Specializing In:
We have helped many people with their auction needs.
Here are a few that had something to say about us.
To Whom It May Concern:
On June 6, 2009 I employed Prime Time Auctions to liquidate my deceased husband's property. He had 60 plus years of accumulation from being a building contractor as well as a farmer.
I want to thank the people who served me in this endeavor. While at times it was emotional to see everything being sold, I appreciated the great people at Prime Time who showed concern, compassion, caring, and especially professionalism. I enjoyed getting to know the various people from the company, especially (Name Removed) and (Name Removed), who spent many hours at the house organizing the auction. I now count them as friends.
Thanks again for all that you did to help carry the burdensome task.
THANK YOU!

Dear Prime Time,
I just wanted to thank you for standing by your "Green Light" guarantee agreement. I have enjoyed going to Prime Time's auctions and have been doing so for 10 years. I recently bought a SUV with a Green Light sticker. There were some unknown and unforeseen engine problems within a couple of hours. From the time I contacted you and the time the problem got fixed only took a couple of days. I appreciate your time and honesty in dealing with the damaged part.
Thank you for standing by your guarantee. I will continue to support Prime Time Auctions and refer others.

Dear Prime Time Auctions,
I thought you would like to know my viewpoints, as I was quite happy with the sale. I thought everything went along like clock work. I know this is not much to say that I am happy, but I do want to thank everybody that took part in the sale.
The hard work putting the sale together. A lot of people take everything for granted, the Ad's, pictures and everything you did! Nothing was missed.
So I will say it again THANK YOU!!!

Dear Prime Time,
We recently had occasion to use "Prime Time Auction(s)" to auction off our fathers' estate. We can't thank them enough for all they did for us. Our mother and father's estate was a 24 acre ranch that had been in the family for about 100 years. There was the house, a barn, an old log cabin, a shop, and two granaries full of things collected for all those years. Prime Time came in a few days before the actual sale and spent those days sorting and organizing everything. They were thoughtful and courteous to us at all times. We can't thank them enough for their part in making it much easier for us to dispose of a lifetime of paraphernalia and memories. Thanks to them they made the task so much easier and took a lot of stress off of us in doing so.

I cannot help but be amazed at how smoothly everything went. Your preparation was outstanding and all events were met on schedule. Thanks to your efforts, everything was sold and that spared us a lot of expense and aggravation in not having to get rid of any equipment by alternate means.
You are entirely welcome to share this testimonial with others and, should anyone ever ask for a recommendation, please send him to us.

Dear (Name Removed),
I understand you may be considering using the services of Prime Time Auctions to liquidate an estate you are responsible for. Prime Time asked that I drop you a short note regarding my experience with auctions of both real and personal property.
I am pleased to do so. I am a Bankruptcy Trustee and I have used Prime Time to market both real and personal property numerous times over the last six years. Prime Time is professional, ethical, and honest and I recommend their services without reservation. They have sold over $2 million worth of property for me.
I have become a true believer in the auction process. We consistently liquidate property expeditiously and receive market prices using Prime Time’s services. We have sold a variety of items from airplanes and artwork to vehicles and even a seed warehouse.
In addition, we have marketed several parcels of real property and were very pleased with the results. We received market value and completed the entire transaction in 30 days. Many times these properties had been listed with conventional realtors for a year or more with no results.
If you need to market property quickly and with confidence that you will receive a fair price, I highly recommend the auction process. Prime Time is a dependable company that has earned my trust.

Dear (Name Removed):
It is my pleasure to write this letter to recommend Prime Time Auctions.
May I say that Prime Time Auctions has been handling sales of real property for me in both Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 13 [bankruptcy] cases. They have been the Auction Company of choice in this area for years. They are a professional, organized, and well equipped company. Recently I had them auction a piece of real property that I owned personally. My experience with Prime Time has always been good. I think we each have an idea of what property is worth. They always seem to come close to or exceed my expectations. This of course, is a most gratifying result. I was at one time very skeptical of auctioning real property for fear of the results. I can tell you the advertising is well planned, thought out, and contained within the agreed budget. Realtors are involved, including their own. They maintain an extensive mailing list as well as the complete use of the internet. The years have proven to me if you want to liquidate property in a reasonable amount of time with a satisfactory result, this is the way to go. In the past two or three months, I have sold at auction three rental properties that brought more than the debtor valued them at. I have also sold through a realtor another rental property that brought considerably less than the value. There are plenty of investors out there that are willing to set up and pay. They come from all over. As you know, Pocatello is now considered as one of the places to purchase real estate and people sure seem to be doing just that.
(Name Removed), if your clients want a quick closure at a fair and reasonable cost, I urge you to visit with Prime Time and get the full story. Both you and your clients will be glad you did. Thanks for taking the time to consider my recommendation.

