Perhaps you’ve seen those estate sale signs on a road junction and wonder if they’re worth your time. Well, you’re not alone. Ideally, estate sales are good for making some extra cash and clearing out any items you’re no longer using. Additionally, they can also be challenging and tiresome to run if you don’t have the proper understanding of how estate sales work. You also need to understand what makes them successful. Planning an estate sale may take longer than expected, especially if it’s your first time. We recommend giving yourself a month or so if you have time. But exactly how does it work? We advise following the following steps to help in the planning and get through the sale smoothly.
Prices plummet for Super Bowl tickets

Two hungry fan bases and the wealth of the New York metropolitan area had some guessing that Super Bowl XLVIII would turn out to be the most expensive ticket in Super Bowl history.
However, judging from the reaction of the resale ticket market in the past 24 hours, it could turn out to be one of the least expensive.
On Friday, nine days before the Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks meet at MetLife Stadium, the cheapest ticket to buy for the Super Bowl was $1,779 on NFL Ticket Exchange, the league’s official resale site. That’s $409 cheaper than it was on the site with this many days left last year and $809 cheaper than the year before.
Since the conference championship games ended, ticket prices have steadily plummeted. The get-in price on the NFL Ticket Exchange was $2,700 on Monday.
A sign of concern for brokers?
Julia Vander Ploeg, general manager of Ticketmaster’s resale business, which runs the NFL Ticket Exchange, said the number of tickets on the market has increased by 10 percent in the past 48 hours. And that’s before the NFL has even given the physical tickets to the majority of people the league is taking care of.
“What we have now is like a panicked stock market,” said James Kimmel, owner of Epic Seats, a ticket brokerage in Seattle. “The buyers have frozen, and the sellers are panicking.”
