Buyer beware.  I purchased a 6 day trip for me and my wife to Ireland at a Rotary fund raising event back in February 2020.  I paid just over $5,500 for the trip. Covid hit the following month and all international travel was suspended.  We knew when we purchased the trip that we had to use it within 15 months.  I immediately  contacted Pacific Auctions only to find out that they would "extended" our deadline by 90 days which was not enough time for us to feel safe traveling.  When I reached back out to Steve Godfrey the owner and gave him the dates that we would like to use this voucher, which was beyond the 90 day extension they granted,  Steve immediately informed me that he could not allow "any exceptions" to the travel voucher deadline and that he kindly thanked me for my donation of $5,600.  In addition, he said that he no longer has a affiliation with that travel group, and could not even offer a partial refund of my travel voucher.
In conclusion, our Rotary Club will no longer be using Pacific Auctions at our annual event.  We will re-align ourselves with a new auction company that practices the "Rotary 4 Way Test" which is a nonpartisan and nonsectarian ethical guide for all to use for personal and professional relationship.  Pacific Auctions failed the Rotary 4 Way Test.
