About the Author

Mim Nagy was born in Lorain, Ohio in 1934. She moved to New York with her husband and child in 1957. While her husband, Robert pursued a career as a tenor soloist with the Metropolitan Opera Association, she raised three children, taught art in the parochial schools, managed an art gallery and initiated three successful businesses. Nagy's passion for antiques and collectibles inspired her to become a licensed appraiser. Conducting estate sales soon followed. After 31 years in New York she returned to Ohio where she decided to write about the business of tag sales. Six years of writing produced a step by step guideline about How to initiate a Tag Sale business with an option of conducting ones own personal Tag Sale. This information is the first of its kind ever written. "Everyone who came from a home will eventually be directly of indirectly involved in selling the contents of that home."

This book doesn't give any information that is of any value to someone serious about starting an estate sale business. The writer wrote this book as if they were talking to a 10 year old. Over priced, poorly produced, and needed lots of editing.

The content of the book is excellent! I am finding it very useful.

My only suggestion would be to improve the binding method. When I received the book, a couple of pages had come out of the GBC binding and were bent. Once I mistakenly folded the book back to far and the entire book came out of the spiral binding. It was very difficult to put it back.
