Does sellers responsibility end at FedEx?

Heavy expensive cd player sold with buyer responsible for shipping. If buyer wants ground and no insurance, am I still responsible for anything if mishaps ensue?

I offered to pay insurance and an additional $50 toward 3 day air. They said ship it quick and cheap. It's packed in original box and foam and that box is in a second outer box. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks!

Thanks Mofi, you are right.

No the seller's responsibility doesn't end at FedEx, as Viridian clearly states. Well said Viridian.

Thank you for the replies. I am seller. I have not bought or sold equipment for a long time. I searched hi and low on site to find clarity on this. I wanted a quick answer as i want to provide buyer with fast service. But in the end, I realized I do not want to be the buyer or seller on any transaction that does not use the best and most appropriate shipping means and precautions.

seller opted out in writing, it's not your responsibility.
if any dispute, you show written communication and keep all funds.
peace.

Well said, and good move. Another buyer will always come along.
