Camera Identification and Valuation
Services
|
|
|
I can provide you with identification
and the current market value of your
cameras or lenses, as well as
provide historical information on
your
photographic
item. I am very familiar with most
cameras, lenses and related
photographica from the 1839-1969
time period and/or can research
them quite easily. I have
been buying, selling and collecting
antique cameras for 30 years.
I am the founder (1995) of what was
the largest camera collecting email
group in the world, "The Internet
Directory of Camera Collectors." I
am also a member of the Photographic Historical Society of New
England and the Daguerreian Society and have
also exhibited some of my collection at The
MIT Museum in Cambridge,
Massachusetts.
I have been buying, selling and trading
photographic equipment on Ebay since
1996 and have over 2,500 positive
feedback comments with no negative feedback
in over 24 years. Click here to see My Ebay feedback page. You can email me at jake@antiquecameras.net

I am offering two levels of services,
delivered via email:
Level One
For just $ 5.00, I will provide you with
the current market value of your
camera (or lens or other photographic
items) and with basic data such as the
year built, model and manufacturer.
This value is based on current SOLD
auctions on eBay in the US as well as
published price guides and my experience
in buying, selling, trading and collecting
cameras for the past 30 years.
I am not a static price guide or a
computer generated database - I am a human
who works and deals in the photographic
market on a daily basis.
Level Two
For
$ 12.00, I will provide you with
the current market value of
your camera (or lens)
and historical information
and/or additional research on your
particular item.

services
** In the event your item is
worth less than $ 40.00 US, I will
let you know that FREE of
charge.**
I will also give a
discount on multiple
evaluations or
collections - just
ask.
HOW DOES THIS WORK
?
Email me and describe the item(s) you
want identified and/or valued. I will
email you back and let you know if I am
able to help. Include photos if you have them and any
serial numbers you find.
Click HERE TO EMAIL ME or email jake@antiquecameras.net
If I can help, I will email you back
and send you a link so you can pay for
the $ 5 or $ 12 service via
paypal.com. Payment is easily made
with a credit card for your protection
and paypal buyer safeguards. Using a
credit card protects you. You do
not need to be a paypal member or have
an account with them. In some
cases, I can also accept
VENMO. Thank you.
*Please note that my
valuations may or may not be
used for insurance valuation
purposes. Some insurance
companies only accept a
written appraisal by someone
certified and/or
licensed in your state to
offer such information.
My valuations, while accurate
and supoprted by public online
auctions (eBay), are typically
used to let owners know the
current market value of their
treasure. However, check with
your insurer as I have
provided many valuations for
insurance purposes. I can ever
send you a sample that can be
provided to your
insurer.

If you want to pay first, please do
so below. I am able to
provide refunds if needed.
Please note that I try to
respond timely, but life sometimes
intrudes.... Most appraisals are
done within 24-48 hours, but sometimes
delays happen. Thank you !
