Insurance advice..., by kingkambo on Dec 13, 2007 10:56:58 GMT 1, Morning forum members, Whats the best way to go about insuring my collection- its not worth mega bucks, I'd say between ยฃ2000-3000. Shall I try and included it in my household and does anyone know, if they will replace rather the reimburse? Apologies if this is already on here but i couldnt find it!
Thank you please.

It shouldn't matter too much though as the value isn't that high. There is a thread on here somewhere.

As long as you have evidence that you have them all then that is fine. I have scanned all my prov and have it on email, so if house burns down and i loose all art and provenance, then at least i have something to back it up with.
