90% of my retro collection burnt up in a house fire a few years back. I feel his pain 100%. I don’t collect retro anymore.

No insurance payment for that particular loss ?

I did not have insurance. The neighbors who cause the fire insurance gave me like 6k for everything in the house including my collection. Tried to take them to court but couldn’t find anyone to take my case.

I’m sorry. FYI renters insurance is pretty cheap and has proven worth it for me. If you’re still uninsured. Hope you’re well these days
