I am not sure if you are permitted to insure event tickets via USPS but a Google search would answer this question. I despise UPS...FedEx is good but more expensive.

+1. This is what you need to do to cover both you and buyer without any issues.

My bad, good to know... Been doing that for years too, so I guess I was just lucky I've never got burnt.

Thankyou very much to all for the advice!

BTW, I did some research regarding insurance and I will only
be covered the cost of face value on the tickets, per USPS rules.
