“Tom Crawford is by far one of the best auctioneers in the South. He goes above and beyond to ensure he is delivering the best auction experience for your guests. He meets in advance, carefully plans the lineup, is always available for questions, and brings unique suggestions to the table. Tom has helped raise well over a million dollars for my organizations over the past seven years we've worked together. He also knows the Charleston crowd and pre-sells the items before the auction even begins! Simply put, he is the best!”
