Re: Insurance for your pinball collection

I couldnt find a QLD insurer to touch me with a 40 ft pole cause too many machines etc and the insurers dont like coin op stuff located at a residential property etc.

Having said that, if its only a few machines, and the coin mechs were removed, RACQ was fine to insure them. Most companies will insure any machines under 6 x machines. Any more than that and they re-direct you to a commercial policy, and then the commercial policy people will not insure commercial machines in a residential environment.  Most insurers are more worried about fire loss of everything due to a pinny overheating versus theft cause machines are too big and too hard to steal.

It all depends on how many machines u want to insure.
