Insurance for gaming equipments?

[mrpaulrich]

Hey i'm in the process of starting a game shop...ofcousre the security of my equipments (i.e consoles/tv/computers) is always at the forefront of my mind and while i'm putting in all the steps to protect against theft everyone knows there's no stopping a determined thief or better yet, a natural disaster/fire..
My question is, is there any insurance company in JA that will insure such equipments, if so, who? what will it take to get this? and about how much would it cost?

[mrpaulrich]

i'm still checking...anyyyone???

You'll have to contact an insurance broker or insurance company directly for quotes and eligibility.

It should be quite possible the persons I associate with insure their camera and related camera equipment. Not too sure where or the cost you would have to do the ground work on that.

ok thanx anyways...will post my results here as soon as i get some concrete stuff

Well i found out today that with only 4-5 32" flat panel tv and and 5 gaming console, that's not just not enough to attract coverage. In order for the insurance companies to even consider it u may need to add, as many staff as possible, liability insurance, other computer equipment. Well overall if u protecting equipments under 500,000 it's not very attractive to the insurance companies...to me that is some real BS

You must be checking the wrong places because some people insure just there camera and basic camera gear which may run them around $100,000 so thats rather inaccurate I'll ask my people where they insure their cameras.
