We offer two levels, or types, of Professional Appraisals, based upon our clients varied needs. Unlike the simple value given at your local gun shop, our appraisals involve professionally prepared and researched documentation without bias.

The two levels of Professional Appraisals are:

PROFESSIONAL OPINION OF VALUE
Our Professional Opinion of Value is developed to best establish values of firearms for personal use; however, this appraisal does not meet the requirements for court proceedings or the IRS, and is not USPAP* compliant. There are no photographs included.

          $45.00 each for first three firearms -  All others brought in at the same time will be $30.00 each.

FULL PROFESSIONAL APPRAISAL
Our Full Professional Appraisal is USPAP* compliant and is prepared to meet all the elements of a document presented in court, and to satisfy the IRS requirements that define a “Qualified Appraisal”. Photographs are included, either printed with the Appraisal, or on a “flash drive”, at client’s request.

          $95.00 each for first three firearms - All others brought in at the same time will be $50.00 each.
