UPS doesn't offer insurance, though they will sell you something if you ask for insurance. Not sure what they are selling, but it isn't insurance.
USPS sells insurance, but I'm not sure what it is they are selling, either.
I ship expensive guitars, and so far no trouble, but just so far.
It works like crap, unless they lose the item. Otherwise, they go right into the: "It wasn't packed right" "Deny" "Deny" "Deny" mode. I had one claim where they said it wasn't packed properly, so denied. And it was packed by them (UPS, packed by Mailbox Etc, which they own).
