AUTOMOBILE DIMINISHED VALUE EXPLAINED

November 15, 2009 by betyoudidntknow

Your car was recently involved in a minor parking lot collision when another driver backed into it.

The other driver’s insurance company will gladly pay to have your vehicle repaired and then they hope you’ll go away forever.

What a surprise you’ll get a few years down the road when you go to trade your car in. The car you thought was worth $20K in trade-in value is actually worth only half that much. Why? Because of that minor fender bender that occurred years before.

Even though your automobile may have been properly repaired, the fact that a previous damage entry appears on your CARFAX means that your car is worth much less to the dealers and wholesalers-as much as 50% less!

Automobile diminished value claims can be filed against the insurers of drivers who hit you. The newer your car, the more you have to lose in equity. Be aware-know your rights and options.

WHAT’S IT GOING TO BE, WINE OR WHINE?

October 25, 2009 by betyoudidntknow

Bet you didn’t know that wine-collection insurance covers not only basic losses, such as breakage and theft, but also unsavory situations, such as cork fly–which happens when bottles spontaneously pop their corks because of a change in temperature.

Bet you also didn’t know that the insurance will also pay off if the bottles become worthless because, say, firefighters hose down the wine cellar during a fire and all the labels come off. None of this applies unless you had an appraisal or certified inventory done first, though. Call St. Lucie Appraisal today.

TRUCK AND HEAVY EQUIPMENT APPRAISER

October 18, 2009 by betyoudidntknow

Bet you didn’t know that Henry Wade, as Dallas County District Attorney, was the named defendant in the landmark Roe v. Wade constitutional challenge in 1970.

The case worked its way through the appellate process, culminating in the Supreme Court’s landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade decision which made abortion legal in the United States.

Until that decision, Wade had never lost a case.

Bet you also didn’t know that it’s possible for very small die cast trucks to be worth as much as the big ones.

MY WIFE THE ZOMBIE

October 13, 2009 by betyoudidntknow

Bet you didn’t know that “Zombie” was originally the name of a snake god in the voodoo cult of West Africa, and later of the Caribbean.  It comes from a West African language called Kongo, and is related to the words ”nzambi” (god) and “zumbi” (fetish).  It was later applied to a reanimated corpse in voodoo.

 Speaking of reanimated corpses, here’s my wife after two bottles of wine last night.

Bet you also didn’t know that people who don’t have their collectibles appraised and properly insured generally feel pretty stupid after their valuables  are destroyed or disappear.

WELL THIS AIN’T ENGLAND

October 4, 2009 by betyoudidntknow

Bet you didn’t know that In England, the Speaker of the House is not allowed to speak.

Attempting to institute a similar policy with your wife would be inadvisable.

THE BEST MAN

October 3, 2009 by betyoudidntknow

Bet you didn’t know that, dating back hundreds of years ago in Scotland, the best man was more like a partner in crime.  When a man wanted to take a wife he simply took her. 

Since this amounted to kidnapping and the young lady’s family could be expected to object, the groom need courage and manpower.  He selected the best and bravest friends to accompany him, and the best among them became known as the “best man” at the wedding.

Bet you also didn’t know about St. Lucie Appraisal’s expertise in evaluating sports memorabilia.  If you have a large collection you want to protect, count on us for an accurate appraisal of what it’s worth.

DIMINISHED VALUE

October 1, 2009 by betyoudidntknow

As with blush, too much eye color in the wrong place can end up detracting from your appearance rather than enhancing your looks. Stiff, clumpy lashes are less than alluring.  So don’t use more than two or three coats of mascara. Using too much eyeliner or not applying it neatly looks hard or- worse – tacky. Using mascara on your lower lashes and lining your lower lids can accentuate bags, dark circles, lines and puffiness. Slapdash shadow, wandering liner, mascara that speckles your cheeks…yuck. Perfectly applied and blended makeup is the mark of a woman who’s really pulled together.

The paint department at Home Depot is NOT, however, a good place to shop for makeup.
