How It Works
The Jewel Box has a variety of different services we offer in regards to estate sales. Below is a list of those and what they entail. For any questions or to book an appointment, please feel free to contact us either via email or phone number!
Consultation
Consultations offer the customer opportunity to meet with Rusty and learn more about the specifics of the estate sale process and give Rusty opportunity to see customer’s property to be sold in order to offer the best approach for maximizing profits at customer’s sale. Consultations are free of charge!
Preparation
We request one week (in most cases) to access the property and prepare for the sale. Rusty and his team work to organize the contents of the sale, clean and price all items and stage the presentation of items to generate maximum sales. If there are valuables outside our area of expertise, we will engage expert resources at our own expense.
Advertising
We offer a unique benefit with our ever-growing email list of devoted estate sale shoppers! In advance of each sale, we send a description and pictures of the items to generate interest in the sale. Additionally, we advertise with 24-7 estate sales or estatesales.net to further promote the sale. Directional signs are posted the morning of the sale to guide our shoppers to the front door!
The Estate Sale
We hold a two-day sale (in most cases), usually Fridays & Saturdays (10am -4 pm). On Fridays, items are full price all day. Saturdays are our discount days with items being discounted twenty-five percent (10am – 1:00pm) and then fifty percent (1:00pm – 4pm).
Payment
At the sale, we accept credit cards (VISA, MASTERCARD, DISCOVER), cash and checks with valid Driver’s License. Customer will receive their proceeds 10 days following the last day of their estate sale.
Unsold Items
As part of our estate sale services, we schedule donation to pick up all unsold items following the sale since many customers want the property completely empty. If Customer wishes to select a donation company of their choice, they are welcome to do so and can schedule that pick up at their convenience.
