Their quotes seem reasonable, but has anyone had any experiences with making a claim?

Matt that's what I would like to know. I need to get this done.

Do folks here have recommendations for insurance companies to insure collectibles? Or, do people use riders to their homeowners insurance policies?

I tried using my insurance company as a rider but they wanted me to have an appraiser come in and determine the value on each piece first. Let's see with over 300 various pieces I shudder at what that would cost me.

Here's a past thread from a few years ago about a stolen cad and claim made.

I have thought about insurance more than once but in the end have decided if I ever have a theft or fire, I will just move on (and maybe end my addiction).

I can just imagine the conversation with an adjuster re: my Mays gamer....

Them: "it's a what? Oh, a bat. And it's cracked? And you say it's worth how much???"

Coverage is surprisingly inexpensive, to the point of being a no-brainer, and does provide some peace of mind.

And with a company that specializes in this type of thing, your cracked bat scenario will not come to be realized.
