"Our apologies that you considered are pricing too high. We believe we are competitively priced for the Tampa Bay market and charge lower flat rate fees than most of the area retailers for appraisal work. We work with clients to offer discounts on multi item appraisals and charge lower fees for gold only items or we work with clients to do a few pieces at a time in order to keep within their budget. Our appraisals are comprehensive and detailed with color photographs included and all examinations are performed in front of the client, while they watch. We appreciate that you contacted us for this service and are sorry that we were not able to help you."
Each item to be appraised is carefully examined in your presence, notes are taken....and a picture too.
The item/s are returned to you.....and within a week, you receive in the mail a detalied appraisal which is quite a piece of work itself !!
