<p>[QUOTE=&quot;journeymagazine, post: 9508930, member: 84&quot;]Heritage called me back &amp; told me she was sorry but the person who would restore it gave her a $1,000 - $1,200!</p><p>I asked her what happened to her estimate of a couple of hundred dollars and she said she didn&#039;t know &amp; apologized - then asked me if I wanted to go ahead?</p><p>I thanked her but declined.</p><p>I used a auction house in West Palm Beach to sell some things a few months ago and they got pretty good prices + the owner only charged me 20% (after seeing how crowded my house is I&#039;m guessing she was hoping to be able to sell more!). The only downside was I had to wait 30 days to get paid. I also have a large 1879 Charles Day Hunt painting + the 2 Miro Cartons/Artigas books(?), the Keith Haring silkscreen + a few other things (maybe the 2 big chrome sconces w/the cool but damaged gold shades) that I&#039;d like to sell to make just a little room (I sold 4 large paintings yesterday at my sat. estate sale &amp; you can&#039;t even tell!), so I think I&#039;m going to go with her again (also I can drive the items to them instead of fragile packing &amp; shipping).</p><p>Does that sound OK, especially since the painting is good but not super valuable?</p><p>Thank you all for the help &amp; info on this painting![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
