Auction action hits Moville
10.03.11
AUCTIONEER Leo McCauley
and staff are busy putting the final touches to
their big auction taking place this Saturday, March
12, in Moville. There will be lots of lots and great
items going under the hammer including an antique
footstool, silver tea sets, a Hunter stove, a
jacuzzi AquaSteam cabinet, art, fireplaces,
ornaments, ceramics, a quad bike and go kart.
"We have done auctions over the years, mostly house
clearances, but it is many years since there was a
'catch all' type of auction so we are encouraged by
the response. We’ve already got many items ranging
from small ornaments to large pieces of furniture,
electrical and household goods, a quad and a Go
Kart," said Leo. |
Leo is a third
generation auctioneer and estate agent and has
extensive knowledge of buying and selling. His late
father, James, and grandfather, Denis, ran auctions
in the town periodically down through the years.
For many years the auction bell would ring out to
herald the start of proceedings. Listen out...that
sound may be ringing round Moville about 11.30am on
Saturday.
"We want to give people the chance to once again
experience the old-world charm and atmosphere of a
traditional auction. Buyers can go along and enjoy
the thrill of picking up a bargain. |

"Auctions were a way of
life for generations gone by and whether you're a
seller or a buyer, it should be a great day out for
everyone," added Leo.
Anyone wishing to buy or sell an item or items
should check out the lots at

kicks off at 12 noon at Moville Business Park,
Glencrow, and everyone is welcome. |
