I would see it that way too. The shipment should be insured, and the buyer could be asked to pay that in the shipping charges. If this were two people who were strangers that is how it should be. If the seller didnt insure I wouldn't think that is the buyer's fault, the seller implies in the sale that he will get the goods to the buyer.
I will say though that it wouldn't be surprising for the package to show up. I had a letter show up in my mail a year after it was mailed once, and my mother had one that was lost in some mail warehouse for several years arrive once it was found, too.
