Jewelers usually ship loose diamonds via Registered Mail.
For regular first-class mail, though, USPS is a bit unreliable.

Your package might make it but why is it that everybody hears more case of "missing" package that went through USPS than either Fedex, UPS or even DHL?
Or even better, why is it that USPS has to have a "Delivery Confirmation" in order to make sure your package actually gets through? Fedex and UPS doesn't charge extra for those, they ARE paid to make sure it gets through. I'm sure you can get it for free online but it sounds to me that it's just another way of conforting the customers for USPS.
