I do not understand why my positive review of KS Estate Sales in under the "not recommended" reviews section of the reviews. I only see the negative comments. All the positive comments are under the "not recommended" reviews section. Please leave my positive review up for fairness. Past Review: "Always enjoy going to the KC Estates Sales, very professional, always willing to assist me with answering my questions. They always seem to be very busy which is a testament to their business. Pricing is consistant with the market and discounts are generated daily per normal estate sales discounting. Worked with me on bundling items at the discounted rates. Works to generate a business friendly atmosphere. Overall, I think it is a well run business. Works to do the best possible job for the estate and works to do the best for the customers buying. Keep up the great work." read more

Went to a K C Estate Sales and found EVERYTHING over priced. I am sure not to use them if I ever have an estate sale.

We made the mistake of hiring KC Estate Sales for our sale in College Hill years ago. The evening before we were to leave for Arizona and our new home, the owner, Carolyn Moshier, showed up with a truckload of unsalable junk from her past sales. The stuff she brought in was an embarrassing distraction from the quality furniture and antiques that filled our 3-story home. When I explained my displeasure and pointed out we did not want garage sale leftovers added to our sale, she flippantly said we could hire someone else, knowing full well we were leaving Wichita the next morning. She knew our N. Broadview address was a draw for estate sale customers, and abused our trust. Frankly, I am amazed to see she is still in business. read more

This company overcharged me $100 at an estate sale using a Square on the phone. I've called and sent them email and they do not respond. Without any response, I can only conclude that they're robbers. AVOID AVOID AVOID. read more

Updating my last review after the owners corrected an overcharge. Need to update phone numbers and email addresses that are posted online or to check them more correctly. They are refunding the overcharge I paid. read more

Attended day 1 of estate sale with everything at full price. Had to go through back yard via dirt/grass. Found two items and decided to bid 45% off so I would get them before day 3 at 50% off if not sold by then. Even checked with estate sale people and they assured me they would accept the bids before day 3 if still unsold. Went back on day 3 after previous day rain and everyone tracked in mud from backyard all through the house. Items I wanted were still there so bought at 50% off. Thus they deprived the estate of a higher price. read more

KC Estate Sales are not only shady, they bulk up their sales from other estate sales with items that they failed to sell. KC Estate sales ran an estate sale for my great aunt and attempted to sell of property that did not belong to the estate in the estate sale. Luckily, the property that she was trying to pilfer was owned by a WPD officer and so there wasn't a lot she could do about it when he came to retrieve his things. KC will also remove items from the sale (before the sale) and pack them into one of her warehouses to sell at a later date so that she can undercut the families that she runs estate sales for. read more

Carolyn was very difficult to work with! She changed the date of the sale without asking me. She brought in so much other stuff that she was more worried about all of it selling rather than the stuff at the home. I've found out months after that she was saying mean things about me to customers! She ended up taking items that didn't go in the sale and I have been working for months trying to get everything replaced. When your grieving, the last thing you need is a spiteful and mean person helping with your estate sale. She was very heartless and made everything all about the money and did not take into consideration at all what we were going through. She also made promises that she would clean when she was done with the sale and they didn't even dust or mop. I would never recommend her! read more

Love this group. Reasonable prices and very helpful. Things are very well organized and easy to see. They are very hard working as you can see from the way the sell is set up. I don't like that they close at 4pm but I can make it work. read more

Went to an estate sale today ran by KC Estate sales and it was so filthy and unorganized. I didnt even want to touch the merchandise because the entire place was dirty. read more

Like most estate sales, every room in the home was packed full. Many smaller items weren't marked. It would be so much easier if everything was marked, or small items were grouped together in lots with one price. The garage had a lot of junk in it that no one would buy. I heard many comments from shoppers that the prices were too high and I thought the same. The goal is to sell everything and clear the house, not have a house full of stuff leftover. It's used, not new! read more

I used Carolyn for the sale of my parents estate and she has been horrible to work with!! If you want to work with Cruella, then she's your lady! She changed the date of the sale with out consulting me at all, she constantly was very hard to work with and refused to communicate with me what was going on. She acted like she owned the home and gave my garage code to people without my knowledge. She is not professional at all!! Then when it came to money at the end she refused to tell me even an idea of what we made, after repeated attempts of asking her, she instead just mails a check. If you are grieving she is not sympathetic to anything you might be going through. She had people parking on my lawn possibly breaking sprinkler heads. She also will say things to get you to agree to the sale and not carry through on her end, for example saying she will have the house cleaned when the sale is over. They didn't dust, mop, clean carpets, or wipe out the cabinets. My 11 year old could have run the vacuum and cleaned the way they did. read more

