Then again, the only time I lost a watch was USPS

In Response To: Re: USPS Registered in the US, EMS Insured oversea ()

: Thanks Chuck. It sounds like USPS is clearly
: the best option for w/i the US.

: Shane

Then again, the only time I lost a watch was USPS... Of course the seller STUPIDLY used a USPS fold up box (which was fine) but he didn't put A SINGLE SPECK of tape on the box. Insured it for the full value of the watch (A gold 3-Register Heuer BTW) and sent it.

All a dishonest Postal Worker had to do was unfold the box, sort through the contents, and reassemble the box.

MORAL: Always insist that the seller packages and TAPES the box throughly to prevent tampering.

Hope this helps!
