FAQs
How do I get started selling my items?
The first step is to call our buyer directly at 941-376-9444. During this first phone call we will ask you some basic questions about what you are looking to sell, and determine if a housecall is appropriate. House calls are always complimentary!
Why should I sell to Past Times?
With over a decade of experience, we are proud to have repeat customers coming back to us year after year to sell because of our knowledge and fair prices.
How will Times Past pay me?
We pay in cash or check depending on what works best for you.
What if I’m overwhelmed with too much stuff and I don’t know what is valuable?
This is the most common circumstance we help with, don’t worry! Have you inherited a house full of items to sort through, or do you just need to downsize before a move? This is the exactly why we do free house calls.
Whats the biggest mistake people make?
We have heard it countless times before: “We didn’t think that was valuable so we got rid of it.” Don’t donate or throw anything away before calling us! Those old jeans with the holes and stains could be original Levis from the 1920s. The vase Grandma brought back from her travels that has been gathering dust? It’s worth checking with a professional.
