Dear Shareholder,


The 2006 Annual General Meeting of the shareholders of Ableauctions.com, Inc. will be held at 11:00 am on Friday, September 29, 2006, at Suite 1000 - 595 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia. In addition to the items set forth in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders and Proxy Statement, we will report on current activities and will provide you with an opportunity to discuss matters of interest to you as a shareholder.


We hope that you will be able to attend our Annual Meeting.  However, whether or not you plan to attend, please sign, date, and promptly return the enclosed proxy by mail, or fax it to us to ensure that your shares are represented.


2005 In Review - 2005 was a pivotal and exciting time for Ableauctions. It was the year that we built on the solid foundation that we laid in previous years - a foundation on which to build an exciting technology company.  In the process, we made significant progress towards accomplishing many of our objectives and milestones.  


Live Auctions and Technology - In the area of live auctions and technology, it was a year of significant achievements.  We met most of the goals we set at the beginning of the year and surpassed a number of strategic objectives.  


We increased revenues from live auctions in 2005 by approximately 40% from 2004, to over $500,000. Revenues from live auctions for the year ending 2006 are expected to be higher.  As of June 30, 2006, live auction revenues were 75% higher year-to-date compared to the same period in 2005.


We also increased the number of auction sessions we facilitated in 2005 by approximately 63% from 2004.  We facilitated approximately 708 auction sessions in 2005 compared to 435 sessions in 2004. The number of auction sessions are also projected to be higher in 2006.  As of June 30, 2006, we had already recorded 570 auction sessions compared to 350 during the same period in 2005.  


The total bidder base in 2005 grew dramatically.  At the end of 2004, the total bidder base was 32,779 bidders.  At the end of 2005, the total bidder base was 80,578.  In the first six moths of 2006, the total bidder base is at 122,321.


Liquidation Business - Revenues from our liquidation business dropped slightly in 2005, but have rebounded back sharply in the first two quarters of 2006.  We had annual revenues of approximately

$3.3 million in 2005 compared to revenues of $3.5 in 2004.   Revenues from our liquidation business for the year 2006 are projected to be higher.  In the first two quarters of 2006, revenues from our liquidation business have already exceeded $3.0 million.


Acquisitions and Investments - We have not been successful in finding suitable companies to acquire. In order to increase shareholder value, we will continue to invest any excess capital we have including, if

we deem it to be in the best interests of our shareholders, by repurchasing and retiring some of our stock in the marketplace.  Income from our investments in 2005 increased to $773,572 from $650,795 in 2004.


Our shareholders’ equity in 2005, defined as the value of the Company’s assets minus its liabilities, increased to $12,789,331 compared to $11,574,756 in 2004.  


Our consolidated revenues and net income in 2005 remained almost unchanged from the previous year.  We had revenues of $4,428,912 and net earnings of $437,182.  We expect sales and revenue figures for 2006 to surpass those of 2005.

  

Our Drive - Our mission is to be a world leader in providing liquidation and merchandising services and we believe that our long term success in this area depends on our continued innovation and integration of technologies and services for auctioneers and liquidators worldwide.


We have managed to attract some of the world’s leading companies to partner with in strategically delivering our services and technology, and we have established an experienced management team, all dedicated towards building a significant technology company globally.


With innovative technology, good management and the support of our shareholders, we look forward to achieving our goals in the coming years.


On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to acknowledge the dedication, commitment and hard work of all our employees and consultants.  It is a privilege to be associated with them and to serve you, our shareholders.


Yours Faithfully,



/s/ Abdul Ladha

COMMUNICATIONS WITH MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS


The Board of Directors has not established a formal process for shareholders to send communications to its members.  Any shareholder may send a communication to any member of the Board of Directors, in care of our address and we will forward any such communication to the Board member.  If the shareholder would like the communication to be confidential, it should be so marked.


ATTENDANCE OF BOARD MEMBERS AT ANNUAL SHAREHOLDERS’ MEETING


Each of the members of the Board of Directors will be required to attend the Annual Meeting of our shareholders.  


REPORT ON COMMITTEES


The Board of Directors has one standing committee, which is the Audit Committee.  Information regarding the functions of the Audit Committee, its present membership and the number of meetings held by the Audit Committee during the 2005 fiscal year is described below.


Audit Committee.  The Audit Committee is responsible for recommending to the Board of Directors the selection of independent public accountants to audit our books and records annually, to discuss with the independent auditors and internal auditors the scope and results of any audit, to review and approve any nonaudit services performed by our independent auditing firm, and to review certain related party transactions.  The members of the Audit Committee are Messrs Barrett Sleeman, David Vogt and Michael Boyling.  The Audit Committee met four times in the year 2005.


