As I mentioned in another article, I often shoot in extreme conditiions and
have been very lucky not to have had any accidents or water/grime/etc
issues. However... I can't expect to go where I go in the conditions I go
out shooting in and expect that luck to continue. I have liked the Ritz
warranty in the past and know that Best Buy warrants against accidental
damage as well.

If I buy a camera on line where my camera choice is priced right (Beach?)
but they only sell the Mack warranty (no accidents) is there some other
place I can buy a warranty that's worth it's paper and includes accidents?

Thanks for any good suggestions...

But camera insurance to cover all your gear.

Interesting suggestion. I called my insurance carrier today and got a quote.
Seems that it would add about $15 to the annual premium. Now... if one were
to buy the 5 year Mack extended at about $50 and add the insurance at $15
and extend that to $75 you get about $125 which is roughly in line with what
a AHD warranty would cost. I guess the decision would hinge on who you felt
more comfortable to pay the bill should some misfortune occur.
