Bob’s Market Message

September 23, 2017

Montana Days 2017 is in the books. 2908 offered, 2075 sold—72% sale. I guess you could say that the market in Spokane was pretty good this week. Everything was selling — if you didn’t have success as a seller this past week in Spokane, you were simply off the market — way off the market.

I want to congratulate the DAA Northwest team on yet another excellent auction event. For you, our customer, the amount of work that goes into producing a 3,000 car sale each month is huge. All the planning, the bodies, the logistics mean nothing if there is not hard work, dedication, and perseverance at the core of it all. The DAA team exemplifies these qualities every week. They are second to none, and I am proud to be associated with each one of them.

Thank you to all of you, our customers who support our efforts each week and realize there is a difference. There are lots of auctions, and lots of options on how to buy and sell inventory. To those who say the value of relationship, hard work and commitment to excellence are old adages, I say NO — they are the cornerstone qualities of doing business and always will be.

We appreciate your support of what we do.

– Bob
