David, I was absolutely delighted with SCP's marketing efforts for my game used baseball bats. Your hard work certainly paid off with the prices realized for my 1921-31 Babe Ruth gamer which brought $162,000 and my 1955 Ted Williams All-Star bat which brought $72,000. You exceeded my expectations and for that I am very thankful. I look forward to working with you in the future on more of my quality sports items and antiques.
Kevin C., Florida
I would at this time like to thank you for the professional approach taken by you and your staff in the auctioning of my uncle Ernie Lombardi’s personal baseball memorabilia.

From our very first meeting and including our many telephone conversations you and your staff have made me feel as if my uncle’s auction items were of significant importance and not just “another old time baseball player” and for that I thank you. You both also understood the emotional value these items had for me, as they reminded me of the great life I had with my uncle Ernie as a young boy. Your catalog presentation and biography were far above my expectations.

Again, thank you for giving me the venue to hopefully ensure that uncle Ernie’s baseball memorabilia was passed on to true fans of the game!
Don V. Monzo regarding the sale of his Uncle, Ernie Lombardi's collection
Making the decision to sell my personal memorabilia collection was a difficult one. Entrusting an auction firm with a lifetime’s worth of memories requires careful consideration. After meeting David Kohler and Dan Imler of SCP Auctions, much of my initial apprehension was instantly alleviated. From the moment they arrived at my house, I felt comfortable with them both as people and professionals. From the packing and removal of my collection, to the cataloguing, marketing and execution of the sale, I couldn’t be more pleased with the way things were handled. The results of the auction were impressive and flattering. From my personal experience I can wholeheartedly recommend SCP Auctions as the company to turn to when the time comes to part with your collection. Thank you David, thank you Dan and thanks to the rest of your terrific staff at SCP Auctions.

“I wanted to write to you to tell you how pleased I am with the results of the recent auction you had with memorabilia of my grandfather, Honus Wagner. I have to admit, I had reservations about parting with my family’s prized possessions. You eased my concerns with your personal manner, coupled with your wonderful personality and caring ways. You understood my emotional concerns. I appreciate the time you took with me. You and each of the associates I spoke with was very knowledgeable of the items, detail oriented and you thoroughly researched each piece. I certainly can see why you are such a success in what you do. I will recommend you to anyone interested in selling or buying sports memorabilia. I wish you continued success. Thanks again for everything! I look forward to working with you again.”

“SCP Auctions has acquired many high grade and rare sports cards over the years. I have always found David Kohler and his staff at SCP Auctions to be extremely professional and reputable. Rare qualities indeed, both in the memorabilia hobby and business in general. A first class operation!”

“From the time we met for breakfast at 8:30 until I dropped Dan off at the airport at 2:30 my confidence in Dan and SCP Auctions continued to grow...Dan responded intelligently to all of my questions and did not tell me what I wanted to hear but with his honest opinion as to what I can anticipate. Again, Dan did a bang-up job. I am looking forward to establishing and building a successful relationship with SCP for many years to come.”
Ralph P., North Carolina
“Please pass this on to your management. Each person I spoke to was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Lots were pulled, described in detail and all questions regarding the item were answered to my satisfaction. It was a pleasure dealing with your company. I look forward to bidding again in future auctions.”
Ray Gibault, Connecticut
“I want to thank your organization, Clay in particular, for the outstanding customer service with regard to the two Chamberlain wirephotos I won in auction recently. A very strange situation occured with the listings, and Clay took care of the mix-up and made sure I received the right photos. The service was prompt and accurate. These photos were very imprtant to me and I cannot thank him enough for fixing a vexing and potentially volitile problem. It is very rare in the Sports Collectible industry that a business is run like any other well-run, professional business, with the customer’s best interest as a top priority. You should be very proud of Clay as well as your policies in handling cutomer concerns. I will certainly recommend you to others.”
Russ Mosier, California
“Completing a 1933 Goudey collection in high-grade has been my dream for many years. I was very lucky to have discovered SCP Auctions several years ago. They are quite knowledgeable, love their work and their prices are among the most reasonable I have found in the industry. Clay Hill and the gang have taken the time to get to know my needs. They have been more concerned with my satisfaction than just making the sale. I trust them, enjoy working with them and give them my strongest recommendation.”
David Schimel M.D., Illinois
“I have been collecting baseball cards my whole life. After meeting the staff at SCP Auctions, I was able to acquire some of the rarest and most valuable baseball cards in existence. They are very professional and reliable. Thank you SCP Auctions.”
Tom Candiotti, former major league pitcher, Arizona
“The staff at SCP Auctions is always courteous and professional. As a set collector, I am constantly seeking specific cards to complete a certain issue. I know I can count on them to deliver in the clutch.”
Marshall Fogel, Colorado
“I started collecting in 1989 and bought my first card from David Kohler and SCP Auctions. David and his staff have helped me build my collection to include many items I thought I would never own. I visit David and his staff regularly and look forward to each visit knowing I’m going to see something new and special every time. I have bought sets, commons, PSA cards, ungraded cards, autographs, and more from SCP Auctions over the years. I would highly recommend to anyone in the hobby that they contact SCP Auctions to help them build their collection.”
Greg Rice, California
“SCP has always been able to get me high prices when I’ve sold various pieces from my collection. At other times, when I have wanted to add a specific item to my collection, David and his staff have always worked hard to locate the desired piece. Their service is excellent and with their retail store, website, and auction capability, they cover all the bases whether you are selling or acquiring.”
Joseph Verno, Colorado
