​Fair Market Value (FMV) – (middle “secondary Market” value, usually for IRS purposes) Appraised "Fair Market Value" is the IRS definition as stated in the Treasury Regulation Sections 1.170A-1 (c) (2) is "the price at which the property would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller, neither being under any compulsion to buy or to sell and both having reasonable knowledge of relevant facts." (According to Technical Advisory Memorandum 9235005 [May 27, 1992], fair market value should include the buyer's premium.) (AAA 2019 Definitions of Value, p.1)

We don't have a "one size fits all" fee schedule, as the fee is based upon the complexity of the assignment.

Simple appraisals for items (such as a gold wedding band or gold chain) start at $80.  More complicated appraisals that require extensive gemological testing and/or research will require a higher fee.
​
For large jobs, bulk rates can be negotiated.
​
Travel lab hourly rates can be negotiated if the assignment requires me to evaluate your items at your house, bank, office, etc.
