[QUOTE="fiveohhhstang, post: 10475903, member: 25965"] Sometimes you don't even get the $200 you insure it for. Just because you insure it for a certain amount, that doesn't mean that's how much UPS will hand over. Many times they require an original receipt for the item and even then they will only pay you a depreciated value of what the item is worth. Here is a story about what a bitch it is to deal with shipping companies on insurance. My mom shipped some items she sold for a line hone machine packed in 1/2 in. PVC pipe. The people at the counter told her the packing was overkill and they should get there fine. Turns out they DIDN'T get there fine. UPS broke the PVC and the bar for the line hone fell out somewhere. Apparently UPS didn't notice this because they actually delivered the empty broken PVC pipe. My mom insured everything and spent weeks trying to dig up a receipt for these parts (they were purchased in 1994) that UPS said they required. After she finally found it, they tell her that they can't pay her for the full value because they didn't believe the parts were worth that much. The parts aren't made anymore and you can't find them used anywhere. Now my mom has to refund the money to the buyer for these parts which is more than the little amount of insurance money she got for them. [/QUOTE]
