year ago or so, I sent two big rig kits to another member here on the forum, got in a hurry and mailed them without insurance [had someone at work mail them for me]. well, when the guy got the package, it had been repackaged by USPS with a note saying original package was damaged. so, he opens it up, and it looked like the sampsonite gorillas got ahold of it, lol. needless to say about 1/2 of one kit was missing from the carnage. i did send another kit to make up for it, and sent it insured, as I have done on every other package since.
