Better idea: Don't put wildly expensive things in your checked bags.
I'd wager most of those items are pre-TSA anyway as they have a pattern of stealing things. Years ago I visited the Microsoft employee store in Redmond where you could buy Xbox games for super cheap. They actually had a sign at the register warning people not to put them in checked bags because they disappeared.

The latter actually handle your bags a lot more than the former (and do so in places which are not monitored with security cameras).
- kortilla 6y agoIt’s possible, but there is literally no reason for an airline baggage handler to open a bag. They would need a lot of time alone with the bags to dig through each one looking for valuables without being caught. TSA gets the advantage of seeing inside of the bags on a screen to know which ones to “pull for more inspection”.
