Sellers beware, these guys are dishonest and will scam you for over 50% profit on your items; I have also not received $600 from the sale of my items.

At first, as a buyer, I saw some low prices that got my attention. Later I spoke to a manager, Eric Rock, who I was told is one of the owners. I told him about my high end items that I was interested in selling if the price was right. I only wanted them sold as a set, because if they were broken up I feared we would not get the true value, be left with items that would not sell, or take a long time to sell.

Over several weeks we spoke and he still wanted my items for the showroom; only the good items are displayed in the showroom. I agreed and he sent his movers to pick up my items, free of charge, but the movers gave me paperwork and said I needed to sign. I contacted him with questions and he said I that I needed to sign the standard paperwork, but that he would get me our verbal agreed minimum of $1,000.00 if not more.

At first I said no, I did not want to sign the paperwork, but he told me they take 50% commission on the sale so they wanted to sell the items for as much as possible. He also told me that if they broke up the items we would earn more money and insisted that this is what we needed to do. I was unsure but reminded myself that this was his business and he had given me his word, so I agreed to do it.

Over several months they sold most of my items but not all of them. I called to check up on my items and I was told that they sold some of them, but they were sold far below our agreed prices. I was told that this was a mistake from the new store manager because he thought I had abandoned my items and they owned them now. I spoke with Eric again who acknowledged this mistake and said that he will raise the prices on the remaining items to offset this loss. I said this will make them harder to sell and pointed out that this was my original concern.

Most recently they informed me they took two other items similar to mine which also made mine harder to sell. I was not told they changed me $10 extra for every check they wrote, but I accepted that this is what you have to do as a business to earn money. At this point I am still owed over $600 from my items with only one table left.

These guys avoid me as much as possible when I contact them, I feel that they used “the standard paperwork” to deceive me, and they sold my items for much less than our agreed prices. The owner even bragged about buying a 3.4 million dollar building. When I brought up our verbal agreement regarding the items, I was told that they have stored my items over a long period of time, so they now owned them because I did not resign the paperwork. This is another thing I was not informed of or in our original, verbal agreement. I have received insults and attitude from them. If you know the value of your items, I do not recommend selling them through this company.
