I mailed a quilt to a lady friend in Texas from Wisconsin. I insured it for $750 (batik, one of a kind, king size). I was assured that since it was insured for over $200, a signature would be required and it would not be left at the door. Unfortunately, my friend found it on her doorstep, where the carrier delivered it. I have contacted my USPS and was told that either the carrier did not bother with a signature, or maybe signed it themselves. The supervisor at my PO is investigating for me. I would trust the USPS again, as they have responded to my inquiry. However, since she did get the quilt, no harm no foul, but the policy was violate somewhere.
