    Anyone having luck with estate sales in there area?

    Jeff I like the “unpopulated” areas better for sales, I feel I find better things. I basically live in a town with a little less than 1500 people. I have found mint condition elites and some other stuff, small town people know how to keep there machines nice.

    Anyone having luck with estate sales in there area?

    texaskirbyguy and OhioVacuums i agree with the overpriced stuff and getting better deals with marketplace and craiglist, i found more stuff if the sale is ran by the family/owner of estate. all of the businesses who do the sale overprice stuff way to much, its really sad

    Anyone having luck with estate sales in there area?

    justjunque how they work is the same as a garage sale, but your in a house. i just search a house looking in every area and nook and cranny, you never know what you could miss. just pickup whatever you want, go to the runner of the sale and pay them, or negotiate a lower price
