While I would still consider insuring parcels I send of any significant value, it appears tracking is an effective minimum option.

TIL.
ebay and PayPal don't mind whether a seller has insurance or not, but they do require a tracking number and proof of delivery from the seller in the event of a buyer claim for non-receipt.
