Mai Kai decanter and postal insurance: loss or not? - Collecting Tiki

Minty, minty fresh. I had it insured. It came to me not broken, but the corner crushed on the box and the cork broken off and it had leaked and the label was soaked, the hang tag booklet was soaked. What do I do? A great part of the value was it being "perfect." I have never worked on the insurance on an item at the PO. What do they do? I want the decanter, I just don't feel it is at the value I paid any longer. Do they take the item? What's the deal and do you think I should collect the insurance...
