APPRAISALS
& VALUATIONS
Important
information I
get many requests for valuations and information, and I do my best to answer
them all. However, the number is increasing so I need to lay down some ground
rules to help you to help me continue to provide this service, which is free.
SOME
DO's & DON'Ts
DO
email me with your requests, I will be happy to help if I can, but please
be patient if I don't respond immediately! I deal with all requests on a first
come first served basis, but it can be very time consuming, and can sometimes
take up to a fortnight to respond.
DO
feel free to send photos by email, but please send to this email addressValuations
as this address has a greater capacity to deal with large attachments.
DOunderstand that I will only offer an appraisal on items which are
within my field of collecting. If I'm unable to provide an appraisal I will
tell you so.
DON'T
contact me by phone for a valuation, its a waste of your time and mine, as
so much is dependant on the condition of an item and a photo is a must.
DON'T
expect a formal valuation for insurance purposes, I only offer guideline valuations
which are meant to be for guidance only and does not constitute any formal
warranty of value. In requesting a valuation from Scientific Collectables,
it is deemed that you understand and accept the terms of any such valuation.
DON'T
ask me to reveal the prices of sold items, as this is a matter of privacy
between Scientific Collectables and the original purchaser, and cannot be
divulged.
DON'T
send in any items for valuation or appraisal without contacting me first.
I'm
sorry that the DON'Ts outweigh the DO's,
but they are important points to be aware of when requesting appraisals, and
will hopefully avoid any misunderstandings or disappointments.
Thank
you for your understanding, and I look forward to hearing from you.
