USPS overnight mail can only be insured for $5000. I would want the item to be mailed as Registered Mail, which can cover the full $100k if you pay the fees. Registered Mail is slower, but it is reliable. Many jewelers use Registered Mail to ship large amounts of jewelry and the Postal Service uses Registered Mail to send in their nightly cash deposits.

Is FEDEX the one that caps insurance payouts for collectibles at only $1,000 no matter how much you actually pay?

I am assuming shipping items that expensive they are privately insured.

USPS priority mail registered and insured for the dollar amount that the card is worth. This requires each employee that touches the package to sign for it and secure it between transfer stations / postal offices. Takes a bit longer, but you can also track each movement. The person on the recieving end needs to sign for the package. If the buyer isn't home when the package arrives, USPS holds the item in a safe at the post office until it is picked up.

If I sold something for $100k, I'd just buy a plane ticket and go meet the buyer face to face. I'd just buck and pay the $400-$500 for the flight, couple of hundred dollars for the hotel, etc. That way payment can be made there.
