I recently purchased an item online and saw the option to add Route Shipping Protection at checkout, so I decided to try it out for peace of mind. Thankfully, my package arrived safely and on time without any issues, so I didn’t end up needing to use the protection. While I appreciated the extra security it offered, I did notice the charge was added automatically, which might catch some people off guard. Overall, I didn’t mind paying a little extra just in case something went wrong, but if your order isn’t high-value or you trust the seller’s support, you might not need it.
