💰 Looking to Sell Instead of Appraise? If you are not looking for a formal appraisal and simply want to sell an individual piece or an entire collection, please click here to visit our [We Buy Arrowheads] page. We provide fast, fair cash offers for collections valued at $700 or more!
🔍 Every Appraisal Begins with a 100% FREE Initial Evaluation
We believe in absolute transparency. You will never pay for an appraisal upfront. Every request begins with our 100% Free Initial Assessment.
Once we review your photos at no charge, we will give you our expert opinion and help you choose the best path forward based on your specific goals. If your situation requires an upgrade to a formal, certified valuation, we offer three tailored tracks:
- Photo-Based Appraisal: Ideal for fast, visual valuations of individual key pieces or small artifact groupings.
- Certified Written Appraisal: A formal, legally compliant document detailing Fair Market Value and Replacement Costs—ideal for insurance adjusters, estate planning, and probate courts.
- On-Site / In-Home Appraisal: Designed specifically for large, museum-grade collections or executors managing complex inheritance liquidations.
-
Our formal paid appraisals start at a modest $40.00, but are only processed after your free initial review is completed.
how it works: our simple 3-step process

Step 1: Take Clear Photos
To provide a fast, accurate, and FREE initial evaluation, please take photos using these basic guidelines:
- Lighting: Place items on a solid-color surface in a well-lit room. If items are in glass display cases, please open the lid to prevent reflection and glare.
- Scale: Place a standard inch ruler or tape measure directly next to the artifacts for size reference.
- Large Collections: Do not let items overlap. For multiple frames or drawers, include a small handwritten note in the photo showing the "Frame Number" and an estimated item count.
- File Size: Set your smartphone or tablet's email photo size to “Medium” or "Large" (ideally 500KB to 1.5MB per image). Note: Please do not send "Actual Size / Full Resolution" images, as they can overload the email server and prevent your message from coming through.
Step 2: Email Your Details Directly to Us
Open your regular email app (like Apple Mail, Outlook, Gmail, or Yahoo) and start a new message to: buyer@arrowheads.com
Please attach your photos and include these 2 critical details in your text:
- The Reason for the Appraisal: Please let us know if this is for a potential sale, an estate/inheritance, insurance policies, or just personal curiosity. (Without this, we won't know which specialist department to route you to after your free review).
- History: A brief background of how and when the collection was acquired. Family history, finding logs, or older documentation adds great value!
Step 3: Receive Your Expert Recommendation
Our team reviews submissions daily. Once we look over your artifacts, we will reply with our complimentary initial assessment and outline exactly how you should proceed to get the maximum benefit for your individual needs.
disclaimer:
You agree that you will not hold us responsible for the accuracy, or inaccuracy, of the appraisal and so far as the law permits release, discharge, and absolve us for any damages of any kind, nature, or extent. All appraisals necessarily constitute professional judgment. Reasonable persons may disagree on the value of a particular item. An appraisal is our opinion based on the information provided; it is not a guarantee. Inaccurate information, poor-quality photographs, and other such factors may affect the accuracy of our opinion. In some cases, the appraiser will make an offer to purchase the appraised item; caution is advised and you are encouraged to obtain another appraisal report, in your discretion, before accepting the offer.
