on ebay as long as you have delivery confirmation on items under $250.00 I think you will be fine with your stipulation, if its over 250.00 and they dont purchase insurance you are liable if it doesn't make it to them no matter what you put in the auction. ebay is a more buyer friendly medium than a seller friendly medium even though the sellers pay the bills, the buyers that keep coming back is what keeps the sellers from leaving to go elsewhere to sell. A buyer can buy from many places and if they have a couple bad transactions from sellers they will not come back to that site, chances are a seller is going to keep going where the biggest audience is to get rid of all the junk they don't want even after they have a few bad experiences, Just because of the size of the audience you can reach

PayPal states that if the item is over $250, the seller must use signature confirmation to be protected. Delivery Confirmation is for the seller's protection (proof) whereas insurance is for the buyer's protection. Using USPS, if you have insurance on a package without Delivery Confirmation and the item is lost in the mail, PayPal will make you refund the buyer, period. If you have Delivery Confirmation, PayPal/eBay will side with the seller.

The best thing might be to use UPS or Fedex where you automatically have tracking AND insurance on anything you send.

Except that neither one of those two will insure collectible coins. If they are lost or stolen it's too bad, sorry about that.
