As someone who just got burnt from an estate sale company for having a "pre" sale the day before the official day I can honestly say I will never go to any estate sale ran by companies that do that. I drove for an hour and waited 2 hours to be the first in line just to find out the items I wanted were all sold the previous day. Nope, won't waste my time on them.

Yes. Yes. And yes. It's fine that they do that but take the posted pictures AFTER you have let the "special" buyers through. Don't mislead people with items in pictures that aren't available. I totally understand your frustration.

Totally agree so unfair for the majority of buyers and also for the family.....This estate sale company will lose many of their former best customers...Too Bad

You should bring a large plastic bin that says sold on it, so when you want to make a pile, it’s not where people walk and so people know you want it and don’t start digging through your items. Then you have an easy way to take things to your vehicle

I use to run estate sales. You were so lucky to be the first. I'm in my 80's love to watch your videos and Kayla videos. I also had a shop. Would go to all the places you go. I can't do anymore but I love to shop with you. 😊😊

Matt, you make everyone you encounter feel good with your politeness and concern.

I always suspected many estate sale companies doing this. This is why I stopped going to them. I would make a list based on the pictures provided to find out that they were all gone even though I was one of the first ones there.

Tbh the what you paid vs what you expect is one of the best parts of watching videos like this taking that element out sort of ruins it, for all we know you made $100 or $10000 I understand keeping negotiations private or even final pricing but at least ballpark pricing make the video better imo.

I'm okay with this as long as none of these items are shown in the estate sale advertisements. Because, it would be very bad "IF" people are first in line to buy items that have been sold. With that said, this is another great video and I would love to have that opportunity.

This is gotta be one of the most luxurious estate sales out there

Wtf u mean we aint gonna know the price? Thats the whole point we all watch. What was the point in this video then?

Everyone is so upset but familys go through things before they have a estate sale. Im sure that was a family friend. More power to you Matt. I love those high quality sales.

This is an interesting dynamic! If his company is transparent that they do pre-sales everything is cool. A lot of companies arent transparent about it and its pretty disillusioning because you can be waiting hours before a sale opens only to learn it was already(secretly) picked over beforehand.

Happy for you! Wish it was me lol However this is why I dont go to sales by companies that presell 😢

Matt, you’re very gentle with others’ belongings. Nice to see you don’t rifle through with reckless abandon.

Sooo many things I wondered about like figurines and pottery and sooo much more! I hope that you make great profits on your picks!

"It's not like I paid pennies on the dollar, I paid estate sale prices"... then what is the point of not showing the prices you paid? And even if you actually did pay "estate sale prices" and decided for some unknown reason not to show it, the issue is still that the estate sale company let someone come in and pick many of the top items first...

The goal is to sell and who cares who gets there first. If you do not like the process of estate sales then do not go to them. Having pre sales probably happens more than you think. Matt is being honest on how he got into this sale. His video, his choice on what to share. I love his quiet demeanor at sales no matter who he is talking too. Matt is all CLASS. I learn from the knowledge he shares. Thanks Matt for making these videos.

Yes, having those connections with Mike the auction man is great.... Mike's crew did a fabulous job setting up, very organized sale... was very classy.

I'll stop going to this estate seller. I dont think it's fair to other sellers to pre sale. When they say on there ad no sale before the event. Last time I went I spent a few hundred. I think this is bad business. This is my opinion

I've watched MOSTLY ALL OF THESE TYPES OF VIDEOS YARD SALES PICKERS GARAGE SALE FLIPPERS ETC WHAT'S REALLY NICE ABOUT THIS GUY IS HES NEVER TRYING TO BE FUNNY OR EMBARRASSE ANYONE HES JUST POLITE STAYS PROFESSIONAL, BUSINESS ETC ,😅

Watched the whole video and we dont get prices at the end? With throwing a shout out to his store at the end must have been a good promotion deal.

Love your videos Matt. This was an amazing estate sale. You're going to make a lot of money on this one.

