Was looking to sell a couple of pieces. Went to their website and sent an email for a quote. No response. I called the office. They gave me a number to text photos and I did so. No response. I sent a follow up text the next day. No response. I waited two additional days and still no response.I can understand if you’re not interested in buying, but at least have the courtesy of giving me a reply. To ignore me like this is completely unprofessional. I don’t see how they can offer same day evaluations when I can’t even get a callback.Edit: Adam called me after the review and we were able to work something out. Thanks for getting back to me.

I had an excellent experience with Marion from Syl-Lee Antiques. She came to my home to appraise some antique jewelry and she was a pleasure to work with. I sold her several pieces of jewelry and one of the pieces that I sold to her I had given to her in error; it was something that I actually did not want to sell because it had very strong sentimental value. After she left my home I called to tell her that I needed that piece of jewelry returned. She did not hesitate for one second and she drove all the way back to my apartment to return my necklace. She was extremely reliable and pleasant to deal with and I would highly recommend Syl- Lee Antiques. I will definitely be doing business again with them in the future. Thank you Marion!

Adam is absolute first rate and we couldn’t endorse him any higher. Firstly he’s very professional. Easy to reach, explains his services, the process and what to expect. We used him to help us close out my mom’s estate. She had art, jewelry, furniture and other valuable assets. Adam came over and did a complete evaluation and couldn’t have been any more patient in explaining the evaluation of every item. Firstly he’s amazingly knowledgeable and knows so much about art, jewelry and furniture. Very impressive. We would show him a painting that we thought was obscure and he would immediately know the artist and auction price range. And when he didn’t know, he was truthful and said he had to do so some research. But even better, he was honest enough to recommend other specialists who would get us a better deal - even cutting him out of making a commission. If a piece of art had value he would explain which galleries were best for an auction and recent comps so we knew what to expect. He made phone calls and went out of his way to insure we maximized our sales. Adam’s specialty seems to be jewelry. Very knowledgeable, experienced and knows the industry and what things are really worth. Really strong in gold and diamonds. During such a stressful time as selling your moms estate, he was just wonderful. We couldn’t endorse Adam any higher. The real deal!!

Adam Zimmerman from Syl-Lee Antiques was at my home several times. He is a very friendly and genuine person who helped my husband and me when we were selling some of our possessions. He guided us through the process and gave us a fair price. He explained what each item was worth and was very honest and open. I would recommend him highly and would not hesitate to call him again.Hanna C

ADAM ZIMMERMAN FROM SYL LEE ANTIQUES WAS AMAZING WHEN OUR LOVED ONE DIED AND LEFT US ALL HER JEWELRY, GOLD, SILVER, DIAMONDS, SILVER WARE AND OTHER VERY OLD SPECIAL ANTIQUES THAT HAVE BEEN IN THE FAMILY FOR YEARS. I CALLED SEVERAL PLACES IN THE CITY AND LONG ISLAND AND ADAM ZIMMERMAN RETURNED MY CALLS IMMEDIATELY, ANSWERED ALL MY QUESTIONS AND PAID MUCH HIGHER PRICERS FOR THE ABOVE ITEMS THAN EVERY OTHER JEWELER AND ESTATE BUYER I CALLED. HE GRACIOUSLY AND KINDLY WENT OUT OF HIS WAY TO GIVE ME FREE APPRAISALS ON ITEMS I WANTED TO KEEP. HE DID NOT PRESSURE ME EVER. SOFT SPOKEN, HONEST AND PERSONABLE. I DID NOT BELIEVE THESE TYPE OF HONEST PEOPLE EXISTED IN THE WORLD TODAY. And the prices he offered shocked me. There is not an honest dealer out there but his store. Thank you Adam and Syl-Lee for your quick response, driving to my home and offering and paying more than any other dealer. Hope to do business with you in the future., Sincerely Jill Tilghman.

Adam was fantastic. He was prompt, professional and exceedingly considerate. He wanted to make sure that our children didn’t want some of the pieces. Nothing that he said differed from other antique dealers’ views and his prices were excellent. I would highly recommend him.

Adam and Glen were fantastic. As soon as I left a message Adam contacted me right away. We made a date to meet at my uncle's apartment. They were on time and confirmed the time the day before. They arrive at the apartment and took their time looking through the antiques, paintings and collectibles. They were knowledgeable and fair with pricing. During this very sad time they were kind and considerate. I would very highly recommend his company

If you're about to liquidate your estate or the estate of someone you love, there is no better estate buyer in the New York City or Long Island area than Syl-Lee Antiques. Adam and his team are efficient, thorough, and extraordinarily professional -- they go out of their way to make each and every one of their clients feel like humans, and it makes a stressful situation all the easier. Also, he really tries to figure out what is best for you, the client. So he offers options about what you can do with heirlooms, and that choice is much appreciated. Highly, highly recommended!

Adam was super helpful and kind with helping me get some items sold. Drove up to my apartment and paid more than originally quoted after seeing the items. Would recommend to anyone.
