Thanks Peter,

But do you know anyone who has ever actually done it? And how do you prove the contents were worth what you insured the package for? Especially if the cigars are no longer available.

This always concerns me, even though I still purchase insurance. In addition, half the people at the counter think you are not even allowed to ship cigars.
