[QUOTE="squeeeeze, post: 2578381, member: 34065"] As mentioned, the shipper is responsible until the new owner takes possession of it. It kills me when I see an ad and it says if the buyer wants insurance its on them to pay extra for it. That’s ridiculous to put it on the buyer. I always insure it, at my cost if I have to because I know I’m responsible for it getting to them. As far as USPS, they are terrible at paying claims. I’ve fought them tooth and nail for about 7 mos. to get a payout of only $150 for a box that actually delivered all the way to the recipient that was literally smashed, open on both ends, and empty! Another member and I swapped 2 boxes each of Berger bullets shipped USPS in a small flat rate box by each of us. His box arrived to me all smashed up with only 1 box of bullets. Anyways the guy went round and round and round, I helped what I could, asked for advice from other postal worker friends. They kept denying him. He finally got his claim for the MEASLY $50 included priority insurance months later. I’m sure they spent hundreds of $ in resources initially to just pay him in the end. It is amazing the lengths they go through to deny claims. I think denying is their first 7 steps before they actually even consider paying out. This doesn’t help Hecouldgoalltheway’s situation as he is no longer with us or the seller. The seller (shipper) would have to go through the legwork and apparently he’s not willing. Maybe as stated above he’ll get lucky and his package will miraculously appear at his house soon. 🤞 [/QUOTE]
