Program Description

Event Details

Author, Auctioneer, Appraiser and Radio show Host Mike Ivankovich will introduce you to “What Determines Value"…and reveal what your Antiques, Collectibles, and Personal Treasures are really worth today. Each attendee is invited to bring in 1-2 items for Mike to appraise. Reviewing objects over Zoom can be tricky, so here are a few things to keep in mind:

  • Proper camera positioning will be important because if Mike can’t see the item, he won’t be able to appraise it.
  • Since he can’t actually see the item in person, he’ll probably ask a few questions about markings, condition, etc.
  • Participants should have one back-up item for Mike to appraise. That way if he can’t virtually appraise the primary item, he can appraise the back-up item,
  • We’ve seen that a Virtual Background can distort how an item looks so we will ask that Virtual Backgrounds be turned off when showing their items.

Mike Ivankovich has been involved in some phase of the Antiques & Collectibles business for more than 40 years. He is the host of the “What’s It Worth? Ask Mike the Appraiser” Radio Show that airs every Friday morning from 9:30-10:30 AM on WBCB 1490 AM in Philadelphia PA. As a Home Downsizing Expert & Author he guides clients through the entire Home Downsizing process, helping them deal with their Antiques, Collectibles, and General Household Contents.
