ABSOLUTELY UNTRUE
The IRS requires INDEPENDENT appraisals.
CHM does not, and CANNOT BY LAW, appraise donations it receives, and if asked will never
offer a guess as to any computing
artifact's value.
Sellam has a track record with them, and he has told me that they have never been
questioned by the IRS on an appraisal
that he has made.
