sounds good rez... and as you point out AIA dealer oriented policies appear to not cover mysterious disappearance (shoplifting) or flood." which at a Tri-Star show a few years ago (don't know what the vendor had for insurance) but seems a Babe Ruth Bat and Ball that was very secured seemed to disappear during the night. or so they think.

on the collector side, I don't see that exclusion spelt out yet. Replacement Cost coverage. You will be paid the current market retail value of the item at the time of loss.

opps, sorry chris on the response delay.  so many threads, never enough time.

Take a look at this company;  http://www.axa.ca/art-collectibles-insurance

they are a large outfit and use to cover Art and Collectables (but perhaps not the type you might want insured).   They use to have a brochure on the page someplace.  If they don't cover the type you are looking for they are still worth a call as they might know of some independent agents or other larger ones.

I use Collectables Insurance Services as well. I've had items stolen from trades hows, lost in the mail, damaged during shipping.  Items that were in the $1000s and every time, no questions asked, each incident was covered.  I provided all the information required (Police report for stolen items, UPS tracking information, etc.). I absolutely hate most insurance companies but this one is definitely one I'd recommend.

Good to hear, Michael. I've been using Collectibles Insuranec Services for years. Never had a claim, but it is good to hear they are good if I do need to file a claim.
