Some estate sale companies put really high prices on things while others are more reasonably priced. I've had good luck at many in my area but north of me 40 miles the prices are outlandish. So, you really have to go to enough to find the dealers that are fair. My DH thinks that the dealers that have high prices are just trying to keep the good stuff for themselves or their own shops. I don't know if that's true but what do they do with the stuff that doesn't sell? I'd like to know.