Those belts were fabulous…some of those buckle prices were amazing! I have never been to an Estate Sale. It was a very nice thing for your friend to do for you! I love all your videos💜!

Good for you on the score, but why would anyone want to hire that dude to sell their loved one's estate if he's just going to let his friends come in early and pick the most valuable stuff? He should be focused on maximizing the return for his clients, which cannot be achieved by giving early access to resellers. People who want those things for their own personal use are going to be willing to pay a lot more for them than you are.

A little jelly but do agree I wouldn't want resellers having first shot at it. There is value in getting a serious cash buyer in first to paying a premium price vs. chances of items getting stolen, damaged, marked down, or never sold at all. My guess is this had to of been cleared by the family first. No way they air this video if not...

​@One-Eyed Willy's Rich Stuff what's disrespectful is showing the estate sale company's faces. I would of blurred them if I wanted to protect them. But this is Matt's first time so he's learning

Estate Sales are often my favorite source. Good value for desirable items. Being selective on the area of the property, items are typically well cared for and some excellent vintage finds. This was indeed a fabulous niche for you.

there was a vitamix sitting on that table next to where you were talking about the quilts! sweet finds !

The "quilt lady" is so me. I love quilts, or anything handmade (needle point pictures), but have zero patience.

The horse racing stuff in there! 😳Also those horse statues, and the trophies?!! What the heck! I would have gone crazy in there! lol

I thought he looked familiar 😀 - I only source from Estate Sales and the ones I go to normally are Modesto, Turlock, Oakdale and surrounding areas. They are one of the more pricey estate sales around here - maybe that is why he is doing more your direction. Around here we also have a few others that will give REALLY good bulk deals BUT they don't do before sales to anyone - they stick with first come, first serve, so if you see it in the pictures, you see it at the sale too. Not saying anything bad about any of this - just other estate sales run differently - that many people are really use to around here . I am really glad he is finding places that take his prices better - it is great for his family he is selling for and I love his shop 😀 Estate sale and their people are the best - I personally think 😀 - I have 4 different companies around here that we will start standing in line at 4am because the deals are so good and they are such great people. We have made personal friends with many of them. Maybe I will see you around town 😀

Matt, this might not be a good thing as if people in this area see your videos of the sale see it, probably would not go if they knew it was picked before the sale was supposed to start. Good idea to do it but, better idea would be not to broadcast it , if you know what I mean! Would hurt his crowd at the sales . We have dealers here that do this and I will not go to their sales! Just my opinion, up to you what you do with it. Been on eBay for 26 years.

Watch all your videos!! This one had 😮me gasping for breath!! 😊 beautiful things! By far, the vintage leather carrying case!! Awesome pick!! I know you will do really well with all of the items you chose!!! Keep picking and we will keep watching!! From Texas

Always love your videos but have to say that I was disappointed not knowing what you paid for each item or even the total as you usually do. This wasn't the typical pick obviously. I've often wondered who got first dibs on estate sales I've been to. I know there's a lot left for others but....I still feel uncomfortable about this transaction. In the end, you're doing what you do to make a living. It's a moral thing for me. Would I do it if asked? I don't know.

Been watching your videos for 4 years a little disappointing with this one. Half the excitement is seeing what you pay. Will continue to watch but the other format is the best.

Hi Matt, major scores. That is the neatest, most organized estate sale I've seen.

Pre-sales for the friends, and resellers from estate sales is common where I live.

Just curious why would a estate sale company do pre sales? I can understand having a specialist coming in, and going through a large stack of baseball cards. But what's the benefit for them if they just allow someone to get first dibs on anything they want?

Incredible. But prices were full blown retail. People expect higher prices but this is really high. I would have gone nuts with all the Lladro, silver, tools and purses.

He seemed a real decent guy. I do hope you work with him again. Looks like you found some terrific stuff. High end, well looked after merchandise. Well done mate.
