Not really to add to this post excessively, but the Priority Mail "Confirmation Number" is exactly that - a confirmation that it is delivered. No real time tracking, etc. It does not require a signature of the receiver - i.e. there is no condition for release. Insurance on the shipment value is not covered by this service and must be purchased separately. If it goes missing with no insureance, there's no recourse for reimbursal. - Jim "who uses USPS PM a lot and really thinks it's an incredible value" -- Jim Edgar cyclofi...@earthlink.net Cyclofiend Bicycle Photo Galleries - http://www.cyclofiend.com Current Classics - Cross Bikes Singlespeed - Working Bikes Send In Your Photos! - Here's how: http://www.cyclofiend.com/guidelines "There were messengers who named their bikes, but Chevette never would have done that, and somehow because she did think about it like it was something alive."
