For eBay transactions, an extra charge for insurance is not permitted. Most eBay transactions paid using one of the eBay approved payment methods (which includes PayPal), are eligible for eBay Buyer Protection.

PayPal payments for most eBay items are also eligible for PayPal's Buyer Protection.

The eBay insurance policy is at the following link...

ebay buyers don't need insurance because they have Paypal.  If the parcel arrives and it's broken, then it is considered to be "Not as Described" and you file an ebay dispute on that basis.
