Dave Johnson Auctions was started, for the most part, due to his long time enjoyment of attending auctions and his appreciation of the value of antique and vintage items. He also has a great admiration for the entire process that involves the auctioneer, consignor and buyer. He believes auctions are both fun and exciting for everyone concerned and provide a great day of satisfaction. Dave graduated with his degree in Auctioneering from Georgian College in Barrie, the only college offering an accredited auctioneering program in Ontario. It was an intensive program that took over 90 hours of both classroom and hands on instruction to complete. He is also an active member of the AAO (Auctioneers Association of Ontario). Dave started out as a sales representative for a respectable insurance company but not being a 9 to 5 and “indoor” type of person he sought a career elsewhere. In addition to being a certificated auctioneer he is also a professional fisherman and a construction service supervisor, all done locally to the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). He now puts his vast and varied business sense to good use in the auction business. Dave feels that the auction format of selling offers the best possible forum for both the seller (consignor) and buyer. There are really good bargains to be found at auctions for buyers and the bidding type of sale also allows for the best possible price to be received for a seller’s goods. Auctions are an immediate way to liquidate merchandise or to just simply dispose of unwanted items, much less work and cost for the seller than running advertisements and having people visit to view the item. Dave's auctioning services are available for any type of merchandise but he specializes on the sale of quality antique and vintage items of all kinds. From beginning to end he works to ensure that everyone gets what they want out of their auction experience. Dave invites you to contact him by email or phone with any questions you may have concerning his business and services, auctions in general or if you have consignment items you would like to auction. While your at it, you can join his mailing list to receive notification of upcoming sales either by mail or email upon your request. Thanks for your interest in Dave Johnson Auctions. |
