Run from this company1:
Don't Toss it Ross It - Appropriate for an auction company that treats consignments like they are trash. I am from the Midwest and very familiar with the auction process. When my mom passed away I did what one does in the Midwest...call the local auction company to sell the items we could not keep. After getting a ridiculous check I told my parent's neighbors of my disappointment and they told me I was mislead believing these people had done this auction since 1921. The fact is they bought an old Colorado Springs company and had no experience AT ALL with selling estate items, used furniture, antiques or anything else for that matter. When the Ross family came up with this slogan they were not expecting to get trash consigned and they didn't intend to treat family property as trash. Things have obviously changed at Ross Auction. Great place to buy for resale, worst place to sell! If this is the best in town donate to Goodwill and take the deduction!

Rude, Disrespectful, Arrogant, & Condesending:
Had them pick up my dad's estate. Didn't read the contract till I got my meager part of the proceeds. Wow, what a shocker. Feel like they really should have explained they would get the lions share after they sold Dad's stuff for peanuts. Something missing here! How could they have stayed in business since 1921 treating people like that?
