<p>[QUOTE="Vegas Vic, post: 1852374, member: 58810"]All I am ever asked is liquid, explosive or fragile. I think it is very rude for the employee to pry past this. You need to stick to the job. Period. I would never tell them anything else. When I was a teenager I worked for a dealer. He was buying ms67 fb mercury dimes when they were being mass graded by ngc from the guy who was submitting roll after roll . A fed ex guy took six full sized fed ex boxes filled with these dimes and just vanished. Over 100k in lost coins. They were insured but it still really disrupted the guys business. You can not be too careful when it comes to safety. </p><p><br /></p><p>Your return address is on the package. Do you really want a guy making a starting postal salary knowing your home address and that you collect rare coins? Home invasions are a serious thing. Forget about the coins or the money really bad things happen during these events. Why give someone a reason to target you. Just tell them it is an item of value but something like a prototype valve. Something that no one would think twice about wanting because there is no way to fence it. Maybe a patent application. A new computer circuit. Whatever. Use your own imagination.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
