A No Buyers Premium
Firearms Auction Service
Letter to Customers:
It
is hard to believe that it has
been 5 years since we
purchased our family business
from our parents who founded
Redding Auction Service, Inc.
in 1974. The transfer
officially took place on
October 1st, 2018,
and it is hard to believe how
fast those 5 years have come
and gone. Over those 5 years,
we have had many highs, and
unfortunately some lows. Those
lows came with the passing of
our mother Clara Redding on
May 1st, 2020, and
most recently the passing of
our father C. David Redding on
December 18th,
2022. We also cannot forget
the unfortunate time that our
country endured through
COVID-19. I have always
believed that with any
negative, there is something
positive to come out of it.
Through COVID-19 we were
forced to make decisions that
I feel ended up making us a
more efficient company
overall. Losing our parents
and founders of the company
created a gap, but we now have
a new generation of family
members stepping in to fill
that gap and carry the family
business on. My daughter
Brianna graduated from
Shippensburg University in
2023 with a degree in business
management and marketing, and
she was the first person in
our family to receive a
college degree. My son Cole
graduated from Gettysburg Area
High School in 2022, has
completed his course for
auctioneering, and is studying
to take the state test which
will make him a fully licensed
auctioneer. We have made many
upgrades to our existing
facility with expansions and
remodels, and even purchased a
second facility located in
Bonneauville, PA. We have more
than doubled our staff since
2018 which has made this
growth possible. We have
worked very hard over the past
5 years to give all of you the
best auction experience both
on the selling and purchasing
side. We do not take anything
for granted and promise to
continue working just as hard
for all our clients in years
to come. Our family and staff
cannot say thank you enough.
To show our appreciation for
your support through all the
high and low eras over the
past 5 years, at the auction
on December 10th we
will be providing all of you
with a free lunch. We will be
serving pit beef sandwiches,
chips, and drinks. We look
forward to seeing all of you
as we start year number 6,
which will be packed full of
more auctions and continued
growth. Thank you again, and
Happy Thanksgiving!
Respectfully Pat Redding
