Shop in greater Seattle for .300 Savage appraisal?
« on: June 08, 2008, 09:46:37 PM »
I'd like to get my .300 Savage appraised for value, have the barrel condition graded, etc. Can anyone recommend a shop in the greater Seattle area? Thanks.

butches is an ok place...they will give you the price they would pay for it though. i dont know if they woudl give you an actual value of the gun. i know i sold them a rifle last year and they told me it was only worth $97...then i went back in there and they have it for $190. so yeah...

make sure you ask for the actual value. if they think you wanna sell it to them they wont tell you what you wanna know.

If you want a guess at value that is one thing, If you want an 'appraisal' for insurance value, that is all together different.
Most places that are recognized will charge you 35-50 bucks for an appraisal that will hold up in a legal battle. You will also have to pay them to testify if it comes to that.
I know a guy in Olympia, that has won court cases. Let me know if you want his name.
