I cannot get off their mailing list . They won't respect my wishes to remove me and there is no way to easily unsubscribe . I've asked and asked and asked . I've emailed them as well . Sounds small but it's dozens of unwanted emails. read more

I haven't been to RPN sales for a few years. RPN is a second hand store at 4451 N. Milwaukee Avenue. Today I was driving north on Milwaukee Avenue when we drove on past and noticed that they were having their auction tonight (Wednesday). I have been to their auction before, but it's been several years since I have been by there. On the first & third Wednesday of the month they hold these auctions. You go in the day of the auction and peruse the stuff that's available. All the items are numbered sequentially, if it's something that you're interested in you can go back @ 6pm to midnight when the auction begins & ends. They go sequentially in numerical order so if it's a low number you can make a bid buy it and go, but if it's a higher number you could be there pretty late. You know what they say? One man's junk is another man's treasure. Most of the stuff is the former, but once in awhile you can find some cool items. A few years ago we were looking for casual seating for our basement & found a nice black cushy chair. This chair was numbered 102 so I had to hang around to bid on it. I ended up having the winning bid and got the chair for $20. They also buy out storage lockers from people that abandon their items and neglect to pay the storage charges. From what I was told they bid on the lot sight unseen. If they have the winning bids they take the whole lot and sell it at these auctions on the 1st & 3rd Wednesday's of the month. I ended up buying a lot of cool martial art weapons. I have this morbid fascination with knives & weapons. I bought this box with throwing knives, shurikens (throwing stars), nunchucks, and a gigantic Rambo Bowie knife. I am now the proud owner of all this weaponry that I never use. Like I said most of the stuff isn't necessary, but I wanted it. They also have collectors that really know the value of items. One such bid ended up being hotly contested for some little dolls & another collection was pretty much neglected with very low bids. You also need to know your prices. There was a tree pruner with an extension handle that allows you to trim branches high up in the tree. I wanted this for the trees in my yard, but I checked online to see the price of a new one. When the bid prices started to pass the price of this used tree pruner I decided to withdraw from the bidding. read more

Rpn Sales - RPN Sales & Auction House 4451 N Milwaukee Ave - Furniture Stores Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

We bought a table and chairs that they were holding for us, We returned and told them they would not fit in our kitchen. they were not delivered and they said they would charge us 75.00 delivery because we did not take the items. I asked for the policy and Nancy said it was in her head. These are greedy money hungry people who do not know the first thing about customer service. They told me if I asked for my credit card company to get money back they would go after me. Go after me? for them stealing our money? We never took the table and chairs home. We never took possession. Stay away from these people. They sell junk. It is not second hand goods. Go to value city or the Salvation Army. They are not honest brokers. read more

They don't respond. Also, helps if you speak mandarin, want nothing for your stuff and are willing to get paid after a very tight haircut. ​

I walked through the entire store for 15-20 minutes and no employee so much as said "hi" to me. There were only one or two other customers and they were looking around like I was. As I was leaving, I asked two employees who were moving things around if they were a consignment store (thinking this might justify the silly high prices - like, brand new retail high in some cases) and they said "no." That's it. One word. No conversation ensued. I stood there for a moment and walked out. Wouldn't waste my time on this place. read more

Totally disappointed. I have been trying to find a place that would buy some furniture and sent them an email in late June - no reply. Stopped into the store and spoke with Nancy on July 6, showed her pictures of the items and she seemed very interested. Said she would even come to my house to look at the items - no reply. Called and left message - no reply. Sent another email with the pictures - no reply. Called again and spoke with an assistant who said she would relay the message - no reply. Still have items, still - no reply. Very disappointed. read more

See all

Nancy and Roger are great. I have been working with them for years and they have always been extremely helpful with whatever crazy project I had at the time. Shop local and support these guys as they will not disappoint. read more

The show room has a nice cross section of used furniture. The prices are fair, but what is great is the Wednesday night auction! The first Wednesday of every month there is an auction, you can get there earlier an see what will be up for bidding. If no else wants what you want you will get it for a steal. Every auction is different but with low buyer fees and free cookies and coffee you should check it out. I have seen everything from vintage toys and comic books to brand new furniture. Towards the end of the night they have boxed lots that sell for really cheap and are a good shot at getting a bargain. This is also a great experience if you were ever wondering "where do all these guys at Maxwell street get their stuff?" read more

YIKES.... outrageous expensive for furniture. Yes I'll admit some of the furniture pieces are nice. Hutch, Armoire, desk and so on. But no way should a used armoire with chips in it be $400. I did ask what kind of store it is and they said new and used furniture.. It is very clean and organized, easy to walk around. But if your looking to spend prices equal to new furniture prices... then i say GO TO A store with only new furniture... I mean c'mon seriously.. $900 for a dresser w/mirror ???? read more

3 years ago I contacted them (highly recommended by a friend) to have them come look at a full house of everything (my sister in-law had passed away and I had to clean her house out to sell it). Their answer was "not right now we have a sale in a few days", so I called them back two weeks later and they came right out and said no, we are full. Now 3 years later (another estate for me to handle) when I called they said I have to email pictures and said I should note in the email the urgency to have it cleaned out. I sent the pics on 9/29 and told them it wasn't urgent but I was having a realtor come by the following week. They had not responded by 10/5 so I sent another email asking if they are interested. It is now 10/20 and I have not heard a word and they have my email and telephone number so I will not be using them in the future and I certainly will not recommend them. read more

If you need new furniture or unique home decor items- go to RPN. If you need it cheap, go to their Wednesday auction. It is just unbelievable how beautiful the store items are and then the auction - what an experience! The auction includes items that are just exquisite as well as a fair amount of junk! Expect to be there for hours as they go through all the items, but some of the prices for furniture and electronics is incredibly cheap. I just love this place and the owners are so friendly and warm! A real family store that is just a pleasure to walk through. I need a new bedroom set so I am waiting for the auction before I shop anywhere else. Love it!!!! read more
