Item 3.02                Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

On October 6, 2008, in conjunction with the execution of a Development Agreement among Ableauctions.com, Inc., Abdul Ladha, who is our chief executive officer, chief financial officer and a director, Overture Development Corporation, Surrey Central City Holdings Ltd. and Bullion Reef Holdings Ltd., we issued a convertible promissory note (the “Note”) for the purchase of one-half of the issued capital stock of Surrey Central City Holdings Ltd., a corporation wholly-owned by Bullion Reef Holdings Ltd.  The sole shareholder of Bullion Reef Holdings Ltd. is the Ladha Family Trust (the “Trust”).  Although Mr. Ladha is not a beneficiary of the Trust, his family members are beneficiaries.  Information relating to this transaction can be found in the Current Reports on Form 8-K that were filed on October 9, 2008, October 23, 2008, November 3, 2008 and January 15, 2009 and in the definitive proxy statement we filed on November 21, 2008, all of which are incorporated by reference into this report.  The Development Agreement and the Note permitted Bullion Reef Holdings Ltd. to convert up to $1 million in principal amount and all of the interest accrued thereon into shares of our common stock at the price of $0.432 per share.

On April 30, 2009 Bullion Reef Holdings Ltd. assigned the Note, one-half to Mr. Ladha and one-half to his spouse, Hanifa Ladha.  On July 27, 2009 Mr. and Mrs. Ladha each converted his or her interest in the Note into 1,204,021 shares of our common stock, which represented a conversion by each of them of $500,000 in principal amount and $20,136.99 in accrued interest.

Mr. Ladha now owns directly a total of 2,526,889 shares of our common stock, or approximately 31.1%, of our common stock, while Mrs. Ladha is the beneficial owner of approximately 17.9% of our common stock.  She owns directly 1,204,021 shares of our common stock and is the beneficial owner of the 250,573 shares of our common stock held by the Ladha (1999) Family Trust.
