I've been wondering about this same problem myself.  I don't think I have
25K in LEGO, but I'd say I have at least 10K.  I doubt that my insurance
would cover more than 2-3K if there were ever a loss.

Please let us know if you find a good suggestion.  Also, assuming you get it
appraised at that much, about how much per year do you think it will raise
your premium?

In insuring my contents at my new place, I described to the agent
how many of the sets/pieces I have can't be replaced just by going
to TRU with $5,000.  Yes it would get me about the same AMOUNT
of LEGO, but to replace the actual sets and pieces would take at least
five times as much - if even be possible at all.  The insurance company
won't put $25,000 value on my collection without an appraisal.
I explained that the most qualified person to appraise my collection
is me, (since I know it's contents the best) followed by my friends
in NALug, but the appraisal must of course be done by someone who
is a neutral third party.  Has anyone found a good way around this?

NALug only - The insurance company says someone on Whyte Ave. does
LEGO appraisals.  Any idea who or what store they could be referring to?
