As an antiques dealer, I'm frequently asked how to find out the value of heirlooms and collectibles. Of course an appraiser can research it for you for official business purposes, but it's possible to determine an estimated value for yourself by looking at what similar items are priced at. 

 

The Insider can be a help in learning about the prices of various antique and collectible items. There's great variety in the Insider, and once you find something similar, you can then go see it in person to compare size, condition, etc.

 

If you or someone you know are looking for the values of your antique and collectible items, try the Insider and the Insider Archives.
