No - if you ship to a business address using your Fedex 
account they do not impose such a limit.  I can't speak 
for residential shipments, ut I have shipped radios in the 
$700 to $100 range and insured them for the full amount 
with Federal Express.

I don't know where people are being told these limits but it has not 
happened to me at all.
