Default Self Insuring

Posted By: Judge Dred

An excerpt from the previous post:

"since the disclaimer will have little practical effect unless the Seller can PROVE that he/she did mail the package correctly and that the goods were packaged in a responsible manner.."

On my part I assumed that the seller was shipping via USPS. I know this is not always the case. I'd like to add something to proof of sending an item via the USPS.

I ship from a main post office and I always have the postal service weigh the item and calculate the shipping charge. I am provided with a receipt that has the zip code of the area to which the package was sent. To me, this would be sufficient proof that I sent something to that area. What are the odds of people knowing so many different people in all of the different zip codes. Also, the fact that the package was shipped on a certain date would probably add validity that I actually sent a package to a person in that zip code.
