It's not just Canada Post. I had two studio flashes shipped by UPS and one arrived damaged. When I called, they told me that their insurance doesn't cover glass. The flashtube ($225Cdn) was made of glass, but was inoperative, not broken, so they eventually paid, after much discussion and stalling.
As for lenses, they're much sturdier than glassware or framed pictures, which is probably what the clerk was thinking of. Pat White - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
