If you do the ebay thing and print your postage through paypal and either drop at the post office or take to a window, they don't scan the package there, so you have no proof they received it. If you go to file a claim and there's no scan at the origin and the receiver never got it, guess what? You don't get paid if you paid for insurance because they don't have proof you ever got it to them other than the transaction in paypal and guess what? They won't pay.....had that happen on a $100 item and I was out. SO.....I go to the window and have them do everything there now. It's a royal pain in the ass but I have proof that they received my item on both the delivery confirmation slip, insurance slip and then on the register receipt. 99.9% of the time you won't have a problem using ebay and printing it out but when you do, it could be costly. Maybe $100 is a hit you can afford to take but I was basically pissed off and now I clog up the windows getting everything processed. They used to scan the paypal processed packages in but now they refuse to do that. Just my experiences..............
