Signature______XXX______Doesn't insurance cover that? I would never buy a higher priced item without it. I just bought a new in box ( still had the plastic over the box ) from a member last month. Paid shipping with insurance and no problems. The scope I purchased retails for almost 700 on Amazon. He used my PO. Box so there would be no confusion. My USPS mail an shipment all go to my PO Box and I know all three employees. They would vouch for me if it didn't arrive.
Another good way to go is I will have it shipped to the Fed Ex office in Lynchburg. That way they can't argue the fact if I received it or not. Without my signature they have no feet to stand on if they try to argue the fact. I have had real expensive fishing reals, scopes and other higher priced items that way.
