Black Rock Galleries Offices - Fairfield, Connecticut

Grant and his team were AMAZING!!! They made downsizing a breeze. Every step of the way they were professional, knowledgable and extremely patient. Grant came t our home, went through the whole house assessing what items would be sold on their online platform and others would be sold via bidding. They handle the pictures, descriptions, pickup day for items won via bidding, pickup of all items they will be selling online and in store, and yes holding your hand through the process when it seems all so overwhelming in the middle of a move. You are truly in good hands with Black Rock Galleries. I would not trust my memories with any one else.

I had an incredibly disappointing experience with Black Rock Estate Sales. Christy, in particular, was extremely unprofessional and rude throughout the entire process. The company lost several of my valuable items, including a Fendi brooche, a Tiffany bracelet, and a gold pin with diamonds. These items were not even listed properly, and they were held at the property for over six months.

After repeatedly requesting their return, I was told that the items had been given back to me, which is absolutely false. I know for a fact they never were. This kind of dishonesty and negligence is completely unacceptable, and I feel completely taken advantage of.

I would strongly advise avoiding this company at all costs. They are untrustworthy, unprofessional, and irresponsible. Please be careful when dealing with them — I certainly won’t be using their services again!

Prior to entrusting an estate sale to BRG, my wife and I had been customers of their amazing retail showroom in Bridgeport, CT (don’t be fooled by the drab, industrial exterior – inside is a veritable treasure trove). I had considered some other estate sales companies, but none could match the broad capabilities, product knowledge, and professionalism of BRG. Plus Grant, the owner, is an antiques and collectibles savant! His knowledge and passion just blew us away. He’s also assembled a really nice, considerate, and knowledgeable team. I was dreading the day that all our stuff had to be cataloged and removed from the house but, within minutes of meeting the team, I was put at ease. They did an amazing job and, so far, the consignment sales have gone very well (we’re only about half way through). Based on my experience so far, I highly recommend BRG.

When we downsized, it was like a miracle to discover Black Rock. They accepted our best furniture that would have been hard for us to sell. They came and photographed it, wrapped it, and took it away, later showing it online. Two of ten items have sold and checks already received.

We are starting a family and buying from estate sales is a little daunting. But there is a piece we fell in love with, but were worried about transport. Not only was the Black Rock staff patient and understanding, they recommended a fantastic service (Horace) that was just as five-star. Overall, it's been an easy process to bid and buy. Our furniture (and other items) were delivered today and we are thrilled with everything. Will not hesitate to buy again in the future if something catches our eye.

BRG offers high quality items with plenty of high resolution photos. Web site is easy to navigate and bidding straight forward. I'm knocking stars because they almost never respond to questions about items made through the website. Each items has question mark icon to ask a question. Would be great if someone monitored the questions and responded. Again, otherwise really nice.

If your item is as portrayed, no problems. I have purchased a few items and not had a problem. I purchased a wool rug which had a hole and stains that were not shared during bidding. Emailed and called the day after I received the item and unwrapped. Emailed and called and after a week got through to Kristin. It has now been two weeks without a resolution or reply. Would not recommend. Buyer beware. As you can see from the reply below, Black Rock has answered my review but not me personally with a resolution in two weeks.

When faced with the realization that we wanted to downsize a home that had been lived in for over 30 years and that was filled with three generations of family collections and precious heirlooms we did not know how to begin or where to turn. Fortunately, we found and chose Black Rock Galleries to handle our sale.

What was a heart wrenching, stressful, physically and mentally difficult process was made so much easier by the guidance, expertise and professionalism of Christie, Grant, Rick and the wonderful Black Rock staff.

The sale from the first phone call to the final auction was seamless. BRG strategically planned our various collections to be sold at the most advantages times.

What at the beginning of this process we were so anxious about ended up being a great experience.

Thank you Black Rock Galleries you truly are the best!
