Insurance has nothing to do with their piss poor job of getting it to me. Insurance is completely beside the point. The USPS screwed up. No defense... Not the end of the world.
ps...gas is about $2.20 in Dallas so it will buy a gallon.....and I will be going back to the seller on this one to see if we can come to a mutually good situation...I paid $5 in shipping...
