I believe the cost they are listing is the replacement value for insurance. Big koi can be very pricey to replace depending on their size. I highly doubt that she paid $4500 for each of her koi.

jag123;4133298; said:It does not indicate it in the story(which is extremely brief), but how do they know the fish were actually STOLEN? How do they know that a hungry mob of herons didn't descend on this pond? I would be interested to know where the evidence is that proves/disproves this was an actual theft.
