See this is where i think they missed the ball.... value of a card for insurance reasons is totally independent of the service they should provide. The quality and attention needed for an older card isn't necessarily any greater than newer cards (think of how hard it is now a days to seperate a Gem Mint 10 from even an 8). Part of the reason i don't collect modern cards. A card goes in ...it in essence should come out with the same grade every single time. Paying for turn around is another issue...regardless of the value of the card to get the service in a reduced amount of time is something that should cost more! As a person who has to carry lloyd's of london insurance i am very familiar with all of these damage issue and needless to say...other than the idea that the less time i have it in my possession the less a chance of something going wrong, i'm not worried about damage.
