[QUOTE="pearlsnblume, post: 4405124, member: 141"]Ouch Leslie, all that good stuff in a dumpster. I not too long ago went to an estate sale. This particular estate sale runner is not one of my favorites but the sale was not far from me. Anywho, she always has a dump truck at her sales because when the sale is done, and sometimes even when it is not done, her guys who help, start moving the stuff out of the home. It is very disconcerting because her sales are usually only from 9:30 am to 12 pm which means the guys are waiting and ready to start clean up. She does clean out the home and will do staging if asked. But it also means while I am looking they are grabbing stuff to throw in the dumpster. Last time I went to her sale, the guys went into the garage and brought out those hard plastic Christmas blow mold things and threw them in the truck. I thought she has lost her mind as people buy them. A lady went over to the guys and asked if she could have them as they were getting ready to be dumped. They gave them to her. On that same day, they also threw out about 4 MCM desks. Everyone who was standing there waiting to get in was shocked at what they were throwing out. I like her sales as a buyer because she prices things ok, but I would not recommend her because I think her way of doing business is not the right fit for many who want an estate sale runner.[/QUOTE]
