Collectors auctions dallas tx. or farmers branch, tx is a SCAM, BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!…read moreThey sold me a Taurus 454 raging bull which I paid for, $875.99 with shipping and fees, asked them to consign and resell for me, then was advised the it accidentally was sold on another auction site on 6-16-23 and I will get a full refund within 3 days. It is now 8-5-23 and NO refund. They won't call you back, won't answer but every 4th or 5th e-mail saying the same thing. I reached someone by phone 2 times assuring me that it's been issued. Proxibid (whom I bought it through won't do anything) so I've contacted Texas Dept. of licensing and Regulations, sent them all correspondence and still nothing. If you like to be stolen from, then this is the place. I've read more bad reviews than positive and won't be buying a gun online ever again.

I received a phone call last week from one of the managers at Tenenbaum who had recently had my…read morereview come across her desk. She said that she was mortified by the way the situation was handled when I brought my ring in and was hoping that she could make things right. At this point it had already been 2 weeks since I had brought the ring in so I had long since taken it to another jeweler to have the ring repaired. She was very apologetic and invited me to come back in the store whenever and to contact her personally. I appreciated that she reached out and acknowledged my experience. It doesn't negate the interaction I had with my sales associate and the jeweler but I do respect that she followed up and while I cannot say that I will be a returning customer at this point, I would take it into consideration. Full honestly, I think I would consider making a purchase there again but would likely not turn to them for any alterations or repairs in the future.

After seeing Lyn's advertisement on estatesales.net, I was excited to check out the beautiful…read moreclothes, bags and jewelry that was offered. I drove 30 minutes (which isn't terrible, I know) to get there. As I walk in, I smile to the guard to which I was promptly asked to leave. I asked why and was told no men were allowed. It was only for women. I asked to speak with Lyn. She comes out from the start with an attitude and says it's ladies only. "It's not my fault you can't read." I asked why, to which she replied " we have women changing in here and I don't want them feeling uncomfortable." I told her it was discriminatory and she said "thanks so much for telling me that" and shut the door. Now, I will start by saying I want any gender, sexual orientation, etc... to feel comfortable in any space. What I have an issue with is that she is turning away purchasing customers because something may happen. Are there no dressing rooms? Are the women just undressing in front of anyone? If that's so, there's a problem right there. If there are in fact dressing rooms, that is your job as the owner to make sure the customers are safe. As a gay, nonbinary individual, the last thing on my mind going to a sale is taking a peak at women, or anyone, for that matter. No where on the estate sale.net ad did It say no men were allowed. I saw the ladies only picture, but figured it was referring to only female clothing. If a trans woman were to come in would they be turned away just because they were born male? I'm assuming you keep it vague on the rules as to not get in trouble for discrimination. Lyn, I'm thinking because you sale high end goods that you feel you can treat others with disrespect and make up rules as you see fit. You are no better than those that are buying or selling to you. I left today feeling like I was dirty just because I wanted to buy a cute bag and jewelry. I'm sure you won't bother changing, but I encourage you to think about how you approach people. To think about their feelings, not just your bottom line. Sincerely, A Gay with One Less Bag and Ring

I decided to take an estate engagement ring for an appraisal with Ronnie, after reading several…read moreraving reviews about his expertise. Ronnie was very nice and professional! He thoroughly went through the process of inspecting my ring and showed me several different things to note about it - fully explaining how he determined the ratings of certain aspects. On top of all that, he went out of his way to offer tips on things that will be very useful to me in the future, as well as let me know I could reach out to me if I had any one-off questions during my ring search. Not to mention the value he offers in flat fees! I highly recommend Houston Jewelry Appraisal!! Thank you so much, Ronnie! We will see you again for all our other jewelry appraisal needs!!

I attended an estate sale and purchased a large, heavy mirror. I realized I wouldn't be able to…read morehelp carry it, so I asked a staff member if someone could assist. She told me yes and mentioned a tip for the person who helped. A gentleman then helped my husband carry the mirror down the stairs. At the top of the stairs, a woman who I believe is named Brittany Y. began following closely behind them on the staircase, which felt unnecessary and made an already difficult situation more stressful. Once downstairs, I handed a cash tip directly to the gentleman. At that point, Brittany took the money from his hand and immediately asked me if I had more to give. When I said "excuse me," she responded, "Not trying to be tacky, but can you give him more money?" I declined. Instead of leaving it there, she remained outside harassing me while my husband and I secured the mirror and continued to ask us for more money. During this time, she told me that "this is her business, and the employee only makes $15 an hour and she doesn't have insurance for them to move things". This was uncomfortable and inappropriate. Discussing an employee's wages and internal policies with a customer-- and especially asking for more money--is highly unprofessional. I did apologize just to end the interaction, but the situation should never have escalated this way. I was willing to tip for help, but being pressured repeatedly and having the money taken from the employee was unacceptable. While I appreciate the help from the gentleman, this experience left a very negative impression. If employees are not supposed to assist with moving items, Brittany could have said something before they started down the stairs.

I want to start by saying how grateful I am to Ms. English and her team. The task of managing my…read moreAunts estate was totally overwhelming and a seemingly insurmountable task to me. She and her team helped me manage it in a very professional, well documented and complete manner. Some things worth pointing out to anyone considering contacting Ms. English to help with their estate. 1. She is punctual. This may seem like a small thing, but I was dealing for the most part with everything remotely, so when I flew in to town I was usually very time constrained. I was never left waiting and never canceled upon. 2. She is professional. All items where handled with the highest level of competence and expertise and I never had the slightest worry during the process. 3. She is meticulous. All records for appraisals/valuations, sales (item by item), donations and expenses where methodically kept and available for review. Additionally, I requested that at the end of the sale that she manage the cleanup of the property and I can't imagine someone else being able to do a better job. When I interviewed real estate agents they all commented on the cleanliness of property and noted that it would require no further work to be ready for market. 4. She produces results. Based on review of the documentation after the sale, Ms. English was able to sell a very large percentage of the items in our estate, and at a much higher value per item than I anticipated. Items not sold were valued and arranged to be donated with receipts provided for donations.

Patti and her wonderful staff worked so hard to prepare every item in the household that was sellable. Nothing was overlooked. Where our inventory was lacking to present a well-rounded sale, Patti professionally assessed the need and brought in all that was necessary. We felt that her pricing was fair and reflected the value of our higher-end items. The house was left tidy and our leftovers neatly organized and either boxed or grouped. We also appreciated her recommendations and valuations for the items that did not sell. A great experience and a tremendous blessing to us.
