I mean, honestly, the frame looks nice, that alone is probably worth at least $5. The painting is just getting thrown in for free.

you serious? youre probably write but at estate sales i assume all art at least 1 dollar of value, but i dont know shit about frames

Can't tell what size it is, but it looks like maybe 11x14 or larger?. Check prices here (purely for general comparison): https://www.michaels.com/shop/frames

Absolute cheapest they come is $5, and they go up considerably from there.

Art is subjective; it's worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it, but frames have a non-subjective value and it's at least $5 in this case.

Too large more like printer paper sized A1

I get using Michael's as an appraisal source. I'd used a random thrift store. But I'd consider 5$ higher end (thrift stores got expensive after I stopped going)

Oh yeah good Will and thrift stores in general sell you're shit online for full value.

Also I appraised art by how old it looks. Shit looks like it came from 1800s it's at least 150$

Personally it's worthless/negative value. I'd never want it and I'd take money to throw it away in a dumpster somewhere

I don't know about your local estate sale people but it may be 75% off tomorrow. Most ofnours here do $5 boxes by the last few days.

i think its 50% deal but yeah i could haggle. 11th hour on a estate stale ussually means all the good stuff is gone
