Poor Kosmo. Sad
Don't send him any packages unless you message him first. His Post Office was burned down earlier this week.
Now this! >>>

ATHENS, Greece — Masked rioters set fire Saturday evening to the offices of a credit data company in Athens, continuing protests that have raged across Greece for two weeks.
Earlier Saturday, protesters attacked a city-sponsored Christmas tree in central Athens, tossing garbage and hanging trash bags from its branches before clashing with riot police.

I sent a package to Kosmo USPS Registered Mail. What advantage does this parcel have vs. Regular International First Class, as far as getting delivered to him?
And who has to initiate the claim if it never gets delivered to him>? Sender....receiver?

Registered mail is trackable, and is kept under lock and key when not in transit.

Usually the sender can initiate a claim, but with international shipments, its a bit murky

With the registered package I sent from the UK to the Ukraine I initiated the claim. It got lost somewhere after arriving in Ukraine, but I consider it part of my duty as a seller (unlike some eBay sellers who state in the listing that the buyer always has to make claims when packages go missing).
