Warehouse Fire and Children's Book Fundraiser

I just ordered two for my 10-year-old granddaughter in Virginia.

The owners of Enfield Distribution said that they had insurance to cover the loss, per this article: https://www.vnews.com/Canaan-company...-fire-24699593

Assuming that is so, wouldn't their insurance carrier be required to compensate you fully for the loss?

It shouldn't matter whether you were insured, so long as they were insured, correct?

The inventory of each author was not the property of Enfield and we were supposed to carry our own insurance. I didn't pick that up in the small print of my contract so . . . here we are. Live and learn, the hard way sometimes.

Books look great, I just placed an order! (I'm somewhere between 3 and 93, I think!)
