FOR BUYERS:

Q: Do you let people into your sales early?

A: There are no sales prior to the posted date and time and there are no pre-sales as it is not fair to the public.

Q: Will you hold my item for me so that I can pick it up at a later time?

A: No. Pick up time cannot be arranged at a later date and must be picked up by end of sale day.

Q: Do you have staff there to help me move my purchases?

A: No loading assistance will be provided by liquidator or seller. Buyers will need to bring their own help and any tools that they may need.

Q: Is an Estate Sale the same as a Yard Sale?

A: No. Do not expect that things at Estate Sales to sell at yard sale prices. The proceeds from estate sales often go to pay bills, final expenses, on-going care, etc.

Q: Are the merchandise that I buy refundable if are not working or if I changed my mind?

A: No. All items are sold "AS IS", "WHERE IS", without guarantee of any kind. All sales are final. It is the buyer's responsibility to determine the condition of the merchandise before purchase. No returns. No refunds. No exceptions.

Q: Is this an Estate Sale Auction?

A: Karbury's is also an auction house but not all of our estate sales are auctions. The sale will clearly state that it is an auction if one is held.

Q: When do you lower the price of items?

A: The first day of each of our estate sales we do not negotiate on pricing. We create a high volume of traffic that frequent our sales each day of the sale. Because of this high demand, we don't need to negotiate and all of our pricing is firm the first day. Negotiation day is the second day of the sale and the last day, whatever items are left, are then reduced.

FOR SELLERS:

Q: What do we charge and how do you get paid?

A: For our estate sales it is a commission or percentage of the overall sale proceeds. This commission percentage is variable based upon a multitude of factors such as location, time, setup costs, size of the sale, security needs and other various factors. Our fees are extremely competitive and are determined on-site during the walkthrough no obligation free consultation.

Q: Is there an agreement for the estate sale services?

A: Yes, we do put in writing, how the sale will operate from the initial day to the completion of the sale and what is expected. It's very simple! The agreement is in place to protect the integrity of the sale and states that you won't cancel the sale the day before it starts and we won't take a better sale in place of yours.

Q: How do take the next step to get started?

A: The initial step is to contact us and one of our staff will walk you through the process, answer any questions you have and then schedule a free, no-obligation, on-site consultation. Then we will meet with you to discuss expectations, sale options and schedule your sale.

Q: What kinds of items from the estate should be included in your estate sale?

A: All saleable items are included in the estate sale. This includes but is not limited to the following; antiques, coins, jewelry, cars, books, clothing, furniture, appliances and more! Anything in the home is most likely sellable and should be included. Don't donate or throw items away thinking you are assisting the ("getting the estate ready") process. Too often we see people donate themselves out of the ability to have an estate sale. We sell just about everything and this adds important value to your estate sale.

Q: Why does Karbury's Estate Services encourage selling some of the higher value items at auction instead of the estate sale?

A: More often than not, we will include all items in the on-site estate sale and sometimes some items will be listed and sold at auction. By utilizing the auction method, we can open up the sale of many items to a larger audience increasing profitability.
