I love the information put forth by Will. Informative and interesting. I turn to worthpoint.com all the time when I am looking for comparisons on items we are going to represent. A well thought out interview by Martin and Reyne. Thank you for sharing.
Very, very interesting interview. I am a subscriber to Worthpoint. I use it almost everyday. I do have a mild criticism. I’ve started a survey of my “look ups”. So far this year, 98% of the results are those from old eBay auctions. I hope the “new” enhancements on Worthpoint include a broader range of price results.
It is always a pleasure to hear Will talk about collections and collecting. Thank you for having Will as a guest.
As one of the Worthologists for WorthPoint.com specializing in political, White House, and antique flags, I had a great time at Brimfield a couple of years ago just learning about antiques from Will. We just followed him with a camera and microphone from place to place and listened to his great, in depth knowledge on anything and everything that caught his fancy. See him on WorthPoint videos.
Will has so much to talk about and so he missed the opportunity to talk about his evaluators, called Worthologists. Nearly 60 specialists in so many of the major collectible communities are available to talk with directly to evaluate an item you may have. Each Worthologist has at least 20 years of experience, have written on the subject, is considered a ‘guru’ within their specialty, and more than well versed on history, trends, and expertise that others rely on.
From trivets, to flags, to Louis XV, to teapots, to, well, just about anything, say hello to your specialist by going on WorthPoint.com and click on Worthologist.

I used priceminer for years for help researching values. I felt cheated and not a little disrespected as a customer when Priceminer stopped updating their source data, focused their efforts on lauching Worthpoint and didn’t bother to tell long time Priceminer users of the changes. Good for profits – bad for long term relationships IMHO.
