It may not help, but you will feel better you had your say.JunkStuffTreasureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05059894965615884726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7887033820809624619.post-85813348260186302212012-09-10T06:56:17.054-07:002012-09-10T06:56:17.054-07:00I've been to a few sketchy estate sales, and e...I've been to a few sketchy estate sales, and even got into a confrontation with someone who took down the list and put up a new one with her name first on the list. I caught her doing it and I guess I humiliated her enough to where I've never seen her at another sale! I really wish that there were guidelines that ALL estate sale companies followed, and I also wish that we could sign a list online somehow. Then there would be no disappearing list. Oh, and there is a company that always charges way too much for everything, so a bunch of us "regulars" don't go to that company's sales anymore. Going to estate sales is definitely hit or miss, and we waste so much time trying to get in, but they can be alot of fun too!

It disgusts me. I don't like going. <br /><br />I think about all the happy times the person or people had in their home with all their belongings & all these people are trekking through with their dirty ass shoes on trying to get a deal on every single part of their life, including their clothing & their walker... and they act like animals while they'll all doing it.
