sad USPS Loses another Package sad

A couple of weeks ago I sold a couple of high end chips to a collector in Colorado. The cost of the two chips was $1500. I had the chips packaged in a USPS provided Priority Mail box and filled out an insurance form. The postal clerk explained that it would be cheaper and safer if I sent the package registered insured. So I wrapped the Priority Mail box with brown paper and taped it with brown tape according to the USPS rules and mailed it. Today the supervisor of my local USPS branch called me to ask what was in the package. When I asked why, she explained that the pouch that contained my package is missing. I guess it is good as gone and now I have to go through hell and back to get a claim paid. And all because I listened to my local postal clerk's advise. And now some postal clerk in Colorado just got two great early Vegas $1 chips. Any suggestions?
