Where do u go to get a honest estimate of what u think might b of value. It seems difficult to take an item of value to anyone and have them tell u it has some value. They tell u it aint worth crap and offer u nothing ony to turn around a recoup the value of it of it themsleves. honestly if u know of a trusted appraiser let me know. I have some things such as very old tools I mean over 100 years old yet i never can get an honest apraisal.

Things are worth what someone will pay. But if you have old tools check into Mid-West Tool Collectors Assoc. You can find them on the web. My dad was a member.

Find someone who specializes in the type of antique you want evaluated, tell them you need it appraised for insurance purposes, don't tell them you're planning on selling the item.

Also, there are many books, onlline sites that can provide good info re: the value of your items.

Ye gods, where'd you learn how to frigging SPELL?

You write like an ignoramus.

Don't ever post again until you've learned how to spell properly, and SCREW the Internet shorthand practice (u for "you," b for "be,' etc.). Internet shorthand is for people who are too lazy and too FRIGGING STUPID to use proper spelling! No wonder this country's illiteracy rate is so high, and still climbing!

Your old tool is your business and more information that we want to know :)
