It did not go well. I was moving and I allowed them to pick up from my home approximately 2 1/2 truckloads of custom furnishings; 2 sets of custom bedding including duvet covers, filler, decorative pillows and dust ruffles; various antiques; costly silk trees (14 ft+ and others valued at between $500+ and $2000+); numerous custom floral arrangements (some were very large and cost over $800+); 2 suites of bedroom furniture (vintage queen brass bed, antique end tables; antique trunk, Scan Design full king size platform set with triple dresser and chest); large cast iron urns leather Chesterfield sofa in excellent condition; full office set with desk, console, rolling office chair, wood lateral file; outdoor patio furniture (dining and end tables, chairs, chiminea, precast antique bench reproduction, various antique reproduction garden statuary and wall hanging) 7 extra oversized decorative doormats; floor and table lamps; rugs; pine hanging shelves; numerous antique oil lamps; numerous home dec accessories (a houseful) including large, decorative finials, decorative glass, large, decorative candlestick sets, decorative leather boxes, hand carved decorative accessories; 3 full sets of dishware plus various other dishes and serve ware. The list goes on.
I was told that all of my merchandise would be labeled with my tag as it came off the truck and that I would receive a check the following week. Disappointingly, this did not happen. My merchandise was not labeled; nor, it appears, was merchandise turned over by others. I never received a full accounting for my merchandise. And, included in my accounting was merchandise that others had given to them to sell. They were simply labeled "choice lots", "choice box lot", "whole table", and there was no way of identifying what had been "grouped for sale" in those lots. When I confronted the owner, Jason, about this; he told me that he was embarrassed. He said that he could not figure out what was included in these "lots". He told me that he had given away the full sets of custom bedding because it's hard to get people to buy used bedding. He should have told me that before I sent the merchandise out to his company. There were many things that he told me that he gave away with something else or grouped with something to sell. I received $50 for a queen size vintage brass bed. He said that he can't control how much anything sells for. He's the auctioneer! Are they starting these auctions at $10 or are they amateurs who can't handle the business?
The company takes 35% of all sales. I knew that going in, and that's fine. But, I wanted a full accounting. And, I expected the sales to be for reasonable amounts. For these reasons, I do not recommend this company. If I had been aware of their business practices before I dealt with them, I wouldn't have.
I never received more than a pittance of the value of my items; and

A picture was sent with the query.
Me: "Is this a refrigerated wine storage unit?"
Mr. Zeek: "this will be sold on Saturday at auction at 4pm. It will be sold to the highest bidder."
Duh. Of course it will be sold to the highest bidder, but was my question addressed?
Since the auction house is not convenient to my part of town, I now know that I needn't bother to come, since I
don't know what, exactly, is being sold.

I am quite happy with my experience with Orlando Estate Auction. They have a nice website that is easy to navigate. The building itself is large and air conditioned. It is always full of interesting items. You really never know what they will be selling! They sell cars, antiques, artwork, furniture, lawn mowers...They sold one for me...And lots of other items. A+

I have been pleased with the service I received. They have a large air conditioned building, lots of parking and a friendly staff. I have given them items to liquidate for me; they sent me the check the following week. I was happy with the results.
