Does anyone offer insurance policies like this? I realize that just about anything can be insured, but I suspect finding someone to cover this risk would be difficult and/or incredibly expensive.

And if you were really that worried about losing your shirt, then why wouldn’t you just put a reserve on the listing, which I’m pretty sure is free?
