Insurance recommendation?
I'm guessing this has come up before but I'm in need of a recommendation for a cost-effective insurance provider for my model collection. I'm needing to switch my homeowner's policy and none of my new options will offer anything more than $50,000 worth of additional insurance coverage...which doesn't come near covering a (heaven forbid) complete loss.
Are there agencies that offer a rider just for collections like ours?
Thanks,
Randy

They are the best when it comes to our model cars.
I use Collectible Insurance in Towson MD for my little cars.

I found that Hagerty Collectible Car insurance has a provision that they will insure "automobilia" which would include models, auto parts, tools, etc. as part of their collectible car insurance coverage. The limit on automobilia as I understand it, is the same as the total stated value of your collectible cars insured with them. So if you also have a collection of 1:1 cars this might be an option.
