Could we threaten him with broken beer bottles?  It would be like our calling card.

UPS will reimburse the shipper for lost or damaged good without the need for insurance on a package.

Thanks! I thought this was the case but I was gonna check at work tonight but it seems you answered my question. Anyway, I just scan the packages or stack em' in vehicles and cans.
I use USPS when I buy music gear from the USA such as my bass and both my guitars, because they were expensive, I always take out insurance as a matter of course, but not on letters. I've not had any probs with USPS.

That means that I shouldn't be taxed to allow you to send your letters at a lower price. I don't care that it exists. I care that it's funded by tax revenue, and that law prevents other companies from providing the same services that they do. i send lots of letters. im glad you get taxed to save me cash. send more letters to make up for the tax if you have a problem with it

Thanks Rob. I thinks it's habit that I always sign it , I am on 2 other forums, I always sign it even my emails. god knows why? i'll look at the signature feature ta
