numbers

If you are a new consumer to professionally run estate sales, sometimes the rules and number's
policies can be a bit of a mystery. Although we post all of our policies at our sales, we designed
this page to inform new consumers of the terminology used in our ads and at the sales.

What are Temporary or Pre-Numbers?

Occasionally, persons wanting first or second numbers, etc., arrive early and hand out their own
temporary numbers. Most people find the temporary numbers to be helpful in maintaining an
orderly system until the official numbers are passed out. Heritage Estate Sales, Inc. does not issue
these temporary numbers. The responsibility of the temporary numbers and the rules associated
with them, are solely that of the people in line. You still need to line up in order and receive your
official number from an employee of our company.

What are Numbers?

Numbers are used at sales to maintain order upon the opening of the sale. Each person who
arrives prior to the sale opening on the first day, must have a number. We do not continue to hand
out numbers after the sale has opened. When receiving a number from us, we will distribute one
number per person only. We ask that you get in line, by number, no later then 10 minutes prior to
the opening of the sale. If you are not present when your number is called, your number is no longer
valid and you must go to the back of the line. Please understand, it is not fair to those consumers
who have waited patiently in line until their number is called.

We are often asked how many people we will let into the sale at one time. This is not a question
easily answered. How many people we let into a sale will be determine by how full the sale is, how
quickly the consumers move through the sale and how many people we can SAFELY allow to enter
the sale without damage to people and property. We will always let in as many people as safely
possible. We want your shopping experience to be a fun and rewarding one.

Other Policies

All sales are final. Everything is sold AS-IS. Please inspect your purchases carefully before you
buy them as there are no refunds or exchanges.

We accept cash and check (with 2 forms of I.D.). Visa, Master Card, Discover and American
Express are also accepted methods of payment for purchases over $25.00.

Please provide your own help to move large and heavy objects. Our workers can not assist with
moving items due to insurance reasons. All items purchased must be removed from the sale during
sales hours. (With the exception of pianos, pool tables and other large objects that require
specialty movers.) We appreciate your understanding.

If you have any further questions about our policies, please feel free to call us or ask to speak with
the manager on duty at the sale. We hope you have found this page informative.

We look forward to seeing you at our next sale!
