Actually, the USPS does have exactly that program for unique and/or high
value items. Its called Registered Mail. They even offer actual

I've always wonder why UPS or any shipper doesn't have a specialty handling
charge. How many buy a rare item that needs to be shipped and wouldn't be
glad to pay extra? I would. Say it is a small package worth $1500. Shipping
and worthless insurance $20.00
I'd pay $50 if you got it to me in one pie

Hi,
Is anyone interested in the original wood carry-cover and handle for the
rare aluminum-motor "Edison" phonograph made in Chicago ca. 1896 (CTMCo)?
I know where there is one... has the original hardware as well. I don't
think many were made, as they were sued pretty quickly.
