I ship through an insurance broker, ParcelPro, who uses FedEx. I've never had a package "lost", even to Italy. https://www.parcelpro.com/public/about.aspx
Respectable Member dsio and also, other respectable members All your advice and comments are appreciated. I have been told, those Italian buyers have agreed that their parcels be sent, via FedEx International Priority. Probably they are aware of the issue, facing them. Thank-you.
