USPS Online insurance question
 

Posted By: <b>Chris</b><p>I'm not sure but I believe there is a person who frequents this board that works for the USPS. My question is this, what is the policy for a package that is paid for online with insurance? I paid for insurance through Paypal for a package I was shipping and asked the clerk to scan it when I gave it to him. He gave me a bunch of grief about it saying it wasn't necessary. How else do I prove I took the package to the Post Office should it get lost and I have to file a claim? I'm pretty sure the USPS is not going to settle an insurance claim in my favor if it was never scanned into the systme and it gets lost. Anybody know the actual USPS policy on this? They don't scan the Delivery Confirmation either but I have come to accept this, but Insured packages should be different shouldn't they?
