I think the post office will be quick to blame you. ![]() I have little experience with fragile items but would suggest to avoid them. Claim was approved quickly on the first try. I had opened a case to find the package and was informed it had been more then 14 days and I should consider the item lost and could collect any insurance on the package. The second the item was lost and not scanned. It was only later on that I was informed the item was not actually available for pickup and won on appeal. In the first they denied the claim because it had timed out but I won on appeal because I had no reason to believe the item was anywhere other then at the postoffice as the tracking stated. In the other case the item left the destination facility and disappeared. In one case the item was "available for pickup" but the post office confirmed not having the item. On 2 occasions I had items lost in transit or at least they were never scanned delivered. I have never made a claim for damage so this may or may not be useful. With the new $15 surcharge, NO WAY would I ship with USPS seeing the insurance doesn't cover shipping, that's a $25-$30 automatic loss. Nope, 2 days later it says claim paid, well approved, its been 10 days and I still haven't got the check. The buyer took it in for inspection, which normally generates another denial saying it never got inspected. ![]() Guess it was a wave good bye, to my surprise, it didn't get denied, I got a letter in 6 days requiring inspection. to April 3rd without one broke item, but the last rod I sold(because of the surcharge) they broke it. I lucked out and most of the buyers took them in for inspection for me and that's waiting 10 days to get the letter with the claim number which you need and can't get online. Most took a couple denials and 2-4 months to get paid plus they get to keep the shipping. Ugh, its nightmare filing a claim, they broke a bunch of fishing rods last year.
