What does this mean?

Thank you for submitting your items for appraisal. These appear to be late 19th / early 20th century french or belgian machine woven wall tapestries, inspired by 17th /18th century dutch paintings. These wall hangings were mass produced for home decor after 1870. Unfortunately the fabric does not age well and fades, which can be seen on the tapestries in your possession. Similar by JP Panneaux Paris in excellent condition can be bought for a few hundred dollars. Tapestries in poor condition are extremely difficult to sell. I just hope you didn´t pay too much. The estimate is based on similar offered at auction.
