    Estate Sale Evolution

    Dallas estate sales get easier and more lucrative with this company

    For those suddenly faced with a house full of furnishings to unload, there is an online service coming to Dallas that takes the traditional estate sale to new levels of efficiency and profitability. Everything But The House, the 7-year-old Ohio-based online personal property and estate sale provider, will launch here at the end of April or early May, according to a spokesperson.

    Here's how it works: The company provides turnkey service for your estate sale, including assessing the inventory, taking photos, holding the seven-day online auction, and dispersing the items either in person or by shipping. Bids start at $1 for all items, and your auction is one of 50 to 60 hosted each month. Everything But The House takes 35 percent of proceeds.

    According to company stats, its 350,000 monthly visitors come from all 50 states and 46 countries — a much bigger pool of buyers than your fellow Dallasites.

    The company quotes average estate sale proceeds of $27,000. However, if you're considering an estate sale, be realistic about your possessions and their sales potential. That 20-year-old sofa just might not be in the same league as, say, the $89,000 that a 2004 Major League Baseball World Series ring brought to a savvy seller.

    Categories of sale items include furniture, art, cars, books, jewelry, clothing, sports memorabilia, pottery, rugs and, well, everything but the house. Online treasure hunters can search by city, category or sale date.

    Everything But The House is a hybrid of online-only and in-person business. The selling and transactions take place online, while the sorting, cataloging and distribution of the items require hands-on attention. The company is hiring full-time employees in Dallas to help handle the business in this new market, including public previews of sales. Those interested in selling their items can submit a query.

    The formula appears to be working. The company says it increased sales by 43 percent between 2012 and 2013 and posted sales of nearly $14 million in 2014. It also attracted $13 million in funding from investors last fall. Other cities on the expansion plan in addition to Dallas include Atlanta, Boston and Washington, D.C.

    Convinced yet? When it's time to part with your stuff either by choice or necessity, Everything But The House offers just about everything but the hassle.

    Cool wine bar and gift shop opens in novel storefront in East Dallas

    A super-cool wine bar and gift shop is opening in a novel location in East Dallas: Called I Want That One, it'll open at 2410 N. Haskell Ave., where it will combine wine tastings, gift shop, and art space all in one.

    Located across from the Target at Haskell & US-75, the address used to be home to a florist called The Peonies Shop. The unique part is that it's in a row of very nice storefronts on the street level of a public storage facility — a scenario you don't see too often.

    It's slated to open at the beginning of June.

    I Want That One is from partners Graham and David Bond, who share a passion for wine, travel, and art. David is an airline pilot and Graham has a long history in retail, serving in management for companies in Europe, South Africa and the US including Fossil and Macy's.

    "I worked in retail for most of my career, and always wanted to have my own business," Graham says. "I'm passionate about art, wine, and especially 'experiential' retail. For me, the experience you have wherever you are shopping is what makes you go back."

    With a strong focus on customer service, the shop will be a place to find wine, special gifts, and items for the home. Their home décor and gifting selections are sourced from various countries and manufacturers that Graham has met over the years of travel, leveraging the relationships built over his many years in retail and wholesale.

    A preview of their merchandise reveals dreamy overstuffed pillows in bright colors; chic wine glasses with an ombre colored finish; and one-of-a-kind art objects, often rendered with a tongue-in-cheek wit. For example: blue-and-white ceramic tiles that evoke the famous Delftware, but instead of the traditional ornate flowery patterns, the tiles feature modern images like headphones, chihuahuas, Jeeps, and Doc Martens boots.

    They're especially excited about the wine selection they'll offer.

    "We have a wine license and can buy direct from wineries, which means we can bring in small boutique wines not found everywhere else in Dallas," Graham says. "We have some good wine connections, and love the idea of partnering with winemakers to come visit and talk about their wines."

    They'll offer wine by the glass and in flights, as well, at a small, fabulously furnished wine bar painted deep cobalt blue, with a white marble top and tastefully muted orange bar stools, beneath a row of whimsically-placed hanging light bulbs, each with a different colored cord.

    Their other goal is to champion local art, by serving as a gallery for artists, providing an unexpected place to host showings of their work. They'll post their finds on Instagram, highlighting new art, artist events, and wine happenings.

    "We liked the idea of exploring a new area," Graham says. "An opportunity arose in this space, and a good friend has a business in the space next door. That area gets a lot of traffic, with the Target and Kroger and all of the retail there, along with a growing residential population in that part of town. And there's the potential for synchronicity — that little strip has a nail salon and a pet grooming place. You could drop off your pet and come shop or have a glass of wine."

    "It's about having a place where wine lovers can taste some wine, or attend fun, unique events, with the idea of sharing some of the things we're passionate about," he says.
