I am completely pleased with the service received from Robin and her team at Longacre Flea Estate Sales. This was our first experience using an estate sales service, Robin explained everything. The contract was clear, and expectations thoroughly written out. Robin is professional, knowledgeable and worked in our best interest. Highly recommend Longacres Estate Sales read more

Leads you along to think she will do your estate sale then cancels on you at the last minute and leaves you screwed. DON'T TRUST HER!! read more

I love going to Robin's estate sales! Always unique items which are priced well. If I ever need someone to do an estate sale at my property, I wouldn't hesitate to ask Robin and her husband at Longacre Estate Sales! read more

Look. I don't write reviews. But I'm a really happy camper. Wow. What a find. Robin ran the estate sale for our neighbors who were moving into a retirement home. They did a wonderful job at preparing the home. Organizing and pricing and promoting and managing the sale. Much of it sold the first day. Nothing was left on the second day I was so impressed. I got on their mailing list and have been to a few of their local estate sales since. I love that she takes hundreds of pictures, so I know what's there. I've come to see how fair Robin's prices are. Things are priced to move. Great prices. I've found some incredible things. I bought a record player and classic Bing Crosby 78s.. some beautiful heavy kitchen bowls, a gorgeous desk from the 30s, and a large Christmas Village of homes and businesses. So much fun to find. I always say now that I should never buy anything new again! And Robin and her family are the nicest people. They've helped me pack up and don't hesitate to hold things for me when needed. I trust Robin. Her quality. Her pricing. I'm so glad I'm on her newsletter! Thanks Robin! read more

Longacre is the real deal for both the homeowner/seller and the shopper/buyer. We go to estate sales regularly and few businesses stand out as well run, organized, and fair. Longacre is one of them. For the homeowner/seller you can be confident that the items will be fairly priced. Robin knows values and does not undervalue items. But for the buyer if you want to deal and get a bargain, wait for the last day and she will bargain if the item is still there. I like that there is always something unusual and fun to find in her sales. She is very easy to work with and kind. If you see one of their sales, go! You won't be disappointed. read more

I'm not sure how this company is still in business in the greater Grass Valley/Nevada City area. Their reputation is dismal at best with many at local yard sales having conversations on just how Longacre pulled one on them, here's my story. Robin Longacre listed a tractor for sale on behalf of a client to which I thought the price was fair and made a deal to purchase the tractor. The deal was for me to pick it up a few days later (at her request) which was no problem as I needed to secure/rent a trailer to pick it up. The morning of the agreed day, I contacted Robin to get the time for pickup at which time she told me the deal was now off, that she wanted to take bids and that our agreed price was no longer valid (all of this in Facebook messages/writing that I still have to this day) Being a civil dispute, I had no recourse and decided to let the tractor and the deal go. Most would never visit her sales after that, but I'm a glutton for punishment, so I continued. A few sales ago, I decide to go early, be there when the door opens as the estate looks to have some neat items to purchase. I find there's a waiting list that you have to sign, giving you a number. I asked when the list comes out and she advises, sometimes the morning of, sometimes the day prior but when it is out, that the only way to get on it is to be there in person. She then starts talking about people on the list and how they message her prior as they are coming long distance and she has them in the first spots. She claims there are rules for estates when she gives her speech in the morning, but also doesn't adhere to her own rules and changes things on the fly. I say this as I've heard, yes hearsay, that she's changed rules set by homeowners of the estates to fit her needs. Seems to fit that if she can't follow her own rules, why would she listen to those given to her. Recently I went to another sale, locally. During the sale I was shown some stuff with prices, outlandish prices and was questioned had I seen them before. I hadn't but was told a homeowner hired Longacre to run an estate, who priced everything extremely high and then when it didn't sell, told the homeowner they'd clean out the property for a fee. So rather than making money for the homeowner, they overpriced items then try to charge to remove them (and potentially sell on their own for another profit). That homeowner obviously didn't allow this, and sold the lot where it ended up at another sale that I stumbled upon. This is the first I've seen evidence of it, but had always suspected it happening. Finally Robin priced a sale extremely high, not uncommon as mentioned above. I tried to negotiate which she said she would do at her opening speech, but in this case, she wouldn't budge. I didn't need the item, handed it to her and said that the price was to high for me at which time she lost her mind. It's talked about by many in the yard sale circles and laughed about by many, including myself. I said her pricing was to high, she said it was the first day of sale and that she didn't negotiate.... all while yelling as I walked away. Enter today. I go to yet another Longacre sale. I find something, a little high priced, but it's for me personally so I grab it. I walk up to Robin, show her her tag of $10 and hand her $20... no negotiation, I'm paying the price. She then says "Are we ok" to which I reply, yea I'm here, I'm buying your stuff at which point she starts a huge lecture abut how everybody was talking about our previous encounter. I reply back that she was upset that I didn't want to pay her high prices, take my $20, hand her the item and walk away, calling out her unfair deals/negotiation tactics to which she can't recall. I am now banned from any sale of hers, which is fine. But here's some tips for a potential way to actually get a fair negotiation. She gets flustered with lots of items. Put a pile in front of her and she will lose her mind, she can't add in her head, so she loses track. The more you buy, the better the deal with this tactic. More than 1 person in line, she can't handle it... again, this is when to approach for a deal. She can't add, is very unorganized (just look at the ball of money she pulls out when she get you change) and can't even present herself in a professional manner. If you're looking for an estate/liquidation company, go see how hers are ran before you agree to go with them. It amazes me as someone who has ran estates in the past, who has a family who regularly runs estates elsewhere that anybody ever contracts with her. All of this story may sound outlandish/vindictive or retaliation of deals gone sour. Feel free to go to other estates in the Grass Valley area, ask about Longacre. Many of those who are at the sale are regulars and will all have some story about how they've had a bad Longacre experience. Be warned, and remember if you do contract with Longacre Estate Sales, and are unsatisfied, I told ya so. read more

I go to estate sales from Reno to San Francisco, Longacre Flea is the best. I have been going to her sales for years, she has the best sales with the most stuff at great prices.

I would recommend anyone needing their services or wanting an amazing shopping experience call them you will not be disappointed. read more

We hired Robin & her family to help us with our Estate Sale. She was an excellent communicator & in spite of us changing the dates & asking for last minute updates, they pulled it off without a hitch! Holding a sale just a few weeks out from Christmas when Storms we're threatening & the fact our home was located in a rural area, didn't help. But to her credit, they pulled it off and wound up achieving an excellent result for us. I highly recommend Robin & her team of merry women & men should you need to sell some stuff! read more

Longacre Estate Sales was an answer to prayer! My sister's and I needed to clean out my parents home of 40+ years, in order to get it ready to rent. The physical task was daunting, but the emotional stress was even more difficult. Robin and Steve were extremely compassionate and basically held our hands throughout the entire process. They are professionals who know the worth of items and how to advertise and display in order to gain the optimum return for their clients. We were very pleased with the outcome and recommend Longacre without hesitation!! read more

I want to thank Robin and her husband for doing an incredible job of setting up and planning the estate sale at my parent's home. Robin was easy to work with and very professional, she handled every detail with precision and ease. Robyn was pleasant and patient with all of my questions, calls and texts. She knows the market and fair value prices. I would highly recommend their company and have done so already. read more
