Our family has been using R &J Enterprise for 19 years. They work very hard for each tag sale. We highly recommend them.

They can have nice, interesting things, but they price everything too high, like high enough that even if they cut prices in half on Sunday they're often still too high! I wonder if it's partly due to the couple running the sale (who are brusque to the point of near rudeness) being elderly and out of touch with current prices. They seem to price things at the price they were originally bought at. Sorry, but a generic, small set of Oriental style dishes from Target wasn't even 20 when it was first bought, and isn't worth anywhere near that now. Probably why it and SO many nice things are still there at the end of the day at their sales. Today, I just felt bad for the owners of the house or their kids- it was such an ineffective sale. I was driving past, remembered I could use another muffin pan, but it wasn't until I was inside that I remembered I'd stopped making an effort to attend their sales because of their bad pricing (even for everyday items, i.e. 1/used washcloth) and the angry owners (the rest of the staff can be VERY nice).
Great tag sale company! I have gone to MANY tag sales over the years and I like the ones run by R and J the best! They always have nice items. The owners work very hard to have nice sales.
I have to agree with two of the previous reviews. I went to a sale they were running this weekend. The man and old lady running this sale are RUDE, especially her. No patience, no kindness whatsoever. She acts as if you're bothering her. One lady on the first floor (pretty with glasses, didn't get her name), the lady upstairs at the jewelry case and especially Henry (who always seems to be put in the basement) were very nice. Henry went out of his way to be helpful. Then there was a very small lady ... she seemed to be EVERYWHERE I went. Very pushy. Accused me of not letting them write up something I had in my hand (I hadn't decided if I wanted it yet, which I told her) and barged in to my conversation with Henry saying there were two of something when there was only one ... butt out, lady. This lady MUST be related to the one running the sale because she was just as rude. I've noticed how different the attitudes of the people running this business are from people running other sales, but this day it was directed at me ... and I DID NOT appreciate their rudeness. So, yes, I will spread the word as I'm doing now. And, Henry ... find another group to work for who will appreciate you.
We went to a tag sale today run by R & J Enterprises. We have a 5 lb. chihuahua that we take everywhere, and we go to tag sales every weekend, and no one has ever said anything about him being with us. In fact, they all fawn over him and ask if he is for sale! Well, walked into this sale and a woman barked at us from across the room - 'No dogs!' I had the dog in my arms - I don't let him run around when we are at these sales. Always carried. She yelled again - 'No dogs! They bite!' Sorry - my dog doesn't bite - but I might. I informed her I would take my dog and my money elsewhere and we left. I can understand not wanting a huge drooling dog in the house, but a tiny hand held one? This woman lost potential sales for her client, not to mention being rude. Will never stop at another sale run by this company. Would give less than one star if I could. UPDATE: Well, in my earlier review, I said I would never go to another of their sales. Well, we have, over the last 3 years. But today was just the last straw. This time I really mean it - never again! Had nothing to do with our dog. It was just simply the fact that the woman who runs these sales is the rudest, snootiest bi - person - I have ever met. She never smiles, doesn't want to negotiate (unless you're her buddy), and prices all her stuff way too high! She acts insulted if you offer a penny less than her inflated estimate, like it's her own personal stuff for sale. I don't mind if you turn down my offer, but don't snap at me when you do it! Tag sales are Sunday enjoyment for us - don't need the grief this woman dishes out.
I have never been spoken to quite so rudely as at the Akron sale today. I was without cash to cover my purchase but had check, the checkout assistant rudely barked “And?” and proceeded to suggest I continue shopping or go to my bank (the sign stated minimum charge 25 for credit/debit cards but didn’t specify that for personal checks). She called over another woman who said absolutely not could I charge the payment (I said nothing about wanting to charge, I wanted to pay by check) because she is charged 3.5%. I would have been willing to have her add that charge into my payment, however the rudeness and distinct lack of interest in my purchasing items left me with no option but to leave without. I personally am charged 2% when making sales using a debit/credit card and I would never dream of telling a customer this - the customer doesn’t care what you are charged, if you are in the business to make money, and want repeat business, you work out a way to do that. How dare you speak to me with such an belligerent tone. Incredibly rude. You can rest assured I will never shop at one of your sales and I would recommend future sale attendees and potential customers of your services to reconsider if you want a good experience.
I have been going to R & J Sales for years. They are always friendly and helpful. Their prices are very reasonable in fact better than many others that I attend. I do endorse R&J!
I saw them embarrass a lady for being in a bathroom by mistake. I was embarrassed for the lady and told them they had no right to speak to her like that. She was looking and the door simple closed They r extremely rude
