1) Rick, what you said just isn't true. I'm not saying that customs does not check random packages, but even in the ones that they open the delay is rarely more than a couple of days.
2) Why would anybody bother insuring a $50 item, it's barely worth your time going through the forms that have to be filled out to get your money back.
3) As others have said there's no way 2.6% of packages disappear or get damaged, so if you do multiple transactions you will come out ahead in the long run, and any one $50 loss will not bankrupt anybody.
