In the UK, the system is different. I select the value of a item. The
insurance company quotes a premium on this basis. If the insured item is
lost, then is time to get the valuation from the insurance company. This
means two things:
1. If I over value the item, I pay an extra insurance premium for nothing.
2. If I undervalue the item, I'm not fully covered.
If I'm unhappy with their valuation, I can dispute it.
The key to the system is to have photograph of valuables.
