Default Shattered in Shipping

Posted By: James Gallo

I have NEVER seen anyone claim it would be the sellers responsibility to purchase insurance. Insurance is always the option of the buyer and at the buyer's cost.

Some people use there own insurance carrier but if the cards were not damaged then there would be no claim.

That being said this is one of the reasons why unless a buyer says they don't want priority mail I always ship my stuff packed well in a priority mail box. I have never had any problem.

I have received many slabbed cards in just a single mailer and only once did I have a problem. The seller refunded me the cost of the reslab and I would suspect that if you asked the dealer they might do the same.

That being said as you stated you choose not to get insurance, then again the packing wasn't the best IMO but not something totally out of the norm either.
