Why do I need collectible insurance if I have home fire insurance to cover?
You may have all these collectibles that are precious to your and your children but these do not come into normal protection coverage of a home or office fire insurance. You need to explicitly highlight to the insurance companies that these items are more valuable than what they may assign a value to.
Take good care of your collectibles. Check out for a proper collectible insurance.
