Elecraft self-insures on outbound shipments (i.e., shipments from Elecraft
to customer). That means they accept the responsibility of carrier loss or
damage because their history of loss/damage has been low.
The fact that they self-insure doesn't cover shipments to them unless the
company is paying for the shipping, as is the case with a warranty return,
I believe. Their shipping instructions for repair returns out of warranty
recommend the customer insure the shipment.
I received about a 25% discount from UPS when I shipped my KPA1500 a couple
of months ago due to my membership in a professional society. You might
check for similar discounts if you have any similar memberships.