To Whom It May Concern:
Our first experience with Prime Time Auctions was after my brother's death in December of 2004. We contacted Prime Time Auctions to help with liquidating his estate.
Prime Time Auctions' services allowed us to sell the household items, a car, a camp trailer, and the house, all in one day. It was extremely reassuring to know that we had final approval on whether to accept or reject the bid for the house. We were pleasantly surprised by the number of bidders and the final amount we accepted for my brother's house. We felt the cost for their services were fair and reasonable, especially for the amount of work they provide to make the auction profitable and successful.
Our second experience with the auction process was with the estate's commercial property. We had listed the commercial property with a local real estate company which produced little, if any, attention. Since our first experience with Prime Time Auctions had proven to be successful, we contacted them to help us sell this property. Their advertising and promotion techniques were very impressive and effective. Again we were pleasantly surprised by the number of bidders and we were able to get an amount that we deemed acceptable.
Because of their honest and ethical practices, I strongly recommend the services of Prime Time Auctions. I would be happy to answer any questions people may have concerning these experiences with Prime Time Auctions. Feel free to call me at (number removed).

I am looking forward to planning our next sale with you. Thanks Again to all of you!!!!!

To Whom It May Concern:
This letter is to share with others, the Bank of Idaho's recommendation of Prime Time Auctions of Pocatello. It has been our privilege as a Bank to have been associated with Prime Time Auctions for many years, both as customers of the Bank and as a resource to assist in liquidation of Bank assets.
Prime Time Auctions has handled sales for the Bank of Idaho for at least 5 years [as of 2003.] They have been conservative and honest in their estimates and have usually been very close to their appraisal. Presentation at the sales has been excellent due to thorough cleanup and preparation of sale items. Through the resources and contacts they have, they have been very effective in promotion and advertising, resulting in good crowds at the sales.
Tanner Hernandez has been our primary contact and has been excellent to work with. Prime Time Auctions has done a good job for us. If you would like, feel free to contact me at (number removed).

To Whom It May Concern:
We recently had Prime Time Auctions conduct the sale of our business. I chose Prime Time Auctions because I had the opportunity to observe your professionalism at other auctions.
I had mixed emotions and had made a decision not to attend the sale. Tanner mentioned that some business owners choose not to attend, but suggested that if I wanted to attend, he was sure I would have a good time. At the last minute, I changed my mind and it was no doubt one of the best days I have had in years. The advice and guidance that Prime Time gave us was invaluable and helped maximize returns on our assets.
Again, thank you for helping us liquidate our business assets. The experience was very rewarding, and allowed us to begin a new path in our lives. Dianne and I wanted to thank you and your staff for a job well done.

Owner of Discovery Foods, Inc.
To Whom It May Concern:
I am Trustee for the United States Bankruptcy Court for Southeastern Idaho. This letter is to provide a recommendation regarding the auction company, Prime Time Auctions. As Trustee for the past thirty years (30), I have sold thousands of items of property from Bankruptcy estates. In the past, I had employed several companies to conduct auction sales. For the last five (5) years, I have exclusively used the services of Prime Time Auctions. Prime Time has conducted numerous auctions for me. Prime Time has the ability to sell all types of property including business, personal, and real estate property.
Prime Time will provide you with the best advertising for the dollar spent. They will use a well thought out advertising campaign that creates the best market for the merchandise to be sold. The sale merchandise will be displayed in a professional manner to ensure the best possible price. If repairs are needed, they have the personnel to get the merchandise ready and operational at a very reasonable price. This is a progressive company that fully utilizes the Internet for advertising and accepting bids on the sale merchandise. They are always ready to answer questions and to assist the seller and buyer. The years of experience has provided them with a mailing list of buyers for all types of merchandise and property.
I recommend this company to anyone who is interested in having merchandise sold in an honest and professional way at the least cost with the best possible results.

Dear (Name Removed):
Linda and I would like to commend you and your staff on the excellent job you did on our recent auction. We were impressed with all the preparation you did, as well as the cleanup after.
One of the things a person who decides to go with an auction usually questions is whether or not the people conducting the auction will get top prices, and if they are honest. We would like you, as well as others; to know that we felt you were able to get the best possible price on most of the items. We also found you to be unquestionably honest in our business dealings.
Again, our thanks for a job well done!

I have worked with Prime Time Auctions Inc. a number of years and in conjunction with a number of auctions. In particular I have worked with Juan Hernandez of Prime Time Auctions Inc. I have represented the Trustee and have worked with Prime Time Auctions on a number of Bankruptcy auctions on both personal property and real property.
I have found Prime Time Auctions Inc. to do a professional and competent job and they have maximized the money for creditors on the bankruptcy estate auctions.
