Say it's worth $100 and you insure it and it gets damaged or lost.

Enjoy your $100.

yeah, but he's the seller...he can explain this situation to the buyer, and tell him that if it gets lost he'll only be able to reimburse the guy $100. If the buyer still agrees, it costs the seller NOTHING, and saves the guy on taxes.

Do it.

Yeah but the seller initiates the insurance and assumes the responsibility of delivering it.

if he explains the situation to the buyer, the buyer would understand that only $100 would be reimbursed in the case of loss.
