Think your collection is covered by your homeowners’ policy? Think again. Collectibles Insurance Services, LLC (www.collectinsure.com) announced a partnership with Metropolis Collectibles (www.metropoliscomics.com) to offer insurance specially designed for collectors to Met
News-Antique.com - Jan 18,2008 - Hunt Valley, MD, January 18, 2008 - - Collectibles Insurance Services, LLC (www.collectinsure.com) announced a partnership with Metropolis Collectibles (www.metropoliscomics.com) to offer insurance specially designed for collectors to Metropolis’ customers.
The partnership idea was sparked when one of Metropolis’ customers suffered a loss and found their homeowners insurance did not adequately cover their comics collection. “Most collectors think they are covered by their homeowners insurance,” says Annemarie Fitzpatrick, Collectibles Insurance Services Sales Director, “however in most cases, homeowners’ is designed to cover personal property and is not nearly enough to protect your collection.”
As well as providing information about collectibles insurance to customers through banner ads on their website and eNewsletter, Metropolis Collectibles will provide the valuable information after customers have purchased an item for their collection. "Very often our customers ask Metropolis for advice on how and where they should insure they're collections. Every collector should be asking that question, and I'm very happy to say that our website now points them in the right direction to this very reputable company," stated Ben Smith, Metropolis' VP.
Upon clicking a banner ad or opting into the “get an insurance quote” option in their shopping cart, customers go directly to Collectibles Insurance Services website to get an instant estimate for their collection.
