Yet at some stage in nearly every single persons job in the world(ok, western world) people are insured to cover mistakes they make. Malpractice insurance for doctors and lawyers, every store you work in has insurance incase someone spills something and someone else slips on it, what if you stack the cans of tomatoes unsafely and one falls on a kids head, no problem, the store and the employee is insured.
People really are silly, mistakes happen NO MATTER WHAT JOB YOU ARE IN.
They offer you insurance, its not increasing the cost its DECREASING THE COST for the majority of post you will send in you life and giving you the normal price for things that need it.
If every single piece of mail was insured, all stamps would cost significantly more and every parcel would cost more, by only insuring whats needed, everyone saves money.
SImple fact is, lets say you spent £4, had you spent £6 for insurance as standard you'd be covered without issue. However, if £6 was the standard cost and everything was insured, you'd be complaining that you had to spend £6 to send, a mouse worth £20, when you could have sent it for £4 but they don't offer mail without insurance.
I've never once not had adequate insurance on anything i've sent, and I've sold tonnes of my old second hand kit, and honestly, I've never had a single thing damaged or lost in the post by RM either. I'm also thankful I can pay less when I don't need more insurance.
