Freaks me out to mail a very expensive card to someone across the country, but the insurance seems very expensive and hopefully completely unnecessary. Just mailed an expensive card to someone today priority mail, signature required, and added $1000 of insurance. (Which is a fraction of what the card is worth.) Three questions:

- has anyone had a disaster where a pricey card was actually lost and never found by USPS?

- do you take additional insurance commonly?

- is there one way of shipping (USPS, UPS, Fed Ex) that you only use when shipping a pricey card?

Thanks.
