Our Clients

What Our Clients Say

I must highly recommend Cahi Auctioneers. They came to collect my office furniture from a rather difficult to access premises. No problem for this highly professional team! Courteous and friendly, it was a joy to witness their work, taking great care with every item - thank you so much!

Hedy Kohl

Seller

The owner is a very good auctioneer and very friendly when you are there for an auction it's not just an auction its very enjoyable and the auction includes the crowd. They have a large variety of goods on auction. Their staff is very helpful and friendly. Next time you want to go to an auction highly recommend going there.

Mika Binsbergen

Auction Visitor

Probably one of the best and most honest auction houses around. Jade and the team at Cahi always strive to give the best service and great auctions. Last weeks police auction was something to see, Jade and the crew handle 250+ hungry bidders with ease and ensured every bidder got his or her bargain. If the police could handle crime the way Jade handled the crowd, South Africa would be a safer place.
Well done guys look forward to many more years of auctions with the Cahi team.
