Three months is long enough to say it's gone... Sorry to hear it. For future mailings, are you familiar with the EMS system? Some countries call it 'Express Mail.' It's just a bit more than the cost of USPS but it gets a tracking number so you can trace it if it goes missing.
For what it's worth, DeBeer's ships all it's regular diamond shipments via regular USPS, unmarked other than addresses for sender and return (the return doesn't say DeBeers.) They claim that they only loose about one package every few years of sending thousands per year, and the postage savings make it cost effective.
