“What’s It’s Worth?” Appraisal Program
Thursday, February 11 | 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm | add to Google Calendar
This is a Zoom event. To register, email cutchel@wlsmail.org
Author, Auctioneer, Appraiser and Radio show Host Mike Ivankovich will introduce you to “What Determines Value“…and reveal what your Antiques, Collectibles, and Personal Treasures are really worth today. Mike will begin with a 20-minute discussion on “10 Factors That Will Always Impact the Value of Your Treasures”. He will then immediately transition to the appraisal portion of the program and share many Buying & Selling Tips & Strategies. Each attendee is invited to bring in 1-2 items for Mike to appraise.
PLEASE NOTE:
-
- The order of appraisals will be at the Moderator’s discretion
- Proper camera positioning will be important because if Mike can’t see the item, he won’t be able to appraise it.
- Since he can’t actually see the item in person, he’ll probably ask a few questions about markings, condition, etc.
- Participants should have one back-up item for Mike to appraise. That way if he can’t virtually appraise the primary item, he can appraise the back-up item,
- A Virtual Background can distort how an item looks so we ask that Virtual Backgrounds be turned off when showing items.
