ny mind about purchasing items because pricing was unclear and nonsensical. Don't advertise that everything NOT marked is a dollar and then charge $6 for a set of 6 (in its box of 6, not marked otherwise) and be angry when I decline the pricing. I was scolded by both the owners when I declined. Y'all can price however you want, but a customer can also change their mind. There were a few other things, but not worth my time listing them. My first and last time shopping with this company. read more

UPDATED AGAIN****** I never said they didn't apologize. When we arrived there was a kind gentleman that was apologetic and had a nice discussion with us. We even purchased a couple small items and left. The problem here is it should have been left alone at that. However it appears someone went home and saw the reviews and comments left on Facebook and then blocked me from their Facebook, removed my review from Facebook and continued to take it further by texting me again at 10pm at night. It's hostile behavior. And it's very clear from seeing my reviews and the texts attached now miraculously they have 5 star reviews and someone again attacking me. All because this business that should be professional went home and got in their feels after reading my reviews that were honest. Please stop attacking me and being hostile. As we watch them continue to rally their friends to up their 5 star fake ratings. ***UPDATED**** They had the audacity to text me at 10pm to tell me the exact response they listed here on this review. Telling me the back story has nothing to do with why they didn't text not only me but others the info for the sale. Facebook where I tried to reach out the day of the sale others commented saying they didn't receive the info as well they have since blocked me. Google review they have others listing 5 star reviews now to push mine down. They offered no options as stated. Not any. Nothing was offered. We weren't rude either. At no time did anyone ask us to leave if anything an older gentleman was making jokes with me and another older gentleman was very apologetic. There was a rude lady handling the cash but again we weren't rude to her. We were respectful and kind. The question here is I obviously struck a nerve to have this company send me texts at 10pm and block me on Facebook for leaving a review and factual events that took place. So I repeat please do your research before doing business with them. Very unprofessional to text me at 10pm when I never texted them anything more than what the number was for .. asking for a time slot with info. read more

See all

Absolutely Love Remember When! David and Karen are simply the best. Every experience I've had with Remember When has been fantastic. They strike that rare balance of being completely professional while still warm, personable, and welcoming. Their estate sales are always organized, thoughtfully curated, and full of amazing treasures--there's always something unique to discover! You can tell they put care into every detail, and it makes shopping with them a true pleasure. Highly recommend to anyone looking for quality items and a great experience from start to finish. read more

My second visit to an Estate Sale was a sale managed by Remember When. Cody and Amanda were so nice with any questions that I had. The sale was very organized and I especially loved Cody's speech to us shoppers before the sale started-Respect the home, the homeowner's items and the employees. I have worked for YEARS in Customer Service and Remember When sets the bar of how Estate Selling should be experienced. What a fantastic Team and Company! read more

Joined a friend Saturday at an estate sale held by remember when - ridiculous pricing and horrible customer service.

Rope a dope sales ploy , showed up to purchase vehicle which was main page of there webpage for the estate sale , start of sale after waiting 45 minutes in line and traveling over half an hour to see vehicle , sales person stated on porch to customers in line , oh by the way we have a bid from covert Cadillac for over 20k so we're starting from there , funny thing is I didn't see covert at the sale !!!!! read more

This company wasted my time and money. I attended an estate sales yesterday and was completely let down. From a lack of communication and overpriced items. Wish I could leave a zero. read more

