Spotlight on Time and Again Galleries

Collectibles

Time and Again Galleries can help you buy and sell everything from paintings and rugs to costume jewelry and more. They have the expertise to determine the value of a variety of goods, both modern and antique.

Jeff Zimmerman, the CEO, has seen the business expand from the New York Tri-State area to the international stage. When asked what makes him stand out from other buyers and sellers, Jeff said “My honesty, my integrity and my knowledge. I developed a following of people who trust what I say and what I do which I found to be a good business model.”

If you are in the market to buy something specific, he will do his very best to find it. Likewise, if you are looking to sell something but aren’t sure of its worth, Jeff is an experienced appraiser who is readily available to assess the value of your items. You can make an appointment or even email images of your items. “The cost for a verbal appraisal is $100 and if they decide to sell through us or to us that money is refundable,” said Jeff.

For appraisals of large quantities or high-value items, he will travel across the country. And his buyers come from not only the U.S., but all over the world. Time and Again Galleries once auctioned a pair of Chinese vases that turned out to be much older and more valuable than originally thought. They ended up selling for $160,000. The buyers, from Shanghai, traveled to the U.S. to pick them up personally. Jeff can also ship merchandise wherever it needs to go.

Many of the items he buys and sells come from family estates, attics, storage facilities and garage sales, to name just a few. “People need to know what it is they’re selling. They need to be careful what they sell and do research before they sell something,” said Jeff.

Besides dealing with single items, Time and Again Galleries offers complete and partial buyouts and cleanouts of estates. They offer top dollar for your property and are proud of the service they provide.

Jeff mentioned that the business has changed dramatically over the years. Antiques are much less desirable and more modern items are in. “Younger people are much more interested in simple and modern furniture,” he said.

He also stated that collectibles, such as Hummel’s, Royal Doulton, Roseville pottery, carnival glass and other similar items have greatly depreciated in value. Traditional French furniture that once used to be so popular has been greatly devalued as well.

Besides the items already mentioned, Jeff also buys and sells gold and silver, fine porcelain, decorative arts, bronzes, antiques and other high quality items. Auctions are held every year at different locations.

Time and Again Galleries is recognized by the Certified Appraiser Guild of America and Jeff is a certified appraiser and a member of the New Jersey State Society of Auctioneers (NJSSA.) If you have something to buy or sell, Jeff Zimmerman is confident that he can provide the best service and most accurate appraisals to ensure that you get your money’s worth.
