Ebay International Standard Delivery - is value of item visible to mail handler?

I have an expensive wristwatch to send from US to UK and I was wondering how best to send it. Ebay changes the label when they ship th uitem from the US, I gather. Does the new label show the value of the item, or identify the item? With the regular USPS First Class International package, the identity of the item is written on the box. Anybody have any tips on how to send items overseas and avoid "losing" them? Thanks

Any package shipped through customs will reveal both contents and value on the customs form. EISD includes insurance up to $100 for lost packages.

 

You can look into EIS which is a different program with different coverage - more seller protections.

EIS is (slowly) replacing the Global Shipping Program (GSP) and it's being rolled out to sellers in phases. For info on GSP click here: Seller Center | Help Page | Buyer Terms & Conditions

User profile "Location" says "United Kingdom", but shipping address is "Kuala Lumpur". Buyer does have 150 feedbacks.
