Hal LewisI would contact someone vert trustworthy like Barry Sloate who is not truly a "dealer" that would be interested in sniping the item from you.
Barry is not out buying items for his own collection, so he could be trusted to give you a real opinion about the value of the item based on his abundant knowledge of the hobby.
But you are wise to only trust ONE person like him and not a lot of other folks.
