I used Dilliards to help me with a downsizing project. I contracted with them to haul away and…read moreauction off (online) a trailer full of about 1200 cubic feet of household items, furniture, an overhead garage door, and garden equipment. Initially, owner Mike Dilliard, put on quite a charming show, breaking into auctioneer-speak, when he came to discuss the job. He was professional and prompt in getting a truck to us. He was clear that we could either make money, lose money or break even. The photographing and tagging of large items left at our home was done in a friendly, respectful, and timely manner. But it really went downhill from there. It took them two months to get the items ready for auction. By then it was right before Christmas. The follow up from the office regarding cataloguing of our items (and my being able to add to the descriptions) turned out to be very poor. The ball was completely dropped and I wasn't notified of the items being ready until 24 hours before the auction, when the poorly written catalogue had already been open for almost two weeks. The auction results were DISMAL, with every single item going for less than it would have at a yard sale, let alone on ebay or craigslist. There was continued lack of communication (no response to repeated phone calls) in the follow up, regarding items needing to be picked up from our property. After the auction had been completed for over two months, I finally had to contact them about completing the contract. This was supposed to have been done in 14 - 21 days. In my email, I outlined 7 instances of poor performance on the part of the staff. Mike replied promptly, by voicemail, but only addressed the tardiness in finalizing the auction, nothing else. He apologized and said he would forego his commission. As you can probably guess, if he hadn't given his commission, I would have lost money. In addition to putting in no effort to really sell the items for a decent amount, he charges $25 per hour for cataloguing the items, which he uses an app for, which he told me was so easy. I calculated they spent about a half hour on each item. That long for one photo and a few words of description? Doubtful! BEWARE! This is pretty much a service to get your stuff hauled away, and you may end up paying for it. Anything valuable, take the time to sell it yourself. And if you use them, ride them like a jockey. (Although I have friends who did and they, too, were sorely disappointed.)
