<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sassafras, post: 2705849, member: 6320&quot;]We do 25-30 estate sales a year and always run them on Friday &amp; Saturday from 9:00-3:00. There have only been a handful of occasions that I&#039;ve done a sale that includes Thursday. The people who came on Thursday were the same ones who normally come on Friday (dealers &amp; retirees for the most part). Didn&#039;t see a benefit to it, since it just caused light traffic on Friday. The volume of customers didn&#039;t change, but the cost we incurred for staff did. It also took away a day that I could be setting up another house. </p><p><br /></p><p>Two sale days is generally sufficient to clear a house. When we do sales for businesses, we run them on Friday &amp; Saturday over two weekends. As far as when people come, Friday mornings are busiest due to the best selection and Saturday afternoon for the best deals.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I think it all depends on your location though. We&#039;re in a metro area of roughly 500,000 people. That&#039;s a pretty large buyers pool! If it were rural and customers had to travel a distance to get there, I can see how Thursdays might help.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
