None of my business but my question still stands when your talking that sort of money for a collection.......Do you go under house insurance or have specialist cover?

Yes pal its covered on my contents under rare collectibles

Hi pal - I have the Famicom HVC 001 and a CBS Colecovision and a Vectrex that doesnt work but I dont have a pc engine console. Got an Amstrad GX4000 / Binatone / Vision hire Videomaster / Atari 2600 / 7800 / lynx / VIC 20 / Nintendo NES / SNES / COMM 64 / Spec 48k + 128k / Atari Jaguar / Sega saturn / megadrive / Amiga 500 etc etc etc
Got all the modern stuff as well PS1 / PS2 / Nint 64 / gamecube etc
Funny thing is Im not a gamer - I bought the stuff when i started to notice it climbing in price just for investment purposes.
Ive also got one of each of the original Atari - ET / Asteroid / swordquest cartridges from the landfill site in new mexico where Atari buried their bankrupt stock ( complete with a sample of dirt ) lol

Good stuff although you should have some pc engine / turbographx as well really
Don't know if you've seen it - but the documentary on Netflix about the ET cartridges is worth a watch ( I'm guessing you've seen it though )

I did have a purple 74 but some muther Bananarama! pinched it off the back of my motorhome at the Bug Jam. Came up to the bike rack and cut it off with bolt cutters whilst we were inside ( Me the Mrs and our toddlers )
Apparently 32 bikes were pinched over the weekend that year ( 2013 )
Told the staff at Santa Pod and they basically said tough luck. So if the Manager of Santa Pod ever reads this post.......Go F yourself
