Welcome to the first post in our new blog. Our goal is to use this forum to present interesting, informative, and useful articles related to our business. We'll use this first post to introduce ourselves.
Who are we? If you arrived here via the link on our website, you already know; if you navigated here by another means and you don't know about our company, we invite you to visit our site at www.inthebagestatesales.com! We conduct estate, tag, moving, and downsizing sales throughout northern and central New Jersey.
Why use a professional? There are several compelling reasons to hire a professional: money, time, and resources. Money: a professional will generally be able to sell your items for 2 to 3 times more than you would get selling them on your own. Why? Because we have the knowledge and experience to correctly appraise your items. Time: Folks nearly always underestimate how much time is required to properly set up a sale. It often takes a week of full-time work to prepare for a sale. And it not just the physical set up of the house to consider--it's also issue like obtaining permits, advertising, appraising the value of unusual or rare items, etc. Resources: We do this full-time; we have the time and resources to dedicate to each and every sale to make sure that everything--from cleaning and displaying items, to crowd control--is done right.
I've decided to hold a sale. Now what? Whether you're bringing in a pro or planning to hold a sale yourself, the most important rule is this: don't throw anything away. No, we're not joking. Someone will buy that broken mirror for an art project. That table with a missing leg can be given new life as a workbench with some 2x4 legs. The broken electronics? Some folks know how to repair them (one of our owners has a background in electrical engineering; when he shops at sales as a customer, he looks for such bargains). Tools? Never throw them out. Even if you're not sure what they do.
We invite you to visit our site, www.inthebagestatesales.com to learn more about us and what we do.
