What a GREAT SALE!!
Again we would like to remind you that our name is NAPERVILLE TRADERS ESTATE SALES. We were dismayed to see another firm in town recently start up their business, deliberately snagging a good chunk of our name, so please don’t get us confused! We’ve been building a sterling reputation by running quality estate & downsizing sales for about 10 years; they’ve been at it for about 10 days! While we know there’s plenty of business to go around, their choice of a business name was hardly an accident, and in today’s market, experience means everything, so please pass OUR name on to your friends or family that might need our services ;-).
That’s about it for now. Let’s hope this balmy Indian Summer weather keeps up for a little bit longer. As always, we accept cold, hard cash or a good personal check with an i.d. Please supply your own vehicle and muscle to move heavy items. Thanks for understanding, and “Be There or Be Square!!”
All the Best,
Barb & Steve

** About numbers…often if there is a crowd of people wanting to enter the sale at the same time, we need to pass out numbers to allow a safe number of folks into the house. We will honor a sign up list if someone wishes to start one, however we cannot watch that list. We’ll pass out numbers precisely at 8:30 am on Saturday using the sign-up list for the ORDER that numbers are distributed, and you must be present to receive your number, and you must be present at 9AM when your number is called, otherwise you’ll have to wait. If you can think of a more equitable way to let people in, please let us know…we know this isn’t perfect, but it beats standing in a waiting line like kids coming back from recess ;-)
