Insurance is $1.70 if you desire it, if using Paypal insurance is required

Title is from the description of an ebay auction. I don't normally worry about insurance on items under $50. Also, I prefer to pay by paypal. I don't feel it is right to demand you buy insurance if paying by paypal and no other way. I think he should leave it as optional or demand it no matter how you pay! For those that want a link just look up seller: seylevel.

the way paypal works, the seller is trying to cover his behind in case the USPS screws up on a paypal sale. Pretty common. Better thing to do for an item less than fifty bucks is just specify a flat rate shipping fee that includes the cost of insurance for all buyers.

That seller has been over charging for insurance for a long time. BTW the coins I got from them arrived with no insurance.

I don't do business with them any more!!!!!

And how are you concluding that they were not insured? Private insurance such as PIP (Parcel Insurance Plan)
is used by many sellers, is paid for separately, and sellers are asked NOT to stamp "Insured" on the package, since it
yells "steal me."

This thread has what to do with Numismatics and coins?

Does seylevel still refuse to combine shipping?

All most forgot about that too. Still wondering who was pushing the bids up. But don't even look there any more.

Ouch! I bought from her when i was first getting back into coins and didn't know better....she sells to you then sends her list to you, outside of ebay, and the prices are about the same (or were)....makes you think you are getting a good deal....
