Penny wise dollar stupid
Hey guys, i've had a few offer to help and I really appreciate it. If anyone else wants to help, please email me and i'll send the tracking.
I live in Colorado and had a friend in California buy something for me and drop it off at a UPS store for packing and shipping. Unfortunately I should have told them to make sure to get insurance, but I didn't. So yes, all I am entitled to is $100. But the package got about 100 miles from the UPS store and then no updates since it was checked into Sacramento Hub. So that is why I am hoping someone will help.
Thanks and Merry Christmas.

Depends on the lane they are moving in, but just looking at some of the larger hub to hub lanes it could be over 1k.
Are you really looking for a way to blame this on the customer? If the package is indeed "one of a kind" then the insurance money would just ease the pain.

I am the type of person who likes to care of his own business and part of that would have been purchasing the appropriate amount of insurance.

Actually, If it's a "one of a kind" UPS won't pay the claim even if you paid the insurance for the full amount $1700. Gotta read the fine print. Neither will FedEx.

True dat. UPS "doesn't accept" one-of-a-kind items.

(in the voice of Johnny Carson) I, I did not know that.
I would have thought that if a person had a receipt showing what was paid for an item, that it could be insured for that amount. I knew that you could not insure something used for the new replacement value, I knew that did not fly.
They issued a claim the shipper is getting $100 you can kiss the package goodbye if it's found UPS owns it.

Would that make it "one of a kind though"?
Judging by your posts on here you seem like the kind of person that needs someone to handle their business for them. On top of someone else handling your business it seems that you also need someone to instruct you in every step of your day. It's probably an employee much like yourself that is the root cause of the mishandling of the package in question.
Need a description of what was in the package. Even with the claim being issued you might have a chance. The claim doesn't always mean "the end"

UPSSOCKS is 100 percent correct sir. We also need a very accurate description of the package and it contents.
I see by Google search of your email that you sell medical equipment on EBAY. Nothing wrong with that at all.
But if possible dimensions, brand name, serial number, color would help in an overgoods search.
