I am a certified appraiser from Asheford Institutes of Antiques. An appraiser can become very valued to appraise something for insurance purposes. Also, having an appraisal for an item may get you a higher return on the dollar vs. one without an appraisal. With the internet marketplace as large as it is collectibles and antiques are selling at all different prices. I do have techniques to appraise an item with current fair price. Many collectible items have gone from high to low prices in the years. Some have bounced back.
I can appraise and item or full collection. Cost will depend on time spent.
Please note after the appraisal I may make an offer on an item or collection.
