greyhound lost my baggage, my bag had $6,000 worth of stuff in it. how much will they reimburse me?

Answer 1

Why in the world would you check a bag with $6,000 worth of items in it? Especially without first procurring insurance on it?

You are out the money, as the liability is indeed $250.
You probably won't be able to take legal action either, unless you can PROVE your baggage contents were worth that, and even then, chances are slim, as you chose not to further insure it.

Please learn from this mistake. If it's that valuable, keep it in your hands! (i.e. carry on)

Answer 2

$250

The maximum liability to Greyhound is $250.00 for all baggage checked (not including items checked as overweight, oversized and or excess baggage) per adult ticket and $125.00 per child's ticket. Neither Greyhound nor other participating bus carriers are responsible for the loss of or damage to baggage in excess of the value allowances. Greyhound will only be responsible to the extent of the actual loss or damage sustained based on the actual baggage at the time and place of checking, and will NOT accept any liability for unchecked baggage.

Answer 3

If I were you, I'd sue the company. You'll be a millionaire in a heartbeat.
