Antiques are expensive, and buying a real antique grandfather clock should not be taken lightly. When buying an antique grandfather clock consider this:
1) Does the owner offer any guarantee of authenticity?
2) How much does the clock cost? Be sure to include shipping, tax, customs, etc.
3) What is the condition? A grandfather clock in perfect condition is of course more valuable than one that is not well maintained. A 100% original timepiece in great condition is worth much more than a restored item.
4) What are you intending to do with it? If you are going to sell the time piece, you need to find it at the lowest possible price in order to make a profit. On the other hand, if you are buying the clock for your own home or office or as a gift, the price can be higher.
5) What is the market value. Knowledge of recent sales of similar items is very helpful in deciding how much you are willing to pay. If necessary, an unbiased appraisal should be conducted first.
Reproductions are available for those desiring the antique look without the hefty price tag. They can be found in the link above.
