facilitating

        This is a brokerage service for our clients!!! We are not a store nor do we have a warehouse, hence we do not buy antiques nor fine art.

  For clients who had an official appraised by us: By official appraisal we mean that we have seen the item in person and done an official written appraisal (on-line estimation does not count). If we then feel that item is of sufficient value, and possesses sufficient market demand, we will be willing to try to facilitate/broker the sale of that item. The item will be shown both here and on the Art Price website: www.artprice.com.

  Our client (the owner of the item) will remain in possession of that item. We will just see if we can find the right discerning collector wanting to buy that item. If we do find such a buyer, and it is determined that the buyer is willing to pay for the item upon inspection. Inspection meaning that it is as we describe the item to be. Upon final inspection, we expect that the buyer will buy the item. Once the seller/client receives payment, then we will collect a percentage commission from our client.

This is simply another service for our clients, that limits the number of people coming to look at items. Moreover, it prevents those shoppers who simply want to make a low-ball from showing up at your residence. Furthermore, our experience provides the buyer with the confidence that the item is as described.

  Our fees are: 20% of any value between $0- $1,000
                       15% of any value between $1,000-$5,000
                       10% of any value above $5,000

  The buyer pays no premium!!! The seller only pays when the item is sold.

   We do require an agreement to have the exclusive right to try and sell the item over a minimal of 3 month period at an agreed price.
