If your asking me if I am going to get a general value for a particular comic using various sources off of the internet, including the selling prices you see on eBay, as opposed to spending a thousand dollars to have someone come to my house and appraise all of my comics....well, yep I am going the internet route each and every time. It certainly worked just fine for me the last time I had a major loss. Don't get me wrong, if you want to spend a crapload of money to bring in an appraiser so you can get a value that is pretty much going to fall right in line with the pricing you see online then by all means have at it. I don't like wasting money if I don't have to and bringing in an appraiser to appraise my comics is definitely a waste of money in my book, especially when the insurance company isn'y demanding that I do it. 

Good point.

Then the agents you talked to have no clue what thier talking about or your using a really lousy insurance company. To make people appraise items that any 10 year old could find the value on just using the internet makes absolutely no sense at all. In all my years working in the field, I never once saw an insurance company make people have things like comics appraised and I haven't had to have a single comic that I own appraised either and my insurance company has a complete list of every comic I own. My advice, get a better insurance company or ask for a different rep next time you call. 

Now if you owned an Action Comics #1, a Wonder Woman #1, or any other comic that had a value of $200,000+...well, that would b a different matter entirely as the difference of just a few grades can be as much as $50,000+

Wait are you series? You use the internet to tell you how much a comic is worth vs a person who's specialty is to appraise art? 

Damn, comic book tv shows are coming out of the woodwork every few months if not every year.

This insurance thing on comics is scary.

That is why I prefer my comics to stay in a plastic holder like the ones cgc uses and sells. Also I see people on e Bay selling hundreds of boxes full of comics and it makes sad how they don't or can't take care of something so delicate and fragile.

This thread is both enlightening and disheartening 

And terrifying if something goes wrong with a person's collectibles.

The best advice for the question asked that I can offer is to ask for a complete copy of their insurance policy, including any Riders and Umbrella policies, and then ask for a certificate of coverage in your name (ATIMA), and then call the insurance company(ies) to verify active coverage. Then take those policies to your insurance agent for review.

I commented about the wrong comic but thank you.

Erased.

So far I've only purchased one comic but I'm looking to sell in the future. If we have done business before please feel free to give me a shout out and I'll do the same for you. Thanks!
