<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rodeoclown, post: 1500746, member: 34005&quot;]USPS is protecting itself from outside frauds by asking those who insure packages to actually prove what&#039;s in it is worth what they say it&#039;s worth. I shipped items worth 5k and only paid $70.00 for the insurance. It would be too easy for me to file a fraudulent claim (breaking item, bashing package it was in, etc), get my easy 5k without little proof of what the actual value was inside. Unfortunately, sentimental items can be priceless and one should be cautious in sending such items through a postal carrier.</p><p><br /></p><p>People have home insurance, if their house burns down along with all their &quot;priceless&quot; pictures, it&#039;s not like the insurance company is going to pay them millions for lost memories through such pictures.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t blame USPS or any carrier.&nbsp; USPS already loses enough money and is depending on our tax dollars to keep them afloat for the most part. I don&#039;t want me tax money to pay for people&#039;s items because such people can insure a package at any value they feel it&#039;s worth to just them and nobody else.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
