my 2 cents on shipping
Sorry this happened to you.
These are the guidlines I use for myself when shipping collectibles.
I always use USPS.
(1)Anything under $100 value. I ship USPS first class or priority flat rate box with delivery confirmation. I am "self insuring " at this point - I feel it is not worth the $ for the insurance.
(1) above $100 value to $250
USPS first class or priority with delivery confirmation and insurance
(3) $250 - $500. USPS priority plus signature confirmation and insurance. This (signature conf) will cover you for Ebay transactions and and paypal disputes.
(4)$500 -$1000 USPS Express with signature conf and insurance
(5) above $1000 registered mail or Express with insurance and Signature confirmation. Note that registered mail takes a long time ( up to 10-14 days) because of the step by step "lock and key" process.
