A few cards stolen- couple questions

[smtjoy]

Sorry for your loss Rhys, good luck getting it back.

It happened on the outskirts of the woodlands.

I talked to the insurance adjuster today and he was nice and I emailed him a list of what was stolen and he said he would get back to me next week. I was lucky in that everything was purchased off ebay in the last two weeks so knowing current value is pretty cut and dry.

Well, since some others are telling their stories, I was at a concert in CT here a few years back w a friend. We left my car at the commuter lot. In hindsight, not smart, it wasnt the most accesible one. Anyways, after having a blast at the show, we returned and found my car broken into. I had sports stuff in car under a blanket and all of it was stolen, plus CD's, stuff thrown on ground, etc. It effectively ended my small time part time dealer on the weekends schedule. Traumatic and horrible indeed. No insurance, and nothing was ever recovered.


On topic tho, Scott, I hope u get your stuff back, or at least decent insurance. What hurts too is if Christmas gifts for family were stolen. Thats really hard.

I Just wanted to give an update on this.

Well I just recieved my claims check from CIS for the full amount ($729) that was stolen. Total time taken to receive from filing was 70 days. Very happy with the service and time to payment. If I had any doubt about the value of collectibles insurance I no longer do, well worth the cost and I will be increasing my policy coverage.

On the other front still no luck finding any of the cards/tickets (

Thanks for the update Scott. At least you got the money back - too bad on the cards.

i'm glad that you got your money back ok and that the service was good.
i insure my cards with the same company.
i'm sorry that your cards weren't found,though.

best,

Hey Scott
That is great news about recouping your money, if not your cards. One quick question, if you don't mind? Who is your insurance with, Collectibles Insurance Agency or.....?

[smtjoy]

Sure Leon, my insurance is with Collectibles Insurance Agency, the claims check was made out from a Collectibles Insurance Services (CIS).

Sorry to hear about your loss.

Hope you the cards back soon.

Have the police fingerprinted the area where the cards
were? With a little bit of luck they can identify the
thieves.

It would not be bad if they were caught, and they got
in the wrong line of fire, or if you decided to use
their heads as a batting practice.

Here is hoping.....

Hey Scott-thanks for updating us.It's nice to know that CIA took care of you.I also have been thinking about insurance,and it's good to hear of positive first-hand experience.

As was stated in earlier posts,did you ever follow up with the surrounding area card shops?It's more than likely this/these dirtbags have no idea of the value of the cards,and would end up bringing them into some card store or pawn shop-and take whatever was offered out of sheer stupidity.

I'm sorry for your loss on the cards,but glad you got your $$ back (or at least most of it).

Sincerely,Clayton

Sorry to hear about the cards Scott but glad CIA took care of the claims. I have my cards insured with them as well..and I have heard nothing but good things from them so I'm glad it worked out for you...now here's hoping you can get those items back!

Just wanted to post a quick update.

I just recieved my new policy and my premium did not go up other than for me increasing my coverage value.
