Hi all,
Please let me know if this posted in the wrong place but I thought I'd start here. My sister-in-law (husband's sister) left her jewelry at our home when she was staying with us. She asked us to ship the items to her as we wouldn't be seeing her again for some time. Included was their grandmother's (who has long since passed away) wedding ring which she wears as an every day ring on her right hand.
We shipped it though the UPS store at Staples and I insured the package at $5,000. Well, long story short - it was lost in delivery. UPS opened a claim on the lost package but now to recover, they want us to provide proof of value. They suggested finding a like object at another store but I have no idea how to do this for an heirloom product. I'm unsure if she has insured on her own (I hope so but somehow with the way this has played out, it wouldn't surprise me if she didn't) but she has been traveling for work and I haven't been able to get in touch with her to find out.
Has this every happened to anyone before? Does anyone have suggestions on how we can get this resolved?
