Thanks for your another reply, but it makes me more confused. So, is it safe to ship my item to this address of freight forwarding company or not? If this shipment is not covered by seller protection, I need to cancel/refund this transaction, so please help me one more time.  Thank you! ... View more

Thanks for quick reply. Please allow me one more question. "In your current situation, if you shipped to a freight forwarder, eBay money back guarantee does not cover buyer if this is an eBay sale and if the freight forwarder's address is on the PayPal payment and you shipped it there with tracking and with signature confirmation if the order is over $750, you should be covered for item not received under PayPal seller protection."   This means, as long as I ship the item to the address shown in Paypal (which means the address automatically shown when I print the shipping lable in Ebay), the buyer CANNOT make a claim (such as he does not receive the item, item is defective, etc.), which means I will be safe to ship.  Am I correct?    Also, my item is $300, less than $750.  Do I need to ship this item along with the signature confirmation and/or the insurance?    Thanks for your answer in advance! ...

Shipping to Freight Forwarding companies?

Hello, I just sold one item which is around $300, and received the payment instantly. The address in Ebay/Paypal is:   <removed>   I googled this address, because the buyer information says he is at Oman, and found that this address is that of the freight forwarding company.   I never sold the items to international buyers, so hope to ask that it is safe to ship to freight forwarding companies. For example, I am worrying if the buyer would claim that he does not receive the item, the item is damaged, or else.   I am trying to be careful because of my one experience with Buyer protection (despite the case was U.S. address, not freight forwarding). Previously, a buyer claimed that he received the defective item and, although I clarified no returns in product description, the Ebay forced me to give a full refund to the buyer.   I do not want the same thing happens in this case.   Please let me know I would be covered by seller protection, even if the case this international buyer would claim that he does not receive the item. Thank you. ... View more
