<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Brett_in_Sacto, post: 2469812, member: 71510&quot;]FWIW, I did get an insurance re-imbursement on a ~$700 rare stamp set earlier this year.&nbsp; It was going overseas, I used ShipCover.&nbsp; It took 8 weeks to process, and I was on pins and needles.&nbsp; I did get all my money back - excluding shipping and insurance costs.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you get insurance, always follow every letter of the rules.&nbsp; Even then, their objective is NOT to pay you - so sometimes you need to step up and be persistent.</p><p><br /></p><p>File claims immediately, get confirmation, get confirmation AGAIN, ask about the timeline, and don&#039;t let a day go by outside the timeline.&nbsp; Don&#039;t harass the person on the phone, they *can* help you.&nbsp; Make them your friend.&nbsp; If you annoy them, they won&#039;t lift a finger - and may even recommend not fulfilling the claim if they can find a way.</p><p><br /></p><p>There is no hard and fast rule for insurance.</p><p><br /></p><p>What are you shipping?&nbsp; Where is it going?&nbsp; How well is it packaged?&nbsp; What is the reputation of the buyer?&nbsp; How much can you afford to lose?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