I've been too several estate sales KC'S sales are typical of others. the prices are fair, employees are courteous and they always have a bid box on hand if you don't like the price,of course you take the chance of me out bidding you read more

Wow. Just had a bad experience at a KC Estate Sale. It's the afternoon of the last day of the sale (50% off!), so maybe that's why the staff seemed cranky, but that's no reason to go off on a customer. I found a plastic headpiece with the office supplies. It was meant to have a magnifying lens in the front, which was missing, so it was marked just 50 cents. In looking around in the miscellaneous stuff on the other shelves, I found the missing plastic piece. I showed it to my husband and he snapped it back into place. So I decided to buy it, took it to the front desk and the woman at the cash register said "25 cents." But a woman next to me, a little white-haired woman who was wearing a "KC Estate Sales" apron (and, by her manner, probably the manager), snapped, "That's not right. That's not what it was marked..." implying, to my ears, that I had switched price tags. So I said, "Do you want to know why ... " and she interrupted me and said "No!" I still went on to tell her I found the missing piece and put it in place, and then she said now it was worth more than that. Although I would have been willing to pay a little more, I was so put off by her accusatory manner that I decided to leave it there, and I told her I thought that was "cheesy" that she was going to increase the price (15 minutes before the end of the sale). Then she told ME that if I was more respectful (?) I would listen to what her new price would be. It just really put me in a bad mood. Her accusatory attitude put me into a funk. I usually like poking around in estate sales, but it's no fun when the people working it are surly. I was pleased that I'd put the pieces together and made it functional again, rather than two disparate and useless elements, and I hope that it finds its way to someone who will continue to use it rather than get trashed. Not sure I'll go back to a KC Estate Sale again. Maybe that woman was just having a bad day, and they all probably have to deal with difficult customers, but she didn't need to attack me, which is what it felt like. I'll stick with the R&R (Rosemary and Ron) Estate Sales or Becky's Estate Sales. Sometimes they look frazzled by the end of a sale, but they are unfailingly pleasant and helpful. read more

Although this group has some concept of antiques and other estate items, they regularly ignore market trends, which leads to overpricing of items. They range between nonchalance and outright discourtesy to their customers. I have been to dozens of their sales and have come to my opinions based upon multiple interactions with the company. To put it succinctly, I do not go out of my way to make it to their sales. read more

Every time I have been to a KC estate sale, all the items are insanely over priced. You would think that by the 3rd day of a sale, most the good stuff would be gone. But no, the house is usually still full of junk that is priced around retail value. The employees are usually unpleasant and will not negotiate prices. I seriously question the vadiality of their knowledge of what is considered antique and the value of the items they are trying to sell. Basically, KC estate sales are complete rip offs and I will avoid attending them. read more

KC Estate Sales has been in the estate sale business for a long time. But, for all that experience, it is one of the worst estate sale companies in town. Many things are not priced and about 3/4 of the time, they have to call Carolyn (the owner) to get a price over the phone. Usually that price is outrageously high. I go to all the estate sales and none of the others do things this way. Sometimes you have to dig through lots of junk and if its something that they decide is valuable the prices goes sky high even though they had it priced in a $2 pile. They had a bunch of books at one sale and they were priced $7 each (which is pretty high). But, there was a book I really wanted. It contained some prints by the artist (they were part of the book) and they wanted to charge me $7 each. When I argued but ended up agreeing, they called Carolyn and she priced them at $600 EACH. Not six dollars, but SIX HUNDRED dollars. They mark tons of things as "mid century modern" when they are not even close. I found a radio they labeled as bakelite and mid century modern for $150. On the bottom it was marked Radio Shack and was dated 1988. These are just a few examples. Every time I go to their sales, I get frustrated. Carolyn's daughter has started working at the sales and she is a little better, but still doesn't price everything and marks things up once a customer is interested in them. If you find something that is marked as being by a certain maker, double check it before you buy. I bought a chair that they was Hermann Miller. It wasn't. Sometimes they have things labeled as new that have clearly been used. I have quit going to their sales because its either a fight over the price or its frustrated because they are claiming that things are what they are not. read more
