Online Appraisal
What is Online Appraisal?
Academy of Manuscript and Autograph™
online appraisal reports are prepared in compliance with the Uniform
Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) as promulgated
by The Appraisal Foundation of Washington DC. In addition, online
appraisals prepared by AMA appraisers conform to the appraisal
report writing standards of the USPAP Code of Ethics.
What's the difference between a regular appraisal and an online
appraisal?
Formal
appraisals are extensively researched documents prepared by
specialists who are qualified appraisers trained in appraisal theory
and principles. Typically, formal appraisals are based on a physical
examination of the object being appraised and are used for
insurance, tax liability and other purposes where formal
documentation is needed. Because formal appraisals require a
hands-on, in-depth study and are legally binding, appraisers
typically charge $75 to $250 per hour for such services.
Online appraisals are based on digital photos and descriptions
submitted by you. Therefore, the accuracy and depth of an online
appraisal depends very much on the quality and authenticity of the
information you provide. So don't be afraid to get specific! The
appraisers at the
Academy of Manuscript and Autograph™
are
highly qualified and are among the most respected in the industry
Please note that auctions, by their very nature, are not usually the
best guideposts for value. They are to be considered a volatile
market which can often end up with prices much higher or lower than
the solid wholesale or retail non-auction values.
Our appraisal includes review of extant records of auction and
private sales, prevailing fair market value and trends forecasting,
and such other factors as content, condition, and relative demand
for the material.
Please note: Appraisal of
autograph material is not authentication. We take the position that
material presented for appraisal is authentic. If you desire
authentication as well as appraisal, please read further.
