I recently opened a store on BigCartel, to sell a few charms in a "preorder" setting, where customers are at all times told, the items will be printed and shipped all together and at the same time, in a few days after the purchase. Everything was going fine until yesterday when Paypal started putting all new purchases on hold, asking me i provide a trusted carrier to control if the shipments have been sent to the customers or not. I understand the need of security within a community but my problems are two: 1. The money provided is for creating and later sending the merchandise, the customers know and have agreed to wait for the merchandise to be done. If a problem were to arise, I would have no trouble giving them their money back, but I need it first in order to ship the content. 2. There aren't even any "trusted shipping places" in my country where I could go to, in the case I could pay for the articles' shipping in the first place. It is strange to me the national mail office isn't listed as trusted. Please I need help on how to solve this, I do not want all these customers to loose their merchandise. These aren't huge amounts of money, most of the money will go to shipping expenses.
