July 2 2008,
A quick email to thankyou for
your fantastic work as auctioneer with the Live Auction at
the Teresa House Charity Ball on Saturday night. It was
perfect: you kept it quick, very funny and entertaining and
you managed to draw out the generosity of the crowd which
resulted in some incredibly generous bidding - always a good
outcome for a charity fund raiser! We were very pleased all
round and I know many people kept raving to me for the rest
of the night about how good you were. Thanks again - it
was such a key contributor to the nights success.
Regards,
David

I Just wanted
to briefly mention to you how impressed I was yet again with
our Auctioneer on Saturday at the above property. Simon was
a large part of the reason I was able to successfully
negotiate a sale at the property on the day!
Simon arrived early, spent some time with myself & my vendor
assessing the situation & the mood in the room & was great
at imparting his thoughts as to where to vendor bid the
property if needed etc. Also during the course of bidding
Simon was very calm & dignified. Rather than making a quick
exit Simon stuck around for a few minutes & explained to my
Vendor what would likely transpire over the next few
minutes, Which impressed my vendor greatly & freed me up to
continue intense negotiations with the remaining buyers &
ultimately execute an exchange of contracts.
Please pass on mine & my vendors Thanks !
Regards
George Faris, McGrath Agents |
