"Where else can you find everyday essentials and a possible treasure in a clean organized sale? The treasure hunt along with the friendly staff keep me coming back each time."

"I haven't been to their shop, but I've been to several Estate Sales hosted by this company. The employees are mostly friendly and helpful. But the prices are outrageous. Used as-is electronics priced at the highest listed comp they can find on Ebay. I saw t-shirts priced for $12 a piece (not valuable t-shirts, just normal used t-shirts that would be $1 anywhere else). Bath Towels for $6 each that have a tag from the original purchase that says $4.99. Furniture for ungodly high prices. I guess the strategy of this company is to not sell much until the 75% off discount kicks in on the final day of the sale. Or perhaps since they run their own antique shop the strategy is to not sell certain items at all and then buy from the estate after the sale for dirt cheap bulk prices to sell in their shop. Either way, I'd recommend (if you even bother) to go to the sale on the final day... and hope that 75% off their overpriced items equates to an actual reasonable price."

"Accidentally walked into this shop and found some lovely pieces. An antique sewing table I’d been looking for, and some china I didn’t know I needed. Great pieces and big discounts on the day I shopped."

"The blonde lady never acknowledged me even though I was the only one in the store for quite a while. I guess I did not meet her standards. They have nice things, but I will never return."

"Just the perfect little spot! I was on a walk somewhere else and couldn't resist. I found a cute medicinal tin that I thought was neat and some great furniture. I couldn't carry these on my walk so I put it back and received no guilt or hard sale which was hugely appreciated. She just said "If it's meant to be, it will be". (I rejected her offer to put it on hold). I came back about an hour later. I would have purchased so much more had I not been on a walk. When I got back to my hotel, I found out the tin retails for $30-$60 on ebay! I bought it for $1.80 - no intention of selling but wow what a deal!"
