So the USPS does not make good on their insurance no matter what. Even if it is sent registered and they cannot show a signature received, they still will not pay out on an insured package. That is ridiculous. I know it would be a major hassle, but I would think they should be taken to small claims court over that one. Maybe the lawyers here can comment.


Other than to scam people out of their money, I don't see why somebody would have to show a recipt or even proof of value. If I pay $50 to insure a $5000 item, it seems to me that they are just betting they will lose the package less than 1% of the time. If I paid my $50, what difference does it make what is or is not inside there? This just seems like a very unethical way to increase their odds.
