Mr Mikey · 07-02-2008

Did you pay with paypal ? they have coverage up to $2000.00, but I am not sure if it covers lost items.
As an ebay seller I always purchase insurance for the value I sold the item for. Hopefully the seller did this, if so he will file a claim and refund your full amount once he receives payment from FedEX, but my understanding is that it is the shippers responsibility not the buyers. I may be corrected on this but that is what I have always been told.
I never ship in a box that can identify what is inside, the driver probably had no clue what was in the box.
Keep us up to date on what happens.
