Re Insurance

[mcdionysos]

I used to sell stuff on EBay and want to start again. In the past, one could charge for insurance. now it seems you can't. (?) Also, I used to sell old books and send Media Mail which I understand cannot be insured? Also I believe no tracking available? Had a problem one time w/a book. It came back to me and was able to resend via another way. Any tips on protecting oneself if an item sold does not arrive or arrives damaged? ESPECIALLY if shipping overseas. Have heard some unfavorable things about the EBay International Shipping Center (or whatever called). Thanks, friends!!
