Anyone manage to insure their vinyl for other than depreciated value?
As mentioned previously here, I did spend most of Easter (and a few days besides) loading our vinyl collection into Discogs during the Level 4 lockdown.
Once you get going, you can work out a few shortcuts and the “quickest” unique identifier... sometimes it’s a barcode, sometimes it’s the catalogue number. Hardly ever needed to type in the actual artist & title.
Most amusing finds were, aside from some of pithy dead-wax prose, posters / stickers / other media inside the sleeves of albums that I’d never seen before... but went looking for them because they were called out as being part of a particular release.
Haven’t even considered cataloguing our CDs...
I still need to get around to specifying them as part of our house contents insurance policy. Have others here done that?
This video mimics my own experience, where I can not convince any insurer to use Discogs value as a base/starting point.
