Independent appraisers in Wisconsin?

I'm in Madison and there aren't any here, but there are a number in the north Chicago suburbs. But there are jewelers here I would trust for a basic evaluation like for insurance purposes.

Draeb GG Candidate 920.743.4233 Wisconsin Rapids Rachel Ann Palinski Candidate 715.325.6394 These are the appraiser members or NAJA in Wisconsin, however three are "candidates" which is not necessarily the expertis level you require. THe one in Milwaukee may be the pick of the four although you have to clarify if this person is "independent" or a retailer who also does appraising. You can visit the ISA and ASA websites for possibly a couple other choices. David S. Atlas GG(GIA), ASG, Sr. Mbr. NAJA www.datlas.com

They can be highly qualified, but the potential of bias is there even when they are acting in good faith. AGS-ICGA's are certainly a great additional choice if one is nearby. David S.
