What Are People Saying About Us?

Just a note to sincerely thank you for your assistance in our farm equipment auction.

Your advertisement and promotion prior to the sale was responsible for drawing an excellent crowd of interested bidders. The sale was well-organized, and your entire team handled things in a highly professional manner.

I feel certain that all of this contributed to a great degree in the very successful outcome of our sale.

Sincerely,

We made a hard decision to quit farming ground that our family had farmed for three generations. God showed us it was the right thing to do. Then He led us to a great auction company.

Doug and his associates were the nicest, easiest; to work with people you could ever have the privilege of doing business with. They showed us such kindness, compassion and understanding. Business was conducted in a very professional manner. The meticulous preparation before the auction really paid off. The way they advertised, marketed, and promoted our sale was outstanding.

The sale itself was a great experience and was beyond our wildest dreams. It was all in God’s hands and He provided greatly.

Thanks,

The decision to retire after 41 years of farming was a very tough one to make. Having an auctioneer with the reputation and experience of Doug Stovesand made my equipment sale a tremendous success.

Everything about the process and what I should expect from the sale was made clear to me. The brochures were a fantastic way to advertise, as I had calls all the way from Oregon prior to the sale.

I would like to extend my gratitude to Doug Stovesand and his staff at Stovesand Auction Company for conducting such an impeccable equipment sale. Doug Stovesand is a true professional. My family and I want to thank you again for making my retirement a little bit easier.

Thanks, again,
Steve Lovett and Family

We wanted to thank you and your staff for all the help and great manner in which you took care of everything for the estate sale for the Lucas family. You and your staff were very heart felt and very in touch with the family and friends as you handled this sale.

We would like to let you know how much we appreciated you and your staff in handling all the details in the sell of this estate. The Lucas family would want everyone to know how well you did and how much appreciated they are for your help during this time.

We would highly recommend you and your staff to anyone in need of your services. Again, thank you for all your concern and help during this time.

After 60 some odd years of farming, I finally made the decision to retire and Doug Stovesand was the auctioneer I contacted. He was very helpful and professional. He appraised everything and told me what to expect to get for my equipment. He was so close it was scarey.

Doug was trustworthy and did everything he had stated that he would. I was very pleased and highly recommend Doug Stovesand Action Company.

Farming may start out to be a business venture, but, as time goes by it unknowingly becomes a way of life.

You get to farm every year, but you only get to sell out once. This becomes an emotional time for the whole family. We really appreciate the way our sale was handled.

Thanks again,

This is a testimony centered around GOD and the way HE used the Stovesand Auction team to conduct our sale.

I have to start with Psalm 1:1 Blessed is the man who seeks Godly counsel.

There is not enough praise and thanks for the Stovesand Team. It takes a team effort to accomplish anything in life. This was a big decision to sell our farm equipment, part of our life left with this sale and this is why I sought Godly counsel. I had heard a lot about Doug Stovesand and his team, and had previous experience buying items at other sales conducted by Stovesand Auctions. They are honest and work hard for the best sale you could have. Doug’s counsel was everything we expected. The sale itself was more than we ever dreamed it would be, but I wouldn’t expect anything less from my God. When you listen to Godly counsel from Godly men it tends to work in your favor and God found favor on us. Everybody that attended that day had nothing but praises for Doug and his crew that day.

Psalm 105:1 Give thanks and make known among nations (people) what He has done.

This is what it is about, making known how well Doug’s team handled the sale, and what they can do for you!

We were very pleased with our equipment sale.

The time you spent with us, the trustworthy advice, and your professional attention to every detail made it a pleasant experience.

Thanks to you and your crew for all you did.

Doug Stovesand and his crew conducted my sale in the spring of 2006.

He is a professional in every way. His advertisement of the sale was great. People came from at least 10 states.

Doug did everything that he said he would do for me. He got me the most money for my equipment. The people turned out to make it a very successful sale. If you are planning a sale, I recommend Doug and his professional crew because I think he can do you a good job. At the end of the day, you will be happy and the bidders will be satisfied.

Stovesand Auction Company was our first choice when my grandson, Justin made the difficult decision to sell his equipment after farming a few years.

We could not have chosen a better auction company!

I will always be grateful to Doug for taking the time on a busy morning before the start of the sale to sit down and visit with Justin to reassure him of his decision.

Thanks again, and I highly recommend Doug to anyone considering a sale.

After making the decision to retire from farming, I knew that I wanted Stovesand Auction Company to handle my machinery sale. I n my opinion, Doug has the best reputation in the auction business. He made me feel relaxed and confident during the whole process from my initial call to him all the way through the auction day while handling everything in a very professional manner. Doug’s professionalism and reputation bring in many buyers who know what they can expect when they come to a Stovesand Auction.

Even with what could be considered a late sale date, Doug assured me that the buyers would come, and I was extremely pleased with the results of my sale.

The color brochure looked great, and I had calls before the sale from several states about my equipment, and many of these callers showed up on sale day and took home machinery.

You can put your complete trust in Doug to make the right decisions concerning your sale date and all the details concerning your sale, while letting you know what to expect along the way.

Doug, I want to thank you and all your workers for a very successful sale.

Thanks,
Mrs. Howard Bottoms

Last year I bought Mr. Sam Eifling’s 2wd 7130. I am a small sugarcane farmer from southwest Louisiana. It’s not often I make a major purchase like a tractor. I was very much satisfied with Mr. Sam’s tractor and have put more that 500 hours on it with only one transmission sensor going out. Last year I traveled to four states and several auctions and yours was the best.

Thanks a lot,

Bill and I want to thank you again for your fine job on our farm sale. We had callers from several states because of your Internet advertising, and many of them recommended you highly. We do, too. You are a true professional. You made our retirement sale a success. We appreciate you. Keep up the good work.

Thank you,

One of the hardest decisions a person must make in their life is the decision to change or stop doing what they have done their whole life. As you know that was the decision that we made last year at this time when we decided to retire from farming. You and your company helped to make it an easier job for a number of reasons.

First of all, you came with a good reputation from everyone we talked to. You called a number of times to check on our decision, but you didn’t come on so strong or make us feel pressured to let you have the job. Next, after deciding that you were the one for the job, the brochures you made were extremely nice. The advertisements in the various papers were great. Your personnel did an excellent job getting everything ready for the sale. They were so friendly and real helpful the entire time. The sale was carried on very professionally. It was the kind of sale you could take your family to. We were so pleased with the way it turned out and you got us such a good price on things. A year later we have no regrets.

Thanks again for everything you and your staff did to make your retirement sale the way it should have been.

Sincerely,
Jerry and Judy Milam

Thank you and your staff for the professional manner in which my sale was conducted. Calls came in from California, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Mississippi, and all over Arkansas.
