Those are great tips for learning. I want to take a course from one of the antique schools like Asheford Institute or American Society of Appraisers, since I think the more education you have on a subject, the less likely you’ll be to make errors in your buying later on. I really like how the new “tips” here are laid out… very informative! Kudos on the new lay out!
