Well, To me, the whole shipping thing is the most complicated and vague of all
the selling and trading issues, a lot of unknowns and unproveables. I do not
think that you can transfer the liability to the buyer, maybe in writing with
the buyers signature, but you're saying with a verbal agreement? What would
stop the scammers from taking it to the extreme? I can't see how a verbal
agreement would overrule PO Regulations. I asked at my PO about this very
issue, "If I tell the buyer I won't be responsible if they don't insure" and I
was told, nope, you are still responsible, why? the scammers. You should check
it out at the PO next time you go in and talk to the Inspector. John
