It's that time of year...as the sun starts shining, birds start chirping and the grass gets greener, thoughts turn toward baseball and hotdogs. For most of us, it's also timefor spring cleaning: the bi-annual swap of sweaters andshorts, and the purge that goes along with it. Set your alarmclocks. It's almost garage sale season!

At Garth's, it means that our free, walk-in appraisal days arebusier than ever, and we love it. Anyone related to the artand antiques business who denies the thrill of the (treasure)hunt is either lying or just plain numb. On those days, welive vicariously through the clients who come, towing boxes,anxiously anticipating any information related to value -hopeful that they have unearthed something significant.After all, converting this "trash" to "treasure" means a littleextra cash - to throw at debt, or to stash for a rainy day.

Some of our favorite walk-in appraisal day stories:

(Sometimes proximity or volume prohibit clients from usingour walk-in appraisal day. If this applies to you, we also offerfree virtual appraisals. Or, for those nagging insuranceagents who like to have updated information for your finearts policies, Garth's appraisers can evaluate your collectionand prepare a formal written report. Spring cleaning is notjust for streak-free windows, but also for worry-free living.)

Sp r i ng C l ean i ng -Sp r i ng C l ean i ng - i t ’ s ( n o t ) a l l i t ’ s ( n o t ) a l l G r e e kG r e e k t o m e !t o m e !

Again, we don't all have a five or six-figure treasure hiding in our drawers, but undoubtedly there is a little extra cash sitting on theshelves and in the closets at home - probably where you're least expecting. Take Grandma's sterling silver or Art Deco gold brooch.As a result of any number of economic issues, precious metal valueshave risen dramatically, and Grandma's bling has risen right along withit. Want to talk politics? Whether you are for or against gun control, youcan't argue the effect all this talk has had on Uncle Herk's gun collection.

Ever heard the expression cash is king? I recently read an article titled,"The top 10 things Greece can sell to pay off its debt". Silly, right?Maybe not. Some could say that it is more silly to let value sit idle whiledebt accumulates - or, while other investment opportunities await.

As they say, one man's trash is another man's treasure...wonderinghow to value it? Give us a call or send us an email with an image andsome pertinent details of your "find". We're thrilled to help!

Cheers and Happy Spring -

Jeff & Amelia Jeffers
