what is the safest way to mail an extremely expensive piece of jewelry? FEDEX has a $100 maximum regardless.? It is coming from the middle east (as a personal gift) and I want to make sure it isn't stolen (which is a huge possibility), and that I don't pay for $40k insurance and only get $100 back when it comes up missing. Is my only option physically going overseas to retrieve the item!? FEDEX only allows $100 max if the package is stolen--no matter how much I insure it for. DHL apparently can't cover it either. I don't know how to find a private courier in the middle east who ships to the U.S The issue is finding someone who will honor the amount of the value of the item --- it doesn't do me any good to insure the item for 40k if they only pay $100 should it come up missing.
