Hi all. Have sold an item roughly valued at £130. Buyer shows as a PO Box in Florida. Has and has left great feedback but still a little worried of sending unprotected to the states.

Question :

Does Royal Mail offer a tracked service that I can use to send to a PO Box in the States that will offer insurance up to £130 and PayPal protection if it goes tits up ?

I've been Googling but it seems a bit of a minefield .... I've also messaged the buyer asking if at all possible could he supply a proper postal address.

PO boxes are very common in the US as lots of addresses are rural and don't have mail delivery like we do. As long as the address is verified in Paypal it should be fine.

Did you not offer it through the global shipping program? You'd only have to ship it to the UK address then
