Travel Insurance: Query on adaquate Personal Belongings Cover

I've been looking around for Travel Insurance that provides adaquate
cover on Personal Belongings.

Most of the off-the-shelf holiday insurance cover providers appear to
have a limit of =A3200-=A3350 on single items, so that more expensive
items such as cameras and Camcorders are not covered if at all.

Does anyone of any reasonably-priced holiday insurance deals that, say,
cover up to =A31,000 on individual items?

If you have personal possessions cover with your contents insurance this
should cover you for things you take on holiday.

The reason for this is becasue the level of fraud on such cover is
very very high.

You will be lucky to find such cover with a travel policy
