FYI ... Insurance purchased is only good IN the US, once it is overseas, your insurance is no longer valid, regardless of circumstance.
Some international customers state noted higher values is another reason for the undervaluing ... because they do not trust their own postal service. ad ________________________________ From: Alan Adler <m...@charter.net> To: allen day <aday_5...@yahoo.com> Cc: mopo-l@listserv.american.edu Sent: Tuesday, December 4, 2012 5:06 PM Subject: Re: [MOPO] OT Another question for the members of this forum regarding international shipping I don't undervalue - seems like I would be breaking some international law - and if the item is say a $500 item - and you insured it for that - how can you undervalue the item and ever get a payout if loss or damaged? And I wouldn't ship an expensive piece without insurance. Especially these days when Paypal will just debit your account if it doesn't show.
