Antique Seller Reviews — What Our Clients Say About Busby Antiques in Central Florida
Over the years I followed his career, transacted with him and even learned a few things.
I’m no longer in that business and his knowledge now far exceeds mine but the important thing is that I was always found him to be scrupulously honest. I would not hesitate to work with him as a buyer or seller if the occasion arose.
His son Tyler also deals with vintage instruments too, so I recently brought one in they are helpjng me with.
Very honest and knowlegeable, highly recommend!
Chad was able to evaluate our inherited home contents and let us know what was valuable and what was not. There is a large amount of misinformation on the Internet when it comes to antiques. Chad has access to professional industry recognized sites and was very knowledgeable in all aspects of antique values. He also deals in both gold and silver jewelry and may be willing to purchase these from you directly at current market prices if you are interested in that as well.
This is a highly reputable and honest company and he provided a great service for our family. I give this company 5 stars - highly recommended
