<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 130354, member: 4552"]You can get mailers from Walmart that are just as good as the post offices packages and a lot cheaper. I agree that you should use a 2x2 flip, sealed edges with tape, put in a piece of folded over cardboard so nothing could be shakem out, add mewspaper or bubble rap over that. Tape all edges securely. I've had coins dissapear in the mail regardless of registered and insured. The fast shake method makes sharp, heavy objects burst out of corners. </p><p><br /></p><p>Now as to insurance, I absolutely agree that you should get insurance, however, be carefull. Not sure but I heard of a court case where someone insured something for more than it was worth and it was considered a felony. Not sure of the details but you may want to check this out with the post office.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