The Audit Committee is currently composed of three directors who are independent directors as defined under Rule 121 of the American Stock Exchange.  The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board of Directors.  We do not believe that any of the members of the Audit Committee would qualify as an “Audit Committee Financial Expert” as defined by Item 401 of Regulation SB promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  However, we are in compliance with section 121 of the Rules of the American Stock Exchange, which requires that at least one member of our Audit Committee is financially sophisticated.  We believe that both Mr. Barrett Sleeman and Mr. Michael Boyling meet the criteria of financial sophistication.


REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE


The Audit Committee oversees our financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors.  Management is responsible for our financial statements and the financial reporting process, including the system of internal controls.  The independent auditors are responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles.  In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with management and the independent auditors the audited financial statements that have been included in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005.


The Audit Committee has discussed with the independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, Communication with Audit Committees, as amended.  In addition, the Audit Committee has discussed with the independent auditors the auditors’ independence from the Company and its management including the matters in the written disclosures provided to the Audit Committee as required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees.


The Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors, and the Board of Directors approved, the inclusion of the audited financial statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the 2005 fiscal year for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


The Audit Committee has not yet recommended the selection of our independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006.

Members of the Audit Committee


/s/Barrett Sleeman

/s/Dr. David Vogt

/s/Michael Boyling


NOMINATION OF DIRECTORS


We do not have, nor are we required by the rules of the American Stock Exchange to have, a standing nominating or compensation committee.  Our Board of Directors is made up of four members, three of whom are deemed to be “independent”, as that term is defined in the rules of the American Stock Exchange.  Nominees to the Board of Directors were selected and approved by our three independent Board members, Barrett Sleeman, Dr. David Vogt and Michael Boyling.


The Board of Directors, acting as a Nominating Committee, does not have a policy with regard to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by shareholders.  The Board of Directors has made no determination as to whether or not such a policy should be adopted.  The Board of Directors will consider candidates recommended by shareholders.  Shareholders wishing to recommend a candidate for membership on the Board of Directors should submit to us the name of the individual and other pertinent information, including a short biography and contact information, in the manner described below in this Proxy Statement in the section titled “Shareholder Proposals”.


Some, but not all, of the qualifications that may be considered by the Board of Directors in choosing a director are:


·

Minimum, relevant employment experience;

·

Familiarity with generally accepted accounting principles and the preparation of financial statements;

·

Post secondary education or professional license;

·

Previous experience as a Board member of an operating company; and

·

The ability to commit the number of hours per year necessary to discharge his or her duty as a member of its Board of Directors.


A candidate for director must agree to abide by our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.


Our goal is to seek to achieve a balance of knowledge and experience on our Board.  To this end, we seek nominees with the highest professional and personal ethics and values, an understanding of our business and industry, diversity of business experience and expertise, a high level of education, broad-based business acumen, and the ability to think strategically.  Although we use the criteria listed above as well as other criteria to evaluate potential nominees, we do not have a stated minimum criteria for nominees.  The Board does not use different standards to evaluate nominees depending on whether they are proposed by our directors and management or by our shareholders.  To date, we have not paid any third parties to assist us in finding director nominees.


The Board of Directors has not received a nominee from a shareholder who is not also an officer or director of Ableauctions.  Each nominee to our Board of Directors expressed a willingness to serve during the 2006 fiscal year and, based on a review of his qualifications, each was deemed to be a suitable candidate for nomination.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions


Within two years of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, the following related party transactions occurred:


At December 31, 2004, we leased 8,000 square feet of showroom and office space at 1963 Lougheed Highway, Coquitlam, British Columbia.  The monthly rental payments were $5,681.  The landlord was Bullion Reef Holdings Ltd., a private company wholly-owned by Hanifa Ladha, who is the wife of our President, Abdul Ladha.  The rent payments were below market, as verified independently by Burgess Austin valuators.


On February 24, 2005, we, through our assignee and wholly owned subsidiary 0716590 B.C. Ltd., exercised an option to purchase the property located at 1963 Lougheed Highway, Coquitlam, British Columbia.  On the date of purchase, the building had two tenants besides us.  The purchase price was $2,221,316 and the effective date of the transaction was January 1, 2005.  We paid the purchase price in cash.  The property consists of 19,646 square feet of commercial space and 2,300 square feet of residential space and is located on approximately eight-tenths of an acre.  The property currently serves as our headquarters.  A portion of the property continues to be leased to the remaining two tenants.
