Madeline - Closed the house today. Thanks so much for all your hard work and real results! Your suggestions and referrals especially Leible were outstanding. And the tag sale was a success - not to mention the sale of a used car and an engagement ring! And the pool table and the piano (Buyer brought a bank check and was so appreciative that I left the framed TV) He is now selling his house in New Hyde Park so you may want to congratulate him. Regards to Bob and the whole Full of Surprizes team. Please feel free to use me as a reference. Your good reputation really does precede you and you came through in so many ways. Kind regards.

My husband and I had a tag sale in December with Full of Surprizes. We had very difficult circumstances to deal with at the time. Madeline and her staff were gracious and supportive besides being excellent at the job at hand. Our tag sale was handled with professionalism and great organizational experience. We were very pleased with the results. My husband and I recommend them highly. They are the best!
