It is vitally important you keep your jewellery items up to date with the current prices. Most insurance companies recommend you update your valuation every 3-5 years. It is worth asking your insurance company how often they wish to see the updated prices and what is the entry level price for declaring specific items.
Probate Valuations are sometimes overwhelming and time consuming, we make the process as easy as possible by working with you or the solicitor directly.
Andrew Statton SNR has over 40 years experience in the jewellery trade and has completed thousands of Insurance and Probate Valuations. His extensive knowledge gives you peace of mind that the price quoted is accurate and fair. Joined by his son Andrew Statton DGA and Paul Springett, they are well equipped to undertake any jewellery, watch, coin or silverware valuation.
For Insurance Valuations we charge 2% + VAT of the total value of the items. This covers the full written descriptions, photos of all the items and a polish and clean.
For Probate Valuations we charge 5% + VAT of the total value of the items. This is slightly more than the Insurance Valuation as the prices are lower.
You can pop into either store when you are ready. We aim to get the valuation completed within the week, but this may vary from time to time as we get very busy with valuations. You are more than welcome to call us before to get an idea of turn around time.
