THIS IS A TYPICAL REQUEST AND MY TYPICAL RESPONSE.
Hello,
I found your information on the internet. My husband and I have two Harold Newton paintings that my husband inherited from his grandmother. We have had them for several years and now are looking to sell them. I am writing you for advice on what they might be worth and how to go about finding a buyer.
I've uploaded some photos. The sizes are approximately 23x35 and 23x31.
Sincerely,

Hi, *anonymous*.
I can take care of evaluating them and also finding a buyer for you.
I've been searching for and finding buyers for these things since 1995, so I can guarantee success.
First thing you need to know is how much they are worth in today's market.It takes special knowledge as H Newtons are currently valued between $500.00 and $10,000.00.
I can issue certificates of authenticity and appraisal for my standard fee of $100.00. An example can be found on the buy-sell-trade website below.
The value I place on the certs is a high one, a "replacement cost" for insurance purposes. Since I buy as well as appraise, in addition I will give you a rundown of the following values.
Insurance value.
Fair retail asking price.
Fair retail acceptable price for offers. (All buyers ask for "the best price")
Fair wholesale, or what you could expect at public auction such as eBay.
My "return to you" price if I sell them FOR you on consignment.
My outright "write a check and be done" buy price.
My goal is always to be accurate enough to insure a quick sale. Many galleries and auction houses appraise them ridiculously high, and they don't sell quickly.
Again, the fee for a certificate is $100.00 by check or $105.00 via Paypal for each.
I do most of my certificates (I've done hundreds) via images such as you've sent.

If we need to meet in person, I live near Tampa, but I will be in West Palm Beach the first weekend of every month, 12 months a year.

ReplyDeleteI have an original oil painting that Robert Butler painted for me in 1986. It's 48×24 & in original frame. I, unfortunately, need to sell it & was wondering if you could give me a price or know someone who would like to buy it. Thanks