6/19/25 Unfortunately, this was the first and worst estate sale we've ever been to with this company (we've been to plenty of other estate sales, but this was our first time with Remember When). It was hot, unorganized, and crowded ( granted, we knew it was the first day of the estate sale and understood that first days can be a bit more crowded than half-sale days) Online, it stated that it would open around 10 AM, so our family arrived around 9:45 AM, knowing there would always be a line at the start. However, what we did not expect was the 1 hour and 30 minute wait in line just to get into the house. They were letting in only a few people at a time ( 2-6), but it seemed that no one was really coming out, and any time people would come out or in, they would slam the door pretty hard in people's faces. It was hot, people were sweaty, and complaining. One of the families in front of us asked one of the employees if they could get some air, water, or anything like that since it was so hot, but they just told them to wait a bit more, that they would let them inside soon ( the mother had 2 kids with her) . We could have left within that time frame, but we kept reminding ourselves that we were so close to finally seeing if there was anything inside. Once we finally got inside, we looked around and saw the prices. Some things were priced fair, but other items were priced way high, like a Gucci box ( it was empty) for around $25- $30. I gathered 2 mugs, a small leather notebook, and was ready to check out. In the living room, I found the end of the line, but after 10 minutes, the line barely moved, and I realized why it was taking people so long to leave the house with their things. The line not only started in the living room, but it also went around a small room next to the front door then you were able to check out where there was only 1 cashier. At that point, I was tired, my family went to go sit in the car, and there were way too many people that I decided to put my items back and leave. It's one thing to wait in line to get into the house, but it was frustrating to wait again in another line just to check out the few items everyone had. read more

Remember When Estate Sales is the BEST in the Business! I follow them to every Estate Sale they have. They are kind, professional, very organized and priced very well. You can tell they truly care about the families they are helping with the Estate Sale. I've been very impressed with their professionalism and ability to organize massive sales. Great Job Team! Keep up the excellent work! It's fun to come to your events. Thank you so much. read more

Remember When ran our estate sale a couple of week ago and I can honestly say that we were more than pleased with their operation and the entire Remember When team were friendly and very knowledgeable. We were overwhelmed with the mountain of items we had in the house but Amanda, Cody and team took charge and made this a worry free experience for us. We had several friends and neighbors that attend the sale and they all gave the team 5 stars for how they ran the sale and how friendly they all were. I highly recommend Remember When if you find yourself in need of this kind of service. Thanks, Rory and Linda read more

I arrived about 30 mins after the sale started and there were about 60 people waiting in line outside. I waited for about 30 mins so it wasn't too bad. The staff was nice..but the pricing? Outrageous! I brought my son and he kept asking for certain toys but I had to say no because they were way too expensive for being old, used toys. Stuffed animals were $10 for a normal size stuffed animal with a stain on it. There was a box of small toys and we got 3 toys and I assumed they would be $1 each and they were $4 each?? Just everything I looked at was way too much. I sat everything I was thinking of buying on the holding shelf and was going to go back and ask how much each item was, but when I came to get my stuff the lady had already added up everything so I wasn't sure what she charged for each item. She charged way too much on the items that weren't priced but I just didn't want to deal with it because it was so busy and crazy so I just paid it. When I went to go checkout, a customer in front of me was getting her things added up and the lady tried to charge her $8 for a flimsy old, clearly used foldable fabric box. It should have been a dollar. That customer ended up putting most of her stuff back because she couldn't believe the prices either. People come to estate sales expecting a deal but I feel like I got gypped. read more

Every time I have been to one of their estate sales, Karen has been extremely rude! Her husband on the other hand is friendly. If you went to deal with someone feeling put out to answer any questions you might have at an estate sale, then go there. The prices are overpriced even for EBay. The elderly woman that works for her is very kind and accommodating. Even her cashier seems like she's put out (must be related). If you don't want to deal with people, than get out of the customer service industry. read more

since 2011 I visit their sales...... This ENTIRE team has always been consistent in cleanliness, organization, and professionalism. They also have always made it a point to remember me by my name along with many others! They value us, the customers, tremendously and really put forth the effort to help make things easy, and efficient! That is just a small description of what this team displays. Their sales are Fantastic! They make first on my list always in my estate sale adventures mainly because of who they are what they bring :) I encourage all to make it a point to visit one of their sales..... I'm confident you'll look for them again! LBohling read more

We love going to their Estate Sales. They are very knowledgeable about items and really seem to care about their clients and customers! Every estate sale of theirs that we have gone to has been organized and orderly. Definitely our favorite estate sales to go to! read more

They did an excellent job with the estate sale that helped me prepare my house for sale. I had zero experience with estate sales but they guided me thru it step by step. Always quick to respond to my questions and were flexible to the few minor changes I desired. Compassionate, caring, friendly and professional. I promise, you will not be disappointed with their services. read more

