Not the thousands of dollars that it's worth...the USPS doesn't care about that. Maybe you can still get the $50, but I'm not sure who's entitled to it, the sender or the receiver. The whole thing sucks. As does the USPS.

I have had one experience with insurance, and I found it to be worthless. Depending on cost of item, signature required or certified seems like a better option. A postal carrier friend recommends certified. Just my two cents.
Sorry to hear about this whole situation. It’s really hard on both parties when a piece of mail like we send gets lost. It’s natural for suspicions to arise, but I think by and large, we are all doing the right thing. I hope it works out.
