long time lurker UPSF Lieutenant Registered: 04/27/08 Posts: 290 Loc: through the looking glass	Because I have my policy with the same people as my car and truck I only pay $15 a month. I figured that 30 minutes worth of paycheck is worth covering my DVDs. _________________________ I've never heard of anything good from Missouri coming west and treadin' lightly is not my way.

long time lurker UPSF Lieutenant Registered: 04/27/08 Posts: 290 Loc: through the looking glass	I have to send in an updated list every 6 months when I pay my policy. They said that anything that I add as long as it is recorded will be covered between the official updates. It jumped from $10 to $15 a wile back but I couldn't tell you at what point that was. But it was because of the size. If you want to see my collection you can see part of it in the DVD collection thread. That is about 80% of it. In a couple weeks I am going down to my sisters and I plan to rescue as much as I can from her. And WHAT IS THAT AVATAR?!?!?! I am just sitting here and completely distracted by it. _________________________ I've never heard of anything good from Missouri coming west and treadin' lightly is not my way. I'm from Kansas.

Tom Kinnen UPSF Ensign Registered: 04/24/08 Posts: 6	Originally Posted By: Tsunami3k I've got a decent sized collection and I've look at various methods of tracking beyond the basics I currently use. Check out the Tracking Your Collection thread for some very simple but powerful software packages for doing this. I've also looked into USB barcode scanners and decent ones can be had for $50. Combined cost of software and scanner puts you right around $75 for a setup that will shrink a weekend long project into an hour or so. I wound up getting a DVDProfiler and a barcode scanner and did 1.4K Titles in about 6 hours with only 10-20 needing research on SRP. I wund up paying retail for the scanner at staples since it was late at night but it was well worth it after doing about 1/2 of a shelf manually.

I have always been looking for a good quality program to track my collection but I didn't know what they were called. But when I did a Google on DVDProfiler the first hit is an AWESOME program. Now, I just need to get a barcode reader to fill out the info. Considering the size of my room mates CD collection now I wonder if there is something similar to it he could use. _________________________ I've never heard of anything good from Missouri coming west and treadin' lightly is not my way.

otakuden UPSF Commander Registered: 05/01/08 Posts: 963 Loc: somewhere south of normal	Originally Posted By: Alpha_Zeon Insurance, hmm I've always wondered about that. I do have alot of moneys worth of anime dvds. I'll definetly have to look that up in the near future. This past month I've had tornados flying past where I live and now that I''ve read this I believe I should look into it. How much are you guys paying for insurance on your collections, and also the figures and collectibles. when i was with SF i had $150,000 insured coverage with a $500 deductible. i only paid around $30 a month for it. a deal, imo. with liberty mutual, i have $100,000 all-encompasing and am in the process of setting up a separate policy of $50,000 for my collectibles & breakables _________________________ Otakuden's Oasis Otakuden's Anime Reviews Otakuden's Dram o Beer & Spirits