Okay! I misunderstanding and doing the right thing lead me to write this update. I had many positives over the years to let one mistake get in the yelp review. We cleared that up today and I am of the integrity that forgiveness is the better way to go. Had a great estate sale today, well staged and interesting, please give these guys a look when you see them. read more

This company seems to drag unsold junk from house to house under the guise of 'estate' sales. After waiting in line for over an hour (because company was too under-staffed to let a normal number of people inside at a time!), I was out of there in less than 2 minutes and bought nothing. I will NEVER go to a sale by this company again! read more

The staff keeps things fun and light-hearted, always available to help, and to put a smile on my face! I'm a collector of old things, and I am always able to find what I am looking for fairly quickly when I show up to their sales because everything is well organized. If you go to estate sales often, you sure do learn to appreciate that kind of thing! When my husband finally forces me to downsize, these are the people I am going to be calling! read more

Came Across a Estate Sale they were doing.The Family was kind and friendly especially David very thoughtful guy.I had interest in multiple furnitures that were going for sale and did not have space for all but David was willing To help us arrange something for the last furniture.Which was long and very heavy.Very thankful for David very good man n enjoyed chatting w him.They made the experience very enjoyable.These people were patient and thoughtful with my family .God bless your family and business keep doing the good work. read more

We had such a good experience working with Remember When. Professional, respectful & so helpful.

Please let me state that I fully stand by my review. If you want to be treated like garbage, then call these people. Every little detail about who said what, when and why isn't necessary to explain why I don't recommend this company. I cant remember ever being treated so rudely. I don't believe they know the definition of Common Courtesy. read more

I have been to tons of estate sales, and these people are so organized and friendly! Love it!

I do a lot of estate saling on and I have to say... the people at Remember When Estate Sales are just the kindest, sweetest people. I always love attending one of their sales and chatting with multiple generations of this lovely family. Highly recommend!!! Cheers! read more

Went to a local estate sale today here in Austin. Upon entering, I noticed the employee wearing a "Cowboys for Trump" hat. I immediately left the sale. Called the sale organizer, Karen, and expressed to her that it was unprofessional of her to allow her employees to be wearing political items at an estate sale that is open to the public. She immediately began belittling me, calling me names and then proceeded to pass the phone to her husband David. David told me to "come through the door of our sale and say it to my face" regarding my complaint. He then threatened me with bodily harm if I ever go to one of their sales again ...which I won't be. Just wanted to get the word out about what kind of people these are at Remember When estate sales. Company website is www.rememberwhentx.com. Let's get the word out about these people. read more

I am sure they are great to shop with, but dealing with them as a neighbor to the house they are working in, it has been a total nightmare!!! None of the neighbors were informed of any estate sell going on. People are parking in front of our driveways and walking through our yards. To say our street is infuriated would be an understatement. read more

Karen and David are simply the best! They made what I believed to be an impossible task look easy, and the result far exceeded our expectations. They took a lifetime accumulation of stuff and organized and arranged it all in a very appealing and logical way. They have experience, and it shows in the results of our sale which exceeded our expectations. I know our successful sale was due, not only to their experience (you can't surprise them, they've seen everything and solved every problem many times before your sale!), but also to plain old hard work, being trustworthy and honest. Not insignificantly, they are genuinely nice people, open and friendly. We could not be happier that we chose Remember When! They worked magic out of a mess!!! read more

I agree with everything that Sara S. said. Horrible communication. He wanted to fight my husband in the street. I guess the police have been over on several occasions. Very unprofessional, in my opinion. read more

I am the landlord and owner of the real property when an estate sale is due to take place. When I called with concerns about how the sale will be conducted (and I spoke reasonably and politely), Karen got very nasty and would not speak with me about any aspect of the upcoming sale. She did not even attempt to be polite. I will repost another review after the sale, with a detailed description of how the sale was conducted and how I was treated in the process. At this point if I could give zero stars I would. Be wary of these people, that may not be what they seem. read more

