<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Northern Lights Lodge, post: 11526834, member: 13464&quot;]I&#039;m sure [USER=36]@evelyb30[/USER] !! The way he handles sales just doesn&#039;t make sense to me and although this particular sale had to go through probate (as there were only a few cousins); the fact that he dissed so much of the estate infuriated me! I&#039;ve disbursed many estates and we tried our BEST to recoup every dime of the estate for the decedents... this guy just made me mad!</p><p><br /></p><p>I offered to walk through another estate for a young friend of mine. I told her that I&#039;d give her suggestions as to what had value and what didn&#039;t; and I wanted nothing for my services. She chose not to. They had the Amish come in and do an auction - and I get that - as they had a lot of farm equipment and machinery, barn items, etc. BUT, the house was full of collectibles and old country items. </p><p><br /></p><p>The house was our good friend&#039;s relation - through the woods from his property and off the main road. I knew they had moved a dumpster in and I was curious as to what they dumped. So, picking berries one day, I wandered back there and @@ eyeballs popped out of my head! The HUGE dumpster was absolutely full! And come to find out, the friend had &quot;helped&quot; by patting down the stuff in the dumpster with the back hoe! So the collectible statuary on top was smashed! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/frown.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":(" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Well, I _had_ to look! I pulled out musical instruments, scouting gear, collectibles, vintage fabric and trims, a huge box of vintage 1900&#039;s Christmas ornaments, all dry items... the list was massive! I filled my van. Then went home and called the friend (he was working) and told him what I&#039;d done and he said &quot;they won&#039;t care - they threw it out!&quot; Apparently, they didn&#039;t. </p><p><br /></p><p>So, I guess sometimes, it pays off to be in the right spot at the right time.</p><p>Cheerio,</p><p>Leslie[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
