<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bronwen, post: 4204164, member: 5833&quot;]The question I cannot answer is how much value is added to each sword by having a written appraisal to go with it.&nbsp; It&#039;s an expense that may be a good investment.</p><p><br /></p><p>Maybe start by requesting a verbal appraisal on just a few items, which hopefully will give you the terms that will allow you to do your own Internet research into what similar swords are selling for, &amp; see how useful you find the info.</p><p><br /></p><p>We do around here all the time exactly what an appraiser does: first characterize the item, gather as many descriptive terms as we can &amp; see if we can identify the item; with that info in hand, go searching for similar items that have been sold.&nbsp; You can do the same with info you get from the appraiser.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
