Depreciation Value
      06/27/08 08:00 PM

As some of you know, I've been fretting over shipping my lx200 from the west coast to here in Ontario. I thought I'd got myself to the point where I'd have to crate it very well and take my chances since not even my home insurance was willing to cover it in transit. However, as I contacted ups and asked for an updated shipping rate, they informed me I could get 100% loss & damage coverage if they could pack it. As you might guess, I'm interested.
Now here's the catch...."It is 100% coverage, no questions asked once there has been proof of damage, say from a photo. You would also have to prove the actual value of the equipment if it is used. Original invoice with a scale for depreciation (reaonable scale)." I believe I can get the original invoice (purchased in 2003), but what would be a 'reasonable' scale for depreciation? Any ideas? Thanks!
