Insurance, by ala399 on Jun 26, 2007 19:12:06 GMT 1, Hi
Can anyone recommend the way to go about insuring prints? How do you get them valued? And with the prices going up on a weekly basis, how do you agree on the current value?
Any help appreciated

Insurance, by Dellboyy on Jun 26, 2007 21:12:31 GMT 1, My prints are included on my contents insurance. It already covers any single item up to £1500, any items above that, you specify by name as a high risk item.
Of course all insurer's have different limits, so you'll have to check your overall contents limit, your high risk limit (art usually classed as high risk, which often as a different limit), and your single item top value!

Insurance, by Michael Jacob on Jun 27, 2007 1:30:53 GMT 1, YOu can buy a separate policy specifically for art. I have my whole art collection separate from my house. Its very affordable and paid on a yearly basis. In in the State and it is through State Farm, which is one of the largest in the country. I have over $100,000 USD coverage for about $600 a year. That covers everything, even damage. When I say damage, it even covers my three young kids if they do something to it. I had a local antique/estate appraiser give me written appraisals. You can supply them auction records (from ebay to sothebys and everything in between). They will take the highest amount and usually ad another %25 knowing what you have is very hard to replace. It is YOUR responsibility to contact the insurance company if the values exceed the policy amount before your one year is up. Hope this helps.