I have hired Karen and David twice in the past 5 years and both times they did a fantastic job. They are very thorough, transparent and made the entire process effortless for me. For both events, I had entire house contents to sell and I was blown away by the level of detail they go to in order to have the best sale possible. I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you Karen and David! read more

Karen and David were amazing! I am a frequent customer to estate sales around the Austin area and you can always count on a smile and a warm welcome. Their customer service is impeccable and they are always available to answer questions and help in any way they can. Their prices are reasonable and the items are always neatly displayed. If you are a client or a customer, I believe your experience will be a positive one. read more

I have been to numerous estate sales provided by David and Karen - owners of Remember When Estate Sales. I have always appreciated the professionalism and top-notch quality of the way they run their business. David begins every sale by informing the customers to the expectations and overview of that particular sale. He offers to answer any questions and reminds and asks everyone to conduct themselves with the respect and curtsey that the homeowner deserves. Once inside the sale, the Remember When team is well organized and available to help and answer any questions. Their check-out is fast and easy. They even often take the time to offer help to carry large, heavy and bulky purchases. read more

I called several companies to come out and provide me a quote. One never returned my call. Blue Moon came out and turned me down, stating there was not enough "High End" stuff but Remember When came out and really impressed me. Very professional presentation and it was obvious that they knew their stuff. They conducted the sale and realized more revenue than they had originally anticipated and we had a check within a week. And, everything was left clean and organized so we could come in and do a garage sale for the final left over stuff with almost no effort whatsoever. I highly recommend them. read more

Karen and her husband came to assess my parent's home. They were right on time, personable, and helpful. They explained we were not a good candidate but they gave us a strategy and recommended resources. I highly recommend calling them first. There appear to be a lot of odd fellows in this industry who are unprofessional, greedy or have a poor bedside manner so to speak. Avoid that and call Karen. They are busy so you may have to persist at first but I believe that is because that when they are with their clients, the people they are working with have their 100% full attention. read more

Karen and David have been excellent to work with on several transactions. As a realtor, I want to make sure my clients are in good hands during the entire process. I have confidence each time Karen and David handle the sale of clients precious items, that it will be done in a professional and respectful way. They are experts at setting up and keeping the sale organized. Highly recommend! read more

I've attended two lovely estate sales by this company now and am very impressed with how they run things! They take detailed photos which are posted several days in advance on EstateSales.net and make their policies very clear. I am an early bird, so i usually go wait in line for a bit before they open so I can be one of the first ones in. They give a small speech before opening each sale just to tell a bit about the home, the family, etc. I love the homage to the homeowners because after all, we are perusing someone's home. I really appreciate them making the connection for us customers. The last sale i attended in Dripping Springs was really well put together, they even let us in a tad early because it was cold outside. The staff is very sweet and helpful by keeping holds for you while you shop and making suggestions for items you may like or upcoming sales! Their pricing is fair for the most part and i have managed to snag some pretty cool stuff. Thanks y'all and see you at the next sale! read more

I've had two clients use Remember When and both were extremely happy with the entire process. I highly recommend them. Be sure to book way in advance! read more

We had a great experience with Karen and David and our sale. Our goal was to sell everything in our home so we could rent it and travel. Karen and David were friendly, and open about their process, able to answer all questions forthrightly and from experience. They spent several days working on display of items and doing a great job researching pricing. I felt they worked hard to get pricing at the sweet spot, attractive to customers but with attention to the value of each item. They had plenty of staff supervising during the sale and we felt fine leaving our home with them. We were pleased with the sale results and would definitely go with Remember When again if the need arises. read more

@Matt M. Review: I'm a costumer who was at the same estate sale moments after you left, and during the threatening aggressive phone call you made to the employees of this business. I don't have a dog in this fight. If I did, he probably wouldn't like you. I heard the reaction from the poor lady when you called her a "C***"! I heard her husband when he took the phone from her and invited you to return to the house to discuss it. He never threatened you. He invited you to come out from hiding behind your phone. Anyone can wear whatever kind of hat they want. We live in a land of the free. And you are free to leave it. read more
