| Hi, noob here Trying to keep up front costs down; do most of you enter the value of the book in your order form or buy insurance from the carrier. Because the former seems to double the price. |

| One thing I never skimp on is shipping insurance. In fact, I often overestimate the value for shipping. If anything happens, I don't want to be the only one getting screwed. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by JGRNOT @JGRNOT I assume you are talking about CBCS shipments? You need to enter the true Fair Market Value of the books. It's not just about the insurance, it's about how much the slabbing is going to cost. Now maybe I fudge a little, but I enter my best estimate of FMV now, not after slabbing. If a book has FMV of $250 at 9.8, I would not enter that value before it actually receives a 9.8. I would enter the $100 that I could expect to sell it for today raw...or if it came back less than 9.8. |

| It's not a question of where it grips it. It's a simple question of weight ratios. A five ounce bird could not carry a one pound coconut! | ||

| @EbayMafia yeah CBCS shipment. All books I'm wanting to send places them in the 2 day modern category. So I was curious about needing actual FMV or not. Ty for the response. | ||
