For $45 a year, they are offerring shipping insurance. There are some restrictions on boxes (must be double boxed) and days to ship, so read the stuff carefully. But at 18 cents per hundred dollars, this is a fraction of what the PO charges and you can use Fed Ex or UPS.

$1.50 min per shipment
Doesn't cover First Class
Yearly fee
I'd bet that some of the other insurers, such as Shipsurance, are a better deal for those who aren't really heavy shippers.

Who do you use, Jeremy?
I am one of the "not so frequent" shippers and was recently wondering if there was any company worth going to and how they work?
To me, I am a bit concerned as I view it as I do other insurance.......easy to pay for the coverage, but the proof is in the way they handle claims. Do they have a policy of not paying out, having someone jump through impossible hoops, just need records, etc?
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
<< <i>I have a blanket policy under my dealer policy. I like it better than the one mentioned here. >>
That's fine for blankets, but what about coins?

Why would I insure my coins when my blankets are safe?
