Bravo David. Donors will do anything to save themselves the expense of an
appraisal. I try to avoid using Ebay since so many people don't know what
they really have and so the comparable sales data is not good. Plastic v.
real ivory scrimshaw are my favorite miscataloged items on Ebay. The site
P4A.com (prices4antiques.com) is a great site for real auction house results
that are storable by many different criteria. They have daily to annual
memberships. Once you join as an annual member you can only renew at the
monthly rate of $45 vs.. the daily rate of $10 or so. They list the auction
house, usually regional companies, the low/high estimate, lot #, sales
result and a nice description of the property. Sometimes they give a
synopsis of the auction itself. Sara Conklin, Certified Appraiser, PH:
