in case any dealers or other sellers have a differing philosophy:

if I ship a package to anyone that is insured and it gets damaged or lost, my customer gets their refund immediately, whether I have been paid or not. It is not the buyer's duty to see their package arrives undamaged, it is mine. Therefore, my indemnification of the buyer is separate from my insurer's indemnification to me. If my insurer fails to pay me, that is no excuse for me to not pay the buyer. Making a buyer wait until I have settled with the insurer, to me, is abrogating my responsibility and a failure of responsible business.

Vesna having to wait is ridiculous

I've had a parcel shipped from the US that was insured and arrived damaged.
It took a while, but I was paid out the value insured for plus the postage cost.

Cheers,

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Insurance purchased is only good IN the US, once it is overseas, your insurance is no longer valid, regardless of circumstance.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.

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. Alan

Howdy y'all,

When any member ships to an international customer ... do you insure for full value and state full value for customs purposes?

I am always asked if I will declare a nominal value on the item, so that the international buyer does not have to pay the value added tax (VAT).

Sooo ... do you or don't you?
