But any single item over a certain value must be declared on a separate rider. My camera is already insured. But at this point its replacement cost is half the new price. And I have two lenses that need to be put on the rider due to "Leica inflation." All are discontinued models, so I can't just go to B&H for a price. Having dutifully checked recent classifieds and the auction site's completed listings and gotten a reasonable average for the items in question, I talked to an agent. She said that they would prefer a listing in some kind of "trade publication," but in lieu of that, an e$Bay listing might do. Is there somewhere I can go to get a value they will accept, kind of like the "blue book" for cars. How have you folks documented your stuff's value for insurance? Thanks! --Peter
