Need Shipping Advice

Lets say a single buyer purchased 5 complete sets, valued at 2-3k each, from a seller. The seller would like to ship the sets in 3 separate large priority flat rate boxes for size and insurance purposes. As long the seller properly insures and uses signature conf. on each separate box, would this method be legit and within eBay and PP guidelines? I think it is, but I want to make sure there is no loopholes that would allow the buyer to come back on the seller. Registered is too slow, but UPS may be an option, but would they insure bb cards?
Thanks in advance

I would use Express Mail, instead; less time for drama.
.................
To be bulletproof with PayPal, it would be best to issue
FIVE seperate invoices, and use FIVE seperate boxes.
This prevents a crook from easily claiming that the contents
of the boxes are "incomplete."

In general, the $-transaction described is really too large
to trust PayPal with.
seller can still use registered mail and send priority mail. insurance would be cheaper thru registered mail.

Yup, the insurance is a bit cheaper.
We are dealing with 3 to 5 boxes here.
The Reg-fee is charged for each box.
A: Priority + Reg + Ins + Sig-Con
vs.
B: Express + Ins
Item A might still be cheaper than B, but I am too lazy to do the math.
...........
Sig-Con is also needed for any of the methods other
than Express.
The Express paperwork - viewable online - replaces
Sig-Con, for PayPal purposes.
..............
NEVER waive the sig on the Express Mail form. The
waiver - sig by carrier - may/will NOT be accepted
by PayPal.
in 2 to 3 days. After a certain value one id forced to pay priority rates for registered mail.
