Services
B.Langston's Antiques & Liquidations was established as a result of the death of a parent. It was very hard emotionally, physically, and not to mention extremely time consuming to settle the estate. This event showed us that there was a need for a service to help people liquidate estates, downsize households and reduce the amount of items that needed to be moved.
You may be downsizing, moving out of state or liquidating an estate of a family member. Through expertise and integrity, B. Langston's provides unmatched antique appraisals and estate liquidation services in N.E. Our antique appraisals are expertly determined to maximize the value of goods for your intended purpose such as replacement value, fair market value, distribution, etc.
At some point in everyone's life, they find themselves in a situation that involves liquidating a home. As Barbara Langston knows from being in a similar situation with her own mother and father, it is very hard emotionally, physically, not to mention a time consuming effort is required to liquidate a household.
Whether you're selling or buying, it's good to know B. Langston's Auction House sells a larger variety of items than most other Jacksonville-area auctions. Not only does every auction offer high-end individual items and collections selling well into the thousands of dollars, every single auction we host is International, meaning that auction items receive the greatest amount of exposure possible.
At some point in everyone's life, they find themselves in a situation that involves liquidating a home. Our company's first-rate estate sale management and real estate services begin with personalized care, along with a fresh and creative approach.

I spoke to the owner and made an appointment for 1:30 on Tuesday. I arrived on time and proceeded to find all of the doors locked. I rang the doorbell twice and someone finally appeared and I explained that I was there for my 1:30 appointment with Mrs. Langston and she looked so puzzled I asked if I was at the address I had been given and she said yes and then said well she is not here I will be back and shut the door. After awhile a young man came and he said the same, that the lady I had made the appointment with was not there and they did not know about the appointment but that he would look

I wanted to sell furniture from my home - however I could not do a garage sale! I called Langston’s and they made an appointment to come and see what I had to sell. They calculated what they would pay and we set a date for pickup. I was happy with pricing, promptness and courtesy. All in all they provided a great service and even agreed to switch out something that I had forgotten to keep from being packed into the pods! Thank you Anthony and Barbara for making my move that much better!

Had to clear out our parents senior living condo after they passed away. We contacted multiple other companies that couldn't or wouldn't help us in the time we had. Bid was a little low for the contents but they were on time and completed the job as promised. They even did a light cleaning before they left.

Worst auction house ever! I will never purchase an item from this place again! If I could give them zero stars, I would.
I purchase a several items at an auction in December, 2020 and the items were shipped for a reasonable $8 fee. In January, 2021, I purchased one $70 item at another auction that was similar in size to the previous three items and I had to pay $49.68 for the shipping! I called them three times and they said they would "look into it". Finally received a response after the third call and they said, "that is the cost of the shipping".
I will never purchase another item from B.

This morning 06/22/2020, I made an appointment to sell a collection. At first I dealt with a young, dark haired and bearded young man . We agreed on three items and verbally agreed on a price(me to sell him to buy). I then had the same young man appraise 7 other items. When the young man was almost finished an older man (the owner) walked in and we spoke. I introduced myself and the owner instructed the young man to finish appraisal.
When the agent and owner finished discussion on how much they would offer for all ten items.
The owner came back alone. He didn't really know or acknowledge

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!! We contracted with them and they started setting up table and pricing items for 3 days. Last night at 10:15 they called and said all of our stuff was garbage and they would not make money. This after writing up a contract and already starting to set up. they offered us a very low sum of money to take items off our hands. We told them no and to leave. They had already take Snow Babies and Precious Moments out of boxes and left them. Our house is a disaster with what they left. Turned the air down to 72 and all ceiling fans on high. Real kicker, contract was

This is a disreputable business. The conduct of their estate sales is unprofessional, their recordkeeping is a shambles, and they do not pay the property owners within the time allotted by the contract. They do not return calls or correspondence. Please save your family the frustration and sadness, and work with someone else.

I could not tell you the last time that I had such a bad customer service, that it warranted me writing up a bad review. I found this company to be incredibly unprofessional, rude, and uncommunicative. They have made an already stressful move into somewhat of a nightmare.
I reached out to this company over three weeks ago regarding some items that I would like to sell off in preparation of my move. A gentleman showed up 20 days ago, looked at the items, and we agreed on a price. Since then, I have reached out to the company over 20 times to try to orchestrate a day for them to come and pick up

This consignment shop carries a nice traditional range of products that always appear very clean and well-kept. I check in once every two months seeking items for my etiquette class. Depending on who is working that day the staff can appear preoccupied but I have always receive good service and a welcome when I enter the door.

You won't be disappointed if you chose Langston's for your estate sale! I highly recommend Barbara & her team. They staged everything beautifully, advertised in all the right places, had a huge turnout & sold 95%. Her knowledge & resources about so many items was amazing; along with her honesty, compassion and understanding for our family through the whole process. It was a pleasure working with them!

Silly me, I did not see the reviews on Langston estate sales until it was to late. Barbara was very nice and knowledgable when she came to my home to set up my estate sale as we sold our house. The sale was set up for a Friday and Saturday. All the items not sold were to be out of the home by Sunday night, as I had a cleaning crew coming early Monday morning. I went over Sunday night and was beyond shocked. They might have sold one tenth of the available items. I noticed the price tags. Things were so over priced, I am surprised anything sold. I called the shop no one to talked to. I begged

Best antique shop in Jacksonville! Amazing service, I felt right at home. Great auctions, amazing sales, neat shop! Will not go anywhere else for antiques! Great people! I bought a couch this week from the store at the amazing sale that they had. The only problem is that I have a Ford Focus and wasn't able to fit in in my car. They kindly provided me with a card to a moving company that wasn't to expensive. They came and picked it up and brought it right to my door. The best part of it all is that Chuck took care of it all I didn't even have to worry about it.

I am writing this review as I am so blown away by the outstanding service and assistance I received from Barbara and her staff. This is the only business I am aware of that is available 24/7. I once made the mistake of going to another busines, and I got screwed. I called Barbara and she not only helped me get out of the mess,but took care of my appraisal needs. I have found that when I have mentioned her business, other people have said positive things, when I have recommended her business to others they have been happy with her and her staff. There are so many positives thank you

I wish I could give them less than 1 star. The owner, Barbara is the rudest person I have ever had the displeasure of working with. They did not clean up after themselves and we ended up having to pick up someone else's trash. They brought an entire house full of other people's junk to sell at our estate sale. And trying to get the money after the sale took many phone calls, which were not returned in a timely manner. Do yourself a favor and run, not walk, away from these people. Not sure that it gets much worse than this.
