PLEASE TAKE 5 MINUTES OR LESS TO READ MY REQUIREMENTS, THANK YOU.
Before you start - Sorry to say, but I no longer buy, sell or trade. I just provide evaluation and appraisal.
I cannot point you to collectors, dealers or a place that will help you further as I no longer have those contacts.
My expertise is in "VINTAGE DISNEYANA", or 1930's to the mid-1970's. If you think or know that your item(s)
is from that time period then the chances are excellent that I can give you an accurate evaluation/appraisal.
Money back guaranteed if I feel I am unable to evaluate.
If you think or know that your item(s) is from 1975 to current then the odds are no so favorable that I can give you an
accurate evaluation/appraisal.
Please follow the instruction below regarding this time period.
My experience and knowledge regarding Disneyana from the 1930's, 40's and 50's is matched by few.
I know the stuff and my estimated values will be "in the ballpark".
Disney collectibles from the 1960's to the mid 1970's
are also a strong area for me, but I do not consider this era to be "Vintage".
I will not evaluate Disney animation or artwork.
You will have to find animation art dealers to answer your questions when it comes to Disney art as I just do not know the values.
If you feel your Disney item falls into the 30's to 70's time frame then the chances are I will be able
to provide you with the information you require. If I cannot then I will refund your appropriate payment.
No refunds if I give an answer, sorry!
An evaluation by me will in most cases give you at least the "Collector's Market Value" of the item.
I also should be able to provide the time period of the item and the maker, plus it's rarity and or scarcity,
and answer any relevant questions that you might have.
I need pictures. If you are unable to provide pictures via e-mail then I suggest you send them
to my postal mailing address which is provided below. If you wish to receive an evaluation without providing pictures
to me then I cannot guarantee the response I give you will be accurate.
You must supply me with an accurate description of the condition of the item(s).
I cannot give you a real time value unless I know the condition. If you require a value
and are unable to supply the condition then I will only give a value range based on poor to mint condition.
You must pay first! I will not respond to an inquiry on pre-1975 Disneyana until I have received payment.
As for Disneyana that falls within the late 1970's to current time frame I suggest the following.
Before you pay send along your inquiry, accurate description (including condition) and photo's.
I will return e-mail you with a response that will tell you whether or not I will be able to evaluate and appraise.
If I feel that I can give you an accurate account then you will have to make payment before I do so.
If you are just plain not sure of how old your item(s) is, whether Vintage or more recent then follow the same instructions above,
send an your inquiry before payment.
