Default Postal Insurance question

Posted By: T206Collector

I purchased a board with a bunch of T206 cards glued to it on ebay for about $200, if memory serves me. My hope was to remove the cards from the board with a good soaking. Fortunately, the seller put approximately $400 of insurance on it before he sent it to me. Well, the postal service actually tore the board -- Clark Griffith and Miller Huggins both torn in half. I brought the pieces of the cards to the post office with a copy of the insurance forms from the seller, and after filling out some forms, I made a claim for $100, which I felt was the amount I was perhaps damaged by this. Well, about a month later I got a check in the mail for $100 from the USPS. This happened a little over a year ago.
