About Us

Instappraisal is a 100% free community-driven antique, collectible, and art information, classifieds, and appraisal site

How many times have you asked yourself, “How much is that worth?”

Instappraisal has taken the standard appraisal process turned it upside down and then tilted it on its side. Now you can get information about your item, whatever that item happens to be, from experts and the public alike, all for free.  Appraisals are entered and commented on by the public (including Instappraisal expert appraisers) providing information on history, value, authenticity, etc.

Instappraisal makes learning about your item fun, unique, and open for anyone to comment about. It turns out that there's actually no better source to know what your item is, it's history, and what it would sell for than from you and me.

Some people think that the only way to learn about your item is to take it in person to a professional appraiser to evaluate. Sometimes that works, and for truly highly valuable items it's imperative that you do find an expert and have your item appraised in person for insurance purposes. For the rest of us who want to know what our item is and what it could be worth that valuation can best be done by our open community.

Above everything else we want you to have fun, and to learn a bit too. Meet your fellow collector, be kind, and help grow the wonderful pool of knowledge by participating. You may hold the key to uncovering what that elusive item is and how much it may be worth.
