Why have your family estate devalued when you can have it's value increased?

Traditional estate sales have served families for decades. Unfortunately, the traditional estate sale has outlived it's need and no longer serves like it should. In an "Estate Sale" items are tagged and priced based on what the estate sale company believes the item is worth. While this makes the sellers comfortable up front, the reality is items usually sell for much less than tagged price.

Nearly all estate sale companies run the same devaluing system. On day one of the sale buyers can negotiate at least 25% off the tagged price. Day two, tagged items are automatically discounted by 25%-50%. Day three, items may be discounted by as much as 90% off tagged price. This devaluing of items is counter productive and defies logic in the market. Items are locked in under the tagged price and will never increase in value, but only be purposely decreased.

Why not increase the value instead? With an online auction the opposite takes place. Items start at one dollar and market driven competitive bidding takes place over a period of time that drives prices up with No ceiling. Traditional estate sales usually bring approximately 100-150 local customers only, while an online auction has local and nationwide reach and offers shipping on most items. An online auction will sell on average 98% of all items in the estate while an estate sale averages 68% sold rate. Fees with an online auction are much lower as there is less labor and marketing costs involved.
