Our valuations are carried out by Karra Ellison of Crystal Clear Valuations Ltd. They are are carried out on site on our premises in Chichester. Karra visits our premises once a month to take photographs and details from the pieces of jewellery you leave with us to be valued. Please bring with you to your appointment, any and all prior receipts, paperwork and valuations for your items. The valuation documents will follow 3 to 4 weeks after the jewellery has been appraised.
All valuations charges must be paid in full before you collect your items.
In order to book your valuation we take a non-refundable deposit of £70.00. This charge is then deducted from your final balance.
Please contact us on 01243 538 313 or enquiries@timothyroe.com for further information about our upcoming valuation appointments.
To keep things unbiased and fair, we charge on a ‘per item’ basis. All valuations are bound in a black leather grain folder and include a Letter of Transmittal, the Document containing colour digital images, Notes to the Schedule, Diamond Grading Explained and the Career History of our Registered Valuer, Karra.

Document Fee £70.00
This covers the creation of your document, including presentation, printing and image editing. Charged once per valuation.
Standard Jewellery and Watches, per item £60.00
Premium Watches, per item £75.00
For example, Rolex, Patek Philippe and Audemars Piguet.
Diamonds over 1 Carat (Single Stones), non GIA Report £75.00 (per carat)
For example, a 1.50 Carat Diamond would be £75 x 1.5 = £112.50
Grouped Listings for Nominal Items £90.00
Those that are of lower value, thus do not justify a fully detailed appraisal. An example would be a group of 9 Carat Gold plain earrings,
or group of neck chains. Plain gold simple items can also be included in this group, even when the value is high. (e.g. 18ct gold neck chains).
Maximum of five items per grouping.
Exceptional Items From £75.00
Those that require further time to assess or research to establish a value. For example very fine vintage/antique pieces
(such as Liberty & Cartier), pieces which have a large number of different sized stones to measure/test or some modern branded
goods that require thorough research.
To determine an estimate, please email or message an image of the piece along with some details to enquiries@timothyroe.com
Priority Completion £60.00
If the valuation report is required within seven days of the appointment, this fee will be applied.
Probate
Due to many low value items that can be involved in a probate valuation, many items can be grouped, and group sizes are increased From £65.00 (single item)
to reflect the lower values. Prices start from £65.00 for a single item and £80.00 for a group. £80.00 (group)
However, please contact us for a definite quote.
