In a situation where there is a total loss, the insured amount IS the loss, regardless of value. The premium is based on a value WE put on the item, not a third party. If they don't want to PAY that amount, then they shouldn't collect a premium based on that amount.</p><p><br /></p><p>Damage is a different situation, There you simply need to be made whole.
