Good information with a sensible price if I was going to auction. Helpful as I had no clue of maker or value. Would recommend.

Always feel like we get an honest appraisal

Fast and clear on what the estimation is based upon.

I've used this company a few times to get background on some interesting objects and paintings. What started out a few years ago as a well informed service, offering good detail and history in each valuation, has turned in to a pointless waste of money. My latest experience has told me nothing, a 1940/50s painting in the style of Gregoire Boonzaire, "A Summer in Arles", a fact that was not even noted. A man in the street would probably have given me a better insight and information, what is an expert....? I think they need to reevaluate.

Very timely appraisal. Much appreciated. Wish I had known upfront that back of painting was important. I asked about it day of appraisal hoping to send a pic of the back. Would have loved to finish it up with them seeing the back. Didn’t happen.

The valuation was simplistic and completely off base. The person doing the valuation based their assessment on a couple of markings on the item I wanted evaluated, as well as the overall look. The person had no expertise or background at all in the type of item I wanted evaluated and casually conferred upon it a fairly high value, when, in fact, the item (a nautical sextant) was a poorly made replica, which I learned by doing a little bit more research. Very disappointed and zero trust in this service.

Ik had misschien graag een iets uitgebreidere beschrijving over het kastje gehad. Een beetje meer geschiedenis over het item bijvoorbeeld. Maar overall ben ik tevreden hoor.

Bedankt en tot de volgende keer.

Not just a value but also good narrative to support it with facts and figures.

Snel en duidelijke opmerkingen. Is betaalbaar ook.

I paid twice by accident and they let me know immediately. Very clear explanation of why the price what is what is.

Did not meet the timeline but investigated the item thoroughly and gave me the answers I needed. I was very happy with the result.

An easy, speedy, and inexpensive valuation service. I've used them before and will use them again.

Quick and good information about my object, very happy!

An accurate appraisal requires that the piece be correctly identified. In my case, any fool could see it's a "container." What was it used for? Which "immortal characters" are displayed? How was the date of manufacture determined? The key item missing is that appraisals provide information on how the estimated value on the client's object was derived, such as "based on the recent sale at auction of similar items in 20XX, we place its value at....", and then those auctions are cited. Therefore, as an appraisal it carries no validity. The appraiser's description was simply re-wording what I had submitted, with no translation of the Chinese characters on the piece. It appears that the firm had no idea of what my object is and simply took a shot in the dark.

LOVE this service and will continue to use it. Big benefit to me and more to come

Prompt and efficient appraisal. Thank you.
