Estate Sales by June & Diane

If I could give them zero stars I would. Do NOT hire these people, and please do more research then I did into estate sale companies, who do not have to be licensed or regulated. As the other family mentioned, they talk a great game, and act very much like they care about you and your family. We were selling my moms furniture and belongings. We also experienced the exorbitant advertising fees. We had a lot of trouble with communications with Diane and her husband Larry. They had many excuses for being late for appointments, even changing the date of the sale. Sadly, I kept giving them the benefit of the doubt. What a mistake. Our sale was ⁸⁄₁ and we have yet to see a dime. They first said they had sent the check to the wrong address, then claimed they were in Florida… now they are not returning any calls, texts or emails. They are thieves plan and simple, it is as if they broke into moms house and stole the contents – worst thing is I LET THEM IN. We are in contact with the police, better business bureau, etc. but save yourself the agony and Stay Away from this scam company.

Still keep calling Diane regarding monies owed. She doesn’t answer phone NOR does she return calls — this is confirming that she and her «husband» Larry are thieves, swindlers and elder abusers.
Oh, hey Mr. Cop… haven’t heard from you yet… Did Larry steal your testicles???

Selling off the stuff of your parents’ lifetime isn’t easy. And trying to do this while living elsewhere is difficult. Hence, we hired Estate Sales by June and Diane (
) to accomplish the sale as expediently as possible and we made a terrible error in so doing!
They really talked a good game (can you say «over-​promise and under-​deliver?); been in business forever and had a huge following. While those things may or may not be true, our experience was a HUGE fail!
Who sells a mahogany desk for $ 25 and then prices ordinary glass vases at $ 15 each? Who breaks up sets? — the master bedroom antique mahogany set was 7 pieces but they sold both mirrors and a vanity, then separately sold the nightstand and left behind a dresser and chest. Who sells two end tables, leaving the matching coffee table behind? or sells half a sun room set?
They’re a pathetic excuse for a well-​run business, running up $ 186 in newspaper ads (who reads newspapers anymore?) and taking 25% of the measily profits, all the while giving excuses (the stuff wasn’t good, people just didn’t want to buy etc) and providing very little real information about what things actually sold for.
I was able to sell off the remaining furniture in 3 days for more than 4x what they made and I did it without spending a dime! Please, learn from our mistake and do yourselves a favor if you are even considering hiring these people to do a sale, do it yourselves instead or, at the very least, keep looking for a competent group!
