I like Sound Auction first and foremost and have done business with them many times. Unfortunately…read morethey choose to use KP Gunworks for firearm transfers and this is the comment I left on KP Gunworks Page: 12/16/25 I win two firearms on auction from Sound Auction. Sound Auction uses KP Gunworks for firearm (FFL) transfers. on 12/20/25 I present to KP Gunworks to complete the transfer at 0930. The business phone number states they are open at 10:00 on Saturday. On the door it is posted 9-5 and on Google it states 11-3 on Saturday. I sat in my car for over two hours 0930-1140 passing all three posted opening times and no-one ever showed. Several people showed as well and one young man who stated "He just shows up when he wants to". When he wants to? I have over four thousand dollars invested in an FFL transfer company that Sound Auction chooses to use that might show up when he wants to? At 11:40 I returned home to Lynnwood an over 120 mile round trip for absolutely nothing. Reading the Yelp comments over a two year span, I cannot believe KP Gunworks could be associated with any reputable business or that Sound Auction would have more respect for their customers and choose another FFL that at the minimum honors their posted opening time(s). I called my credit card company and cancelled the purchase and noted it as potential fraud. If a company never opens, and you cannot complete transfer paperwork, and eventually take possession, that is theft at a minimum and I certainly am not paying for that.

Emailed 3-4 times, filled out their online contact form, stopped by their store and tried to leave a message. I've never heard from them. I contacted Proxibid and they said they reached out to have them contact me. Nothing, not any response whatsoever. WTH is that about? Only about $100 in gemstones and a hatchet ... not complicated. Who runs a business like that? Today, after a month of trying to resolve this issue and get the products I paid for, I just disputed the charges. Who runs a business like that?

The owners and employees are not only helpful, but also extremely friendly. A good example of their honesty are their auction cars.

How do you know what they discard every single time? 4 stars from a guy who says he stands behind Stokes, yet has no pic or last name. Right there tells you their honesty. Funny how none of the cars have check engine lights on....until bought and 2 miles down the road. Feel sorry for guy who bought $19,000 semi for motor to blow week later....2 vehicles I bought 1.had unplugged modules, blown head gasket with freshly changed oil 2.same blown head gasket fresh oil, unplugged components ..should have said broken. Betting seems rigged with bidding extended. One car was sold 3 times....sold to themselves? Bidder backed out, that many times when Stokes pre screens and gets $350 per car sale approx. You know that red beast Stokes. Buy here if you like instant disappointment, vehicles with serious problems or have money to toss. Do better Stokes

Had Grasons handle an estate sale and house clean-out. They communicated well, worked quickly (the…read morewhole process from setup to empty house took a week) and were able to get rid of everything. After the estate sale, they had resellers buy things in bulk (such as books), and Habitat charity come last of all and they took quite a bit. Then the cleanout crew for trash and recycling. Victoria started the process by looking over the house and giving her opinion that there was enough of value to start the process within no payment up front. This was good to know, as we all have a budget. In the end, the proceeds did not cover all the costs but TBH, it came in less than I'd budgeted so we were happy. Just keep in mind that your mileage may vary. Understand up front their pricing philosophy, and that a lot of the items may go to bulk buyers who offer much less. My concern was finding a useful home for as many items as possible but knew that in the end there would be a lot going to trash and recycling. We were looking at a lifetime of accumulations.

It seems like they have an ever rotating stock of items here so you will probably find something…read morenew everything you go. While the showroom floor area was kind of small; they do pack a lot in a small space. Also, since there is a lot of large furniture it takes up a lot of the floor. Just in case you didn't know, the surplus store appears to be all the surplus used Washington State equipment and furniture. So instead of taking a total loss on used items, you can just go buy a table or set of file cabinets or computers that may have been used somewhere in the state offices. I actually found the large tables and computer desks and small stationary very inexpensive. I thought it was priced in line with the thrift stores around the area. I found two large bookcases for $10 each and a large dining room table for $15. They had large binders for $1 and file cabinets for $5 per drawer. They have refrigerators and TVs and computers and printers. There are other items that are a little bit more pricey and maybe not in line with what I was thinking for used materials, but too each their own. They sell old state cars and large machinery as well, just in case you're looking. If you're looking for some reasonably priced older furniture or basic stuff to fill up a house or apartment until you get your "real" furniture, this place is worth a visit. Everything seems pretty sturdy so it might actually last you a long while.

Everything started out fine. They visited our home and we showed them what we wanted to sell. They…read morewere cordial, enthusiastic seeing all the antiques and collectibles, and we developed a plan for the auction. They did a lot of good work, packaging up the items and creating the listings. We thought all was well until we saw the listings prior to the sale going live. Instead of selling individual collectibles or antiques, they put many together in groups, which resulted in a much lower return. Also, on a number of items, we specifically specified a reserve, which they said they would honor. That was not done, and, depite notifying them of that, they said it was too late, and they went ahead and sold the items anyway at an absurdly, ridiculously low amount. We had planned to utilize them for several more auctions but were sufficiently dissatisfied that we decided not to use them again.
