Chuck was hired to do our estate sale for a loved one's belongings…read more I would not recommend Chuck for this type of work. Here are some bullet point reasons: - Chuck changed the percentage and added a fee (that ended up being for advertising )to the contract, upon signing, four days before the actual sale. By the way he typically includes advertising as part of the fee he requests. We were blindsided. He would have been turned away if it were solely up to me, but unfortunately, I had others involved in the decision to use him. - Rather than giving us a guideline for when things needed to be done, for example, signing a contract and time to set up advertising - He claimed it was not too late to get advertising in: Info for advertising in PennySaver should have been done the week before the sale so that the ad would run that weekend before. It was not done. He claimed he could get it in on Wed before the sale. This would have been too late as the sale would already be in full swing. The bottom line, he did not advertise with the money we agreed to give him (against our better judgment) in the two places critical for estate sales- PennySaver ( which would have been late for the sale anyway) and Estatesale.net. He did not purchase any advertising. He used a couple of social media posts and texted people he knew instead. He was poorly equipped- -not enough table ,and the ones he had were very dirty, -signage was simply white computer printer paper. -he did not put enough signs up around town. We actually gave him some materials that he did not use, so we put more signs up ourselves with this material and our own social media postings. While we are so grateful that in the absence of Chuck's lack of preparedness, professionalism, and business ethics, our sale was not a flop, the poor way in which things were run and the fact that he did not do as he agreed to is not something anyone wants to deal with. Lastly, before he agreed to the contract that he changed and we had to negotiate, he wanted to see what was put aside and would not be included in the sale. This is horribly poor taste. He is hired to do a job, and he sells what the client says is up for sale, not what isn't. This is wrong on so many levels but, in my opinion, is taking advantage of those grieving a loss and trying to work through a finality. Yuck! Please think twice before using him for your estate sale.

Overpriced junk mostly. I was taken aback by some of the prices on the merchandise. No way would I…read morepay what they were asking on most items. It's mostly just trinkets and other old stuff from the homes of dead grandmas, which there is no shortage of in Batavia. Would I return? Nope. Might someone else find something they appreciate here? It's possible. Good luck!

I recently had a laptop crisis (it was stolen) and I needed to set up a new laptop ASAP…read more Ted did a terrific job in listening to my software issues, offered a visit to my home vs leaving it at his place, and a very flexible repair window depending on my work needs. I chose to drop off my laptop, Ted fixed my issues within 1 hour, and I retrieved the laptop w/o a hitch. Excellent value for the $.

Great work!! Lisa
