An excellent valuer who clearly knew his profession and was extremely helpful with good advice. We shall be returning shortly to value some further items I have no reservations in reccomending this valuer

At a difficult time it was refreshingly helpful to have Mr. Inkpen prepare a valuation report on items of jewellery for probate for my Aunt's estate. Professional in a calm reassuring way and presented in the perfect format for HMRC. My thanks to him for his help. It was very much appreciated.

Michael Inkpen did an excellent job valuing our items and ensured the entire process went as smoothly as possible.

Booking via the website is easy and quick, with helpful clear pricing and automated reminders shortly before the appointment. When we first brought the items to Mr Inkpen, he explained they needed to be repaired and took time to explain why it was important to do this first. He also answered all our questions, and we never felt rushed. He provided us with relevant information to decide about the repairs, and, later, we returned for the valuation.

He is clearly very experienced and knowledgeable, and he was very kind. He did a thorough job, and we're pleased with his detailed report. I would highly recommend him.

It was a pleasure to meet Michael and I also learned some interesting facts about diamonds during the appraisal. We found the office easy to find and great that there is onsite customer parking. I’m now looking forward to receiving my valuations in due course. Michael offers a well organised and efficient service that I feel would be hard to beat. Thanks Michael!

I was willing to travel from East Devon to Plympton for my third valuation with Mr Inkpen - not only is he helpful, accommodating and supportive but his reports meet the exacting requirements of my insurance plus covering the setting and claws clause. Worth the journey, thank you.

Michael Inkpen offered an exceptional, professional appraisal service today with integrity, honesty and generosity with his time.
I had an outstanding customer experience, and will certainly rebook again in the future.
With many thanks.

Michael was excellent. Very welcoming and friendly, providing an excellent appraisal of my sapphire ring. Would not hesitate to recommend. Thank you.

My first experience with Michael, what a positive one it was! Even though my item wasn’t what I had hoped, Michael was kind and gave me more information. He told me every step of the way what he was doing and looking for. I highly recommend him.

As always, Michael demonstrated his enduring patience when trying to assist a complete technophobe! Willing to help, professional and always goes above and beyond, even when trying to navigate issues that are not necessarily part of his remit, but need resolving to enable him to complete the intended task at hand.

Michael provided a valuation on our engagement ring. Booking an appointment was straight forward and no nonsense, clearly stated on his website which service was best suited for us and how much this would be, with an appointment readily available.
In the appointment itself, Michael was clearly very knowledgeable and knew in detail the dates and history of the ring. The information Michael knew was precise, and it’s clear he truly is an expert in his field. Throughout the appointment Michael explained different elements to the ring, its history, what makes it unique, where the value lies, what we can expect with it in years to come, as well as showing us how the diamond appears under different lights and lamps, and how the light reflects. We felt involved in the process and were so grateful that Michael was engaging and made us part of it, allowing us a peek behind the curtain as such. We left feeling confident in Michael’s knowledge, and were quick to receive our PDF report which is thorough and has all the information we needed for insurance purposes.
We wouldn’t go to anyone else in future, Michael was just brilliant and we’d recommend to everyone.
