The thing that a lot of people don’t like about paying for insurance, is that it can sometimes be expensive, depending on the size of the box, weight of the item, and how much you insure it for. However, insuring an item (any item) ensures YOU of two things. First off, if the item gets lost somehow, and you have proof (receipt) of the item, in this case a watch, you can show it to them and they will reimburse you the full amount. It’s still going to be a pain in the butt to replace the item, but replacing it is much better than not getting anything back in return!

Second off, when you insure an item they will most likely give you a tracking or confirmation number. And the person will usually have to sign for the package as well – I believe the sign-age is optional though. Honestly, I think everyone should appreciate the benefits of the tracking/confirmation number and the sign option. This is going to truly allow you to see that A) the package or item got to the person and that B) they, the intended person, got the package.

I have had about three mishaps where I did NOT get insurance on a package and it somehow got lost and I lost everything and never got anything in return! Pay the few extra dollars and save yourself some major heart ache, money and time! This can be especially important if you are sending a relative or a friend a watch and it’s a little on the expensive side. I would think you would WANT to be protected!
