The Prive Group has worked with Bang the Gavel on numerous charity events at the Playboy Mansion. Their auction services have always provided added value to our events as well as help raise money for the charities we contribute to. The staff at BTG is always professional and a pleasure to work with. Their company is well organized and they clearly know how to help maximize fundraising efforts for any event company. We recommend them highly as the premier auction services company in Southern California.

It is my pleasure to recommend “Bang the Gavel” to all event planners, charities and organizations.
I have had “Bang the Gavel” at several of my charity luncheons with excellent results. From beginning to end, they manage and organize every detail, from set up to cashiering and delivery of items, with flawless professionalism. Our organization has improved its bottom line by many, many thousands of dollars because of their work. With Bang the Gavel managing our silent auction and Live auction, it is one less thing to worry about.
I look forward to working with them in the future!

We have used Bang the Gavel for our big 2007 and 2008 summer fundraisers and we could not be happier with them. They are extremely professional and helpful in every way. Auctions are a lot of work and Bang the Gavel makes them a breeze! They will take over every facet of the auction process if needed and allow you more time to plan your event. More importantly, our auction sales have increased over 50% from our past auctions because of their expertise and having Drew as our live auctioneer. He can get the crowd going and easily double or triple what a normal host would get. Also, they bring along amazing items that really please the crowd. Everyone at Much Love Animal Rescue appreciates all they do for our events and as long as we have big fundraisers, Bang the Gavel will be a part of them!

Bang the Gavel provides an invaluable service to anyone who is having a fundraiser that includes an auction. The hours that they put in setting up the items, yours as well as theirs, are countless. The have a huge staff for the often chaotic check-out part of the auction that makes it run smoothly. And the best part is, you have to do nothing! They collect the bid sheets and money, and in our case, had a complete spreadsheet of items sold, amount and to whom available to us the very next day – and it was a Sunday! They are courteous and professional at the event (even when sometimes the guests aren´t!) and extremely easy to work with. They are readily available by both phone and email with questions that come up both before and after the auction. Then they help you collect on those items that were bid on but not paid for. The amount of hours that we saved not having to do all of this hard work allowed us focus on other areas of our event. And what´s so hard to believe is that all of this didn´t cost us a dime. In fact, we made money off of Bang the Gavel. We plan to use their incredible service at every auction that we hold. Thank you Bang the Gavel!!!

The Professional Baseball Scouts Foundation has worked with Bang the Gavel since the start of our Annual Event. We are coming up on our 7th and every year BTG out does itself, if you can even imagine that. They have provided for our Event what is now called the “World’s Largest Sports Memorabilia Auction”; it truly is something to see! The staff is first class all the way. They not only provide great service, but they are approachable the entire evening for my staff, my guests and also me. They do all of the work not just for the silent auction but Drew and Seth also provide their personal service for our live auction. On behalf of the Professional Baseball Scouts Foundation Board of Directors I would like to thank BTG for their contribution to the continued success of the Annual In the Spirit of the Game Dinner/Auction Event. They are the best!
