Back in my college days I found out that unscrupulous ins agents (not all are) will low-ball you with a quote to get you committed and then come back for the rest. I don't know how they are able to get away with it but they do. The fact that the quote swung from 340 to 1700 to 660 says either he's a crook or doesn't know what he's doing and either way its time to find a different agent. If its a major company you can call the home office and ask for your account to be transfered to a different agent.
