Hi everyone,
I''ve heard conflicting things about insurance company payouts and appraisals, and was hoping for clarification.
It seems for the most part, my friend''s stones get appraised at about 2-2.5x the paid price. And insurance premiums are based upon these appraisals.
How do insurance payouts in case of theft etc. work. I was told that the insurance company won''t refund the appraised amount, but instead the fair market value. If this is so, what''s the point of having an appraisal that is so high, which in turn increases premiums on a price you''ll never have returned.
If I''m off here, please let me know.
Much appreciated.
