Joseph,
The payment for the overhaul and refurbishment was done by wire.
But thanks for thinking about that.
My concern is although who’s legally responsible for bringing my
refurbished parts back to me?
Obviously it’s not the UPS since they can just pay out the (low) insured
amount value and then forget about it.
So is it the shop?
Julian,
Just curious, did you get any insurance amount from USPS prior to receiving
the radiator tank?
Cheers Bjoern

Don't know the legalities, but something to think about if any
payment was
with credit card would be notify credit card company.A I ran into a
problem
where I waited too late for them to take action on my part (when
upholstery
skip town).

I would agree that the company that shipped and insured them is
ultimately
responsible for replacement, they are incumbent until delivered and
knowingly took the risk of under insuring.
UPS normally won't process a claim until it is clearly evident they
have
truly lost the parts, which usually means waiting a week or two.
They do
seem to lose track of stuff with surprising frequency despite all
the
handheld scan in - scan out processes and fortunately more often
than not it
turns up again.
Believe it or not I actually once had a radiator expansion tank /
bottle
turn up via USPS over 6 months after it was shipped.
Julian

Thanks for both your replies. Appreciate it.
Bob,
You wrote: aThe company that shipped the product to you is
ultimately

Are they ultimately legally responsible for amy own old refurbished
car
partsa until I have them back in my possession?
Can I legally go after this company if they donat stand up?
Will any mechanic shop have proper insurance that will cover such a
mistake,
ie. they didnat declare the return shipping value high enough?
Cheers Bjoern
