You know what -- phone a Blackberry.
And of course all -- -- tech items here that word is -- is basically here to show you guys at home.
Should you insure these things and it's it's -- it's an important question especially with nowadays when some of these phones -- you know 787 or 800 dollars to replace.

Talk about protecting your Smartphones tablets and computers Stephen thanks for joining us.
Thank you out and it's a pleasure to -- there.
Well we know they're tablets Smartphones -- where the most purchased items over the holidays in fact I can give you an example on my own.
This is my fox iPhone -- to upgrade from an iPhone for -- to the iPhone 5 so I'd had the upgrade available like paid for the -- the -- 99 to upgrade the phone.
But it never got here it actually got lost to be a UPS or stolen have you want to look at it.
It took five weeks to get it but to actually get money back but the money still to replace the size phone that I wanted.
So actually got a less a lesser unit I didn't have any insurance on it but adults and and getting a lesser -- -- when I originally paid for it cost an extra fifty bucks so.
It there there are problems out there in what can you guys do what -- people at home do.
Perhaps a -- -- -- small things today are intrinsic part of our lives.
The sort of been without all smoke burns is.
On convent schools and many of us and being disconnected from -- world from all well from our social world isn't isn't in he has a big impact on our lives.
And as you -- -- is said.
That's -- also are very expensive these days you know there may be a subsidized rate when you first get offend but to replace the -- -- -- -- also damaged.
It's gonna question in excess of 600 dollars.
And we all know that these items -- with his every single day and that their -- -- if we -- -- we spilled liquids on them they get damage to a lot of people don't realize is.
They also get.
Stolen.
And we lose Malone has startling statistic is -- a 113.
Small financial loss was stolen.
Every minute in the US.
While you know there are a lot of covers for these things that covers repeat one of -- but a lot of people don't like the covers the -- bulky and that kind of thing.
So I insurance would obviously be fantastic way to go we put together some some -- people home to give them an idea some of the things that can be done.
And some of the things -- people -- dealing with when it comes to protecting.
-- -- you can see right there you can get a quote for example you go on there you find you put the item the brand a model carrier.
-- selective for preferred payment option and you you gives you a quote per month.
What you can pay to get your your gadget.
You know it's basically secured and you can go -- guessing compare that gadget policy it is out there are so.
People at home can can look and see in and do the shopping in and properly be aware of what what's available.
I've visited -- think it's really important in today's modern world -- consumers understand what they're buying.
And they -- on the part of a -- buying.
Having the availability on -- means that he couldn't show you can look at the coverage you can look at the pricing you can look at the deductible.
One of the key things that we always invites consumers -- to understand the difference between a warranty products -- -- -- us.
A warranty partners connect -- from the chemical breakdown is -- -- you for damage.
And insurance product is what -- what did you -- -- you.
For mechanical breakdown an accidental damage but it's also some insurance product coming -- for loss and -- Which a warranty when Kobe -- to deal homework do your research and make sure you get the the insurance purpose right for you.
Yet it good question -- a good point to me one -- review resist just.
Common and in that best buy no longer for example.
Insurers against village and that kind of thing so what about that -- -- had a computer out I have a glass of water here -- spill water on it is something like that covered.
And yet stunningly -- thyme liquid damage.
New gadgets are particularly susceptible to liquid damage so.
We -- liquid damage.
On on and on and on iTunes.
We will so damage against -- greens you know we.
We all know someone or as happened to us we've -- Japan and you -- to cracks Graeme.
