[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 3028879, member: 66"]You have basically repeated the same thing I have posted here many times. Registered is the safest way to ship, and once you get over a thousand dollars in value pretty much the cheapest as well. You can insure a single package up to $50,000 for about $100. That's .2%. Worth more than 50K?, if it is divisible, just send more packages. And the price rates for insuring with Registered are on the site, you just have to know where to look. Go here [url]https://pe.usps.com/text/dmm300/Notice123.htm[/url] Then press Ctrl+F to bring up the Find window. Type in Registered and it will take you right to the prices. One thing, although it shows rate for up to over $15 million in value, the maximum they will pay out in claims is $50,000 per package. If you ask them about that they explain that the extra fee over $50K is to provide extra security for the package. Another thing, if the Registered package is leaving the country, as soon as it leaves the US the MAXIMUM payout if it is lost, stolen or damaged drops to $50 no matter how much you insured it for.[/QUOTE]
