Seems to me that at the time of acceptance they should say "Doesn't meet our packaging requirements, can't insure, ship as is at your own risk, or re-package it." If they do in fact accept it, and insure it, then they are saying it passes their requirements, and therefore they accept responsibility. I'm not an attorney and don't even play one on the radio, so whatta I know. I know they got deeper pockets than the rest of us, but I'd guess a good attorney could get them to pay up, and it would probably only take a letter. Might cost you more than it's worth, however, which is what most claim denials are all about anyway.
