Fine talk about quality shipping and stuff BUT shouldn't we the consumer have a choice between crap shipping and high end shipping (some people are prepared to take the risk)?

P.S. Not a rant..i'll probably get something high end anyway to justify the shipping cost.
The problem with cheap shipping is that when things do go wrong, the ignorant customers still blame, or at least want damages covered by the company.
