PLEASE don't get me wrong, I can only imagine the frustration and annoyance of being in a situation like those mentioned in this thread and hope that I'm never in the same situation but the facts are that......:
1) No "system" is perfect.
2) AP processes a seriously ridiculous number of items each day, consequently........
3) There are always going to be instances of "things" falling through the cracks.
4) If there is no obvious common cause for items disappearing, it is probably difficult to find a "blanket" solution.
The postal system could do with a major revue and rethink but while ever it's focus is on dealing with and accommodating the decrease in general mail (letters) and the increase in parcel style items I don't hold much hope of there being a change.

I quite agree with you Chris......in an ideal world, it would be good if they compensated for the entire ' value ' of the item.
but ...back to reality ....they don't.
