Violin Appraisal Can Be Easy

By Kenneth Smith


You may have a dusty violin sitting in your attic. You have been thinking about getting it down and cleaning it up. You have been thinking about playing. You may know how to play or you may need to take lessons to learn. Getting a violin appraisal may be a good idea. You may want to trade yours in for another one of more value and quality.

A qualified appraiser may exist in your local town or you may have to look outside of your area. Look into all of the possibilities to see what works the best for you. It is good to keep an open mind when looking for new ideas like this if you are not knowledgeable about it.

Your instrument may be worth more than you think. It may have a lot of value or it may not. Consider keeping it and not selling it. If you want to play the instrument and it has some sentimental value to you, do not sell it. Take some lessons so you can learn how to play unless you know already how to play.

Various websites may offer you some good information. You may be able to trust the appraisers that you have already gone to, but it never hurts to look on your own. You could get some more appraising done over the Internet, too. Look into all of the possibilities.

You could also pay admission to go into a show where people from different places come together to show off their skills at appraising instruments, antiques, or cars. Find out when the next convention like this is happening in your area. Find out what the dates are and the cost to get in. Be willing to get out of your comfort zone so you can meet others and get to know them for friendship and help finding the market value for your instrument.

Do not be afraid to reach out to people that you do not know and try to get to know them. They can be a support to you in ways that you may have not imagined. Network and get to know people there and by word of mouth, you can get your needs met with figuring out the cost of your violin.

Tell them what value you want for it. They will most certainly ask you that. If you do not have a lot of experience in the field of appraisal, you will probably have no idea what is should be worth. Tell people how much money you want for it and see if they are willing to give you what you want for it.

Be consistent when trying to find the right appraisal. You will be surprised at the way that markets fluctuate. Prices go up and then they go down. It is not always stable get a good price for it when the time seems right. Getting advice about the instability of the market may help you decide which direction to go in.
