Those bloody cables are still very upsetting - even after all these years.

As a seller on EBay when a item is shipped internationally it can't be insured which means if it doesn't show up I am stuck with it being a total loss. USPS cannot track a international package so when it takes forever to arrive and a buyer leaves negative feedback there is nothing I can do.

It's just not worth it to me to go thru the hassle and liability.

Certainly can be insured.

But only up to $2499! with USPS.

Certainly can be insured.

Good luck getting paid on a claim. I speak from experience.

Once it goes outside the US they won't pay the claim.

As a seller on EBay when a item is shipped internationally it can't be insured.

A very quick search of the USPS site shows that you can insure international items for up to $2499 for just $24.

As a seller on e-bay, you might want to bear that in mind for the future. It'll open up your potential customer base


too slow.

Pretty sure there are other options. UPS, FedEx, etc.

I just wonder why they think they suddenly need more packaging to send a $3000 amp internationally than across their huge nation!

Now that Ebay only allows bad feedback from buyers, it seems people should have more patience!

I always laugh about that, they wouldn't mind so long as its inside america, airfreight usually take more care of packages than some postal worker. It probably gets handled far less going air freight reducing the risk of it getting banged about.
