Tom Petty 3-day Malibu estate sale offers furniture, art, a book collection and more
The company organizing this weekend's estate sale at the Malibu home of the late Tom Petty and his wife Dana sent out a warning, "We expect a line to enter." On Friday morning, people queued outside the home on Pacific Coast Highway, hidden by a wall of trees, waiting for their opportunity to stroll, shop, and get a glimpse of the Petty pad.
While rock n' roll memorabilia won't be for sale, there are plenty of household treasures available from rugs and lamps to glassware and curated décor – and it's a chance to see where the rock legend lived.

Snooping is allowed, but for serious buyers who wanted to be the first inside Friday morning, tickets were available for purchase. Handled., the company organizing the estate sale, said the public can come anytime and get in line after the early bird ticket holders.
"If you don't care about being among the first inside, come anytime between 10 a.m. and 3:30 pm. If there is still a line when you arrive, just get in the line," the company wrote.
There will be 25 shoppers allowed at a time, and no purses, bags, boxes, strollers, pet or baby carriers are allowed inside, the company said. All sales are final and there are no refunds or exchanges.
