Our
Appraisal Standards Vintage
Drum Center is dedicated to performing your appraisal with
professional competence and a high standard of ethics.
Here is what you can expect from us:
- Our
estimate of market value is based on factual information
known at the time of the appraisal and we shall offer only
opinions which are objective, impartial and unbiased.
- If
the value of the item you are having us appraise for you
is extremely low and in our estimation not worth the investment
of the appraisal fee, we will let you know before we complete
your appraisal. You will then have the option of having
us completing your appraisal report or cancelling your appraisal
order.
- We
will decline appraisal requests that contain false or misleading
information and those in which the identity and authenticity
of the appraisal item are in question.
- If
due to inadequate information and/or digital images we are
unable to arrive at a value conclusion which is not misleading
to you, we will decline providing the appraisal report.
We may request that you submit more information in order
to arrive at a non-misleading value conclusion.
- We
shall have no undisclosed past, present or contemplated
future financial interest in any vintage gear we appraise
and no undisclosed personal interest concerning the parties
involved.
- We
shall decline providing an online appraisal report in which
potential value levels are so great as to warrant, in our
opinion, a personal inspection by a qualified professional
appraiser.
