We rarely have to make people wait once the doors open at 8am unless there are more than safely can enter the home. We do not issue numbers, and allow people to wait one hour before the sale begins. Unlike some other estate companies, we are happy to help you load your items into your vehicle, but are not liable for any damage when doing so, and will only load an item once paid for. Please do not sit outside the home before 7am and please stay OFF the property until then. Do not be that guy sneaking around the backyard trying to get into the place or open a window for a peek. This is an old home and as such has narrow staircases, loose bricks, floorboards, and other cool parts. There is no hidden treasure, and this sale is NOT your chance to look for it... anyone caught removing floorboards or digging into a wall or foundation, or otherwise defacing the home will be prosecuted. This is not a joke, it happens, it's insane but again, insurance, don't be the example! Please do not go into rooms that are taped off and marked no entry. The garage door will be the entrance and please leave driveway spots for people to load . . The property owner or estate company are not liable for any injury or accident and inform you that you enter this property at your own risk. (it's a nice place so don't be nervous, our lawyers make us write this) One person will be cashing customers out near the entrance of home and walking around and there will be employees in the main house and garage and a holding area inside to assist you to hold items for purchase and make piles. Lumber will be priced as a lot of by pile when picked out,. We cannot price thousands of pieces one by one. Cash only for any purchase under $100.... paypal or debit OK $100 to $1000, Nothing will be held unless paid and must be picked up by end of sale. No dealers or others will be allowed in early, please do not ask. NO FOOD OR DRINKS other than bottled water will be allowed inside the home. We cannot sell items after the sale... if you see something you like, make an offer while you are at the sale. There are NO PUBLIC BATHROOMS PLEASE DO NOT ASK!! ( there is a service station with facilities less than 3 miles away) Feel free to make piles of items during the mad dash times, but only if you are definitely purchasing them.(we will work with you for a large purchase but please don't make piles unless you intend to purchase the items)We are happy to make arrangements for delivery of your large item (for a fee of course).. This is a large old home with breakable items so no small children will be allowed and a strict you break it you buy it policy is in effect. Stealing from anyone is not nice, but from an estate is even worse (they benefit mostly old folks who really need the money from the items and home sale), Sooooo... Video surveillance will be used and anyone caught stealing or attempting to steal will be prosecuted etc. Questions regarding holding items, or item pricing cannot be answered, but feel free to ask about an item( this is common practice and makes it fair for everyone. If you see something you like, come to the sale and we will do our best to have you leave with it) We try to make each sale fun and easy going so you can get great deals on all our items and have some room left to make a profit if you wish to re-sell. Please keep this in mind regarding conduct, negotiation, and interactions with other shoppers at the sale, and help us keep the environment family friendly and professional. If you do not like the price of an item feel free to make an offer. We will do our best to accommodate every customer and hope to see you at the sale. Thank you
