I would have to disagree based on the fact that I just received a $733 check from FedEx. Paid for 700 insurance, they damaged a NOS grille, and they paid for the insurance claim and also refunded the shipping cost. Also put 200 insurance on an inner NOS 69 grille that came cracked with a dented box. Got the 225 check within a couple weeks. So yes, they do offer insurance for an additional charge and do pay it if it's a valid claim. Not sure in every case as mentioned above, but worked in my case.
