"TESTIMONIALS" |
August 2010 Our Auction Sale was a tremendous success! Thanks to the knowledge, professional, helpful, courteous and efficient Auctioneers, Staff & Workers. The advertising (catalogues, posters, Internet and newspapers) was colorful, appealing, well displayed and far reaching, as people attended from B.C., AB, SK, & MB. At one point telephone bidding was employed. Advice, organization and positioning of machinery, tools & miscellaneous was helpful, unique & strategic to the volume of items that were sold quickly, orderly and in a professional manner. Extras (but neccessities) like trailers, transportation, toilets, computer tabulations, as well as a red and white dress code of the Balicki staff contributed to the excellent manner in how the Auction was conducted. Sincere thanks and appreciation to the Harvey & Maxine Auction Team for a job well done. It was a caring and sharing effort with a huge scope of awareness for everyone involved.

June 2010 Harvey and Staff -- Balicki Auctions and Appraisal: First and foremost thank you, Harvey, for agreeing and accepting to do our farm dispersal auction. We must say that once again you and your staff have proven to be a very capable team to do the job. We have attended many of your auctions and you have solidly confirmed that you and your staff are professionals, are very knowledgable and have great organizational skills to conduct sales large or small. Your helpful suggestions as to the grouping and arranging items in preparation for the sale were much appreciated. Your experience and that of your staff is very apparent in your patience and rapport with the auction audience. Because of your approachability and your psychological understanding of human behaviour you very aptly accommodated the requests of individuals seeking information or wishing to have an item put on the auction block sooner for one reason or another. Because of your dependability and trustworthiness we felt very confident that you were able to take control and to conduct an excellent sale which you did. You and your staff must be commended for your physical appearance. Many a time we've heard "How do they keep those white shirts so clean -- working in the dust, rust, oil, grease, and grime?" Efficiency is evident. You are able to move right along without any hitches in the time that you have alloted for yourself. Your clerking staff, too, must be commended for their recording and efficient manner in dealing with the billing of numerous customers. Once again thank you Harvey and staff for conducting an excellent sale. We hope that you and your staff are healthy and able to conduct many more satisfactory sales. Sincerely, ******************************************************************************** |

April 2010 We would like to say a big Thank You to Harvey Balicki and the Balicki Auction crew for a very successful sale we had on April 28, 2010. It was a farm auction plus one quarter of land was sold. We chose Balicki Auctions as he did some previous auctions for our family and one for us on our mechanical & welding shop. We found he got good prices for our merchandise. They are very honest, hard working and did bring us satisfactory results. They are very professional, pleasant and prompt in all aspects of the sale and on sale day. They're advertising program is excellent. We would recommend Balicki Auctions to anyone having an auction sale. They are not only auctioneers but they become friends as well. Thank you, thank you, for a very successful sale. Vern

September 2009 Balicki Auctions Thank you very much for the wonderful experience your company gave us on August 20/09. The success of our Auction Sale made the move from Snow Castle Lodge to private life a very easy and enjoyable one. When and if we move from Candle Lake; giving up the tow trucks to be closer to doctor care, your firm, Balicki Auctions, shall be in charge. Your staff were so professional and friendly --- they kept the day running very smoothly. What a wonderful job, well done! Thanks again Harvey Balicki. Balicki Auctions shall definitely get our recommendation. Walter

September 2009 Harvey Balicki, We would like to thank you for all your help and support on our recent auction that you conducted. You advised and guided us through to a successful outcome. When asked if we would recommend your services we give a resounding yes! On our recent trip back to Canora, many of the townspeople commented on the excellent way this auction was presented and if the need arose they said they would give you a chance to help them in the same way. Our best wishes for your continuing business. Sincerely, Pete & Irma Thibodeau ******************************************************************************** |

2008 On behalf of my brother Dennis, myself, and our wives Diana and Ruth, I want to express our appreciation for the auction you conducted for us on June 18, 2008. The fact that this was a very successful auction can be attributed in large measure to your personal efforts in guiding us throughout the weeks leading up to "the big day"! We would also ask that you pass on our appreciation to all your staff that assisted with the sale. We were most impressed with the professionalism displayed by all members of your team. The day ran like clockwork due to their competent and efficient efforts. I guess the only aspect we can't give you credit for is the fact that the weather was ideal for the whole day! We would certainly be pleased to give your auction service a strong, positive endorsement should we be asked by someone contemplating a farm auction. Thanks again, Don Scott ****************************************************************************** |

2005 To Balicki Auctions, I can heartily recommend Balicki Auction services to anyone in the Prince Albert area. Harvey and his staff treated my fathers possessions with the utmost care and attention. I never felt like it was junk to them. They were thorough and professional in every manner. They took time to catalogue the machinery in my Dads garage and posted pictures on the internet. They also put advertising up and advised me on what was happening every step of the way. I didnt believe Harvey at first when he said dont worry, its all gonna go. But he was right. It all got sold and at prices I was very happy with. The people at the auction all seemed to enjoy themselves too. I received lots of feedback about the sale and compliments as well. It was an event I initially feared but now look back on with satisfaction. When asked for advice by others on having an auction, I will send them to Harvey with full confidence. Thanks again.
