[QUOTE="tmnt, post: 2798026, member: 79975"]You would never ship anything if you saw how mail is processed. I toured one of USPS's bulk mail centers a few years ago and it's surprizing that mail is ever delivered. Yet somehow the majority of the time it is with no issues. Its unfortunate that you had a bad experience. If the coin (coin holder or slab) wasn't damaged then trying to get a claim for this from USPS is probably not going to be worth anyone's time. They will not pay the full insurance rate, only what they consider damage. Bubble mailers actually do a pretty good job of protecting items. I use them all of the time. I see no fault on the seller's part for this. There is nothing wrong with asking for assistance from ebay but, like others have mentioned, you should always try to resolve it with the seller first. When I sell items and something like this happens it sucks because you get screwed bad. Ebay takes 10% in fees and you either have to pay out to settle or take back a damaged item.
