Good Morning Giles I would like to thank you very , very much for your auction “the Alan Harbottle Collection”. I watched it last evening by video link from Australia. It is the first time I have ever watched something like this and of course I had a vested interest on Alan’s behalf. It may a normal days work to you but I thought you did a wonderful job on behalf of Alan and had his wishes and I can only thank you once again. Warmest regards
Bill King

Pat and David HootonCustomer
The Flugelhorn arrived today. I'm delighted with it and can say so far this is the best packaging of an Instrument I've received over the last 5 years I have been doing this. It plays really well and is exactly what I hoped it would be. Thank you so much.
Mark JordanCustomer
I’m so glad that we decided to use Boldon auction gallery to auction my dad’s collection. They were excellent from start to finish, Giles even traveled down to Melton Mowbray to look at the collection. They got over 1000 items sorted and ready for auction very quickly and being able watch the auction online was excellent too. I can’t recommend them highly enough. Thanks for everything, Alan
Alan RodenbyCustomer
"I have recently used Boldon Auction Galleries for the clearance of a small flat and the auction of its contents, and I cannot speak highly enough of the services that they offer. The clearance was done in a very professional manner and the cataloguing of the contents was done in a manner that maximised the saleability of a very mixed collection of items in a very cost effective manner. Giles Hodges is a master of his art!"
Tim Hayes
Many thanks for your efficient and professional service.

Many thanks for selling my lots, for prompt payments and for helping me get the items to you in the first place. The whole process went smoothly. If you fancy branching out into Scotland, we could do with a decent auction house here and Kirkcudbright is a lovely place to live. With best wishes for your continued success.
SL
We would like to convey our sincere thanks to Giles and Harry for their kindness extended to us at the 30th March event. It meant a great deal to us, and was very much appreciated.
Maureen ConnellFundraising Co-ordinator
Clearing my mum's house was always going to be a difficult day but the removal team were absolute superstars. They were a lovely group of guys who handled all of the lifting and dust on a hot sweaty day with a smile on their face - and it took them less than two hours to clear the whole house. A fantastic job. Thank you Boldon Auctions.
E M H
My recent dealings with Boldon Auctions was uplifted by Harry. What a lovely lad. Very welcoming and pleasant. A credit to the House!
C. S.
Many thanks for your great auctions we will be glad to hear from you and will be using your service again.

I would just like to say how lovely it is coming to your auction rooms. The staff are always so pleasant and obliging, I am particularly impressed with Harry who never grumbles at the weight of things he has to carry to the car for me, he’s a real find. Also I’d like to mention the girl in the office unfortunately I don’t know her name who bid on my behalf about a month ago as I wouldn’t get to the auction in time, wonderful staff, treasure them.
Norma Metcalf
Hello there Just like to say how much I enjoyed viewing the auction yesterday morning. Wow you worked so hard auctioning all those lots and managing online as well as in the room bids as well as cleverly encouraging the bidding upwards. I was pleased to see you had a cuppas to keep you going all that time! Thank you I felt we did really well all told and I was surprised by the bids on some things like the uniforms of my uncle and grandad, I cried in relief when I knew someone had bought them. Also, the paperweights which my mam spent years collecting - aww, happy days. Thanks once again Angela 😊
AngelaSeller
Wow. That's amazing. Thank you so much. Great job. I found your advice very helpful and the people really friendly. Thanks again.
Annie AylingCustomer
Once again, thank you so much for your handling of this process. You and your staff have been super efficient and friendly. Your guidance on the evaluations and advice on what was not viable was very welcome.
A Bainbridge AylingCustomer
Thank you for your advice and professional approach from the house clearance stage to the final auction. The service you have provided has been first class with excellent communication at all times. I would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone who is looking for a similar service.
G. F.
You answered all my questions, suppied additional photos and information, informed me about the packing process and provided a very quick transaction and collection service. I really appreciate all the help since it was an expensive item and the courier service is not something I had experienced before. So thanks to all the team for making it happen. I am one lucky lady for getting a chance to own this lovely item.

Thanks for the help from Giles and the great guys who worked so hard picking up the furniture - they made it look easy, but I know it wasn't!

Hi Giles, I appreciate all your help with everything. Myself and my sister watched the auction and were very pleased that most of my Nan's possessions have found themselves a new home.
A. M.
Much appreciate the work you have done to sell what was our teapot collection, they sold far better than we anticipated
