Hi Dave

Is it secure as I bought an Iphone last week and I have broken it already! >:(

It is a fairly high value item and I would hate it to go AWOL! Its bad enough breaking the screen without losing it entirely!

The post office does have an option to insure it as well, but this you'll have to check directly with them.

I have used it quite a lot in the last few years for one thing or another, and never had a drama.

Admin idea about wrapping it is good. But rather than clothes, I would use bubble wrap ;)
