Janet Greene
Avoid her at all costs

Shops, Products, Services

I wanted to let everyone know about the experience I had with Janet Greene. She was recommended to me by a
relative, and as such I didn't do the proper background check on her. My mistake. I signed (a rather vague) contract with her for the estate sale of my mother in February.

She was very attentive and knowledgeable while looking over the items from the estate. She answered the phone when I called and she never was late for an appointment. I had no reason to suspect that anything was wrong. Janet called me at the end of March to tell me that she had sold off all of the items from the estate and that I would be receiving a check and
information about the sale within 5 business days. This all seemed fine because the contract stated that "accounting shall be available within 5 business days of the completion of the sale". Janet had told me that the sum was approximately $3,000. She didn't specify if that was the total sum of the sale, or if that was my cut of the sale after her fees.

That was when everything went wrong. I waited patiently for the check to arrive. I gave the post office time in case they were delayed. After several weeks I realized something was wrong. I called her many times in April to check she never answered her phone and she never returned a single voicemail I had left for her.

At the end of April I contacted the police and they told me that they had no recourse. They suggested that I sue in civil court. I contacted my lawyer and was informed that the legal fees would likely total to a sum greater than the value of the estate I decided that suing was an additional waste of my money and came to the conclusion that I just had a learning experience.

I do, however, want to make sure others out there know to avoid her at all costs. She appeared to be legit but it was simply a bait and switch. No matter who you use, make sure you take a full itemized inventory of everything being sold as well. I failed to do that and cannot remember every single knick-knack that was sold. Don't let yourself fall victim to this woman like I did.
