General Policy
|
- All bows must be visually inspected prior to
issue of any written appraisal including updates.
- In some rare instances, it is required to take
the hair out of the bow or remove the leather or wrapping on a stick to
determine hidden repairs or authenticity. The above fees do not cover the
replacement of hair or wrappings.
- On the sale of any bow valued greater than $
1,000.00 from my shop I will include an insurance appraisal letter at no
additional cost to the buyer.
- I do not give telephone opinions on the
valuations of bows.
- I do not give retroactive appraisals.

|
Insurance Limitations
|
- My appraisals are an estimate of retail
replacement value. They are written for insurance purposes only and are for the sole
person to whom it is addressed. They are not appraisals of the wholesale or
resale value of the item described and one should not expect to be able to sell
it at the retail replacement value estimated. The estimated values are based upon
current U.S. pricing trends for like objects and exclude all taxes, freight,
additional fees or discounts. The descriptions are limited to a detailed visual
examination of the bow in the condition in which it was delivered. They are made with the understanding that the Appraiser assumes no
liability with respect to any action that may be taken on the basis of the Appraisal.

Certifications
|
|
- I issue Certificates only on select bows that I sell. My certificates describe and certify but do not specify value. Photos are included when the value is over $5,000.00. For bows if a value less than $ 5,000.00 photos can be had for an additional fee of $ 50.00.
