Airsure question

I'm selling an item on ebay which I expect to sell for £50-£100 (potentially it could go higher. I think that's unlikely, but I could be wrong). I have the auction set to UK only but have just received a question asking if I would send to Finland. I've looked on the Royal Mail website and the best option for postage would seem to be Airsure with enhanced compensation, but at the bottom of the page it says "Airsure items are electronically tracked to their destination, but are not signed for on delivery." Would that be a problem for paypal? Is delivery confirmation ok? Or would they need to see a signature as well?

Thanks in advance for any help :)

    Thanks, but with SD you can see the signature (hopefully) whereas with Airsure you don't. I want to be sure that that won't be a problem.

    I's not. It shows proof of delivery, which is what paypal require.

    Up to £150 online proof of delivery is all that is required, however if it goes above £150 then a signature is required for paypal protection.

    Just make sure it is n't phone though as they are not covered over £39 going overseas with RM
