Terms

We accept cash, credit & debit cards as payment, with a 3% credit card fee - nothing's free, someone has to pay for those sky miles. We're a legitimate business, so we DO charge sales tax.
We have a few boxes available, but if you feel motivated, please bring boxes and packing material - you'll need them!
Always bear in mind that we're an estate sale company, not Nieman's.
Please make an effort to bring your own muscle (gardener/house boy) to load heavy furniture.

This weekend , we'll be ready to throw open the doors on another of our infamous estate sales. Infamous, you ask? Yes, we're the only estate sale company in town with a certified sense of humor and a state-of-the-art check-out system, designed by a GA Tech braniac, so that most of the items are barcoded. You won't have to stand in line forever, while an invoice is hand written by a fossil, like me!

This house is stuffed with furniture (some good antiques), dining room, kitchen, breakfast room, great room, three upstairs bedrooms,  a downstairs man cave and bonus room. The house is completely full of everything you need and a few things you don't want.

The reason for this estate sale is a move for Mom to assisted living. The family wants us to hurry up and finish our sale, so they can list the house for sale. The real estate agents live in the neighborhood (Arjé & Jim McCarty, with Keller Williams Atlanta Perimeter). They can be reached in advance at 678-298-1664.

I recently received the signed contract for the sale, so please feel free to check this listing frequently, as we will continually update and add pictures/descriptions as the sale morphs and unfolds. 

Do you enjoy estate sales? How about scrunging at yard/garage/thrift stores? Please realize that there is a huge difference between authentic estate sales and the other venues to get your fix. I personally love to dig through any type of sale (hence my Ph.D in shopping) to find a hidden treasure that just "speaks" to me.

Just a word to let you know that estate sales are a real business. Surprising, huh? Please realize that we are a contracted company, whose job is to sell the contents of someone's home. We do not personally own any of the items available at a sale. When tempted to ask "Can you do better on the price?" - Sure, we can double it!  ;-)

Seriously, we do a lot of behind the scenes work to prepare a property for a sale. We price, clean, stage, move, hang, repeat, so that your shopping experience can be fun and rewarding. All we ask in return is that you have fun, find some goodies and tell others about our sales.

There is a place setting for 8 (5 pieces per setting). The set has never been used. There are no utensil marks, nicks, chips, etc. The owner bought the set for her Mother, who thought it "Looks like something the President would have at the White House", so Mom never used the set. I still have all the original plastic sleeves that each piece was packed with. Here's a pic of the Christian Dior "Monogram Black" place setting, with a wonderful paring of Grand Baroque sterling flatware.                                                There's a huge set of the flatware, a combination of Mother's and Grandmother's set. You should see the serving pieces!                                                                            The weight makes them useful for family food fights or when the peaceful dinner conversation turns to politics... Two sets (Mother's & Grandmother's) Grand Baroque sterling flatware, by Wallace. What's to be said about girls who purchase the Grand Baroque pattern?                           This is Francis I with roses instead of fruit. Grande Baroque girls also have a sense of the dramatic. But they often also have a literary bent. That’s why you can buy a sterling silver bookmark in the Grande Baroque pattern. Grande Baroque girls often date boys whose families have the Acorn pattern. But they don’t marry them. It’s just a youthful rebellion.                                    This set weighs 14 1/2 lbs. & includes:                                                                    -11 cocktail forks                                                                      -18 luncheon knives                                                                   -17 dinner forks                                                                      -16 salad forks                                             The 13 Grand Baroque sterling servers.71-Piece set of Oneida Community Stainless *Twin Star* Atomic Age flatwareKenmore Refrigerator/Freezer, located in the garage, perfect for game day!If you're a home crafter, you'll know what this is.
