<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BooksB4Coins, post: 2009088, member: 36230&quot;]That&#039;s not at all an unreasonable fee, and is especially true if done by someone who either stands behind their appraisal and/or has their name attached to it (reputation). Beyond this, there can (at least potentially) be great value in having a paid appraisal done by a truly qualified and capable individual, and if you&#039;ve ever seen one done by one of the schmuck &quot;<i>redbook/bluebook experts</i>&quot; out there offering their, ahem, &quot;<i>services</i>&quot;, the reasons why would be clear. There are many people out there willing to do &quot;<i>appraisals</i>&quot;, and more often than not, you get what you pay for. While not directed towards you (none of this is) but to use your example: that $150 &quot;<i>saved</i>&quot; easily could be paid for (in some instances) by a single overlooked variety or improperly graded/evaluated coin. My only point is that all &quot;<i>appraisals</i>&quot; are not created equal, so the fee a certain someone charges should be much less of a concern than the person doing the job.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
