Paypal help

I sold something on another board yesterday to someone i do not know and to a board i rarely visit. The item sold for £127 and the buyer used paypal to pay me.

Now..........although the buyer is "verified" there is no address linked to his account:

"We have no delivery address on file. "

The transaction details state:

Seller Protection:
Not Eligible

and the payment type was listed as

Payment Owed

I am planning on sending the parcel Royal Mail Special Delivery, adaquate insurance, trackable etc, but does anyone have any concerns about this transaction, i really don't want a chargeback from a dodgy buyer!!!

    This would be a personal payment so you dont get any fees deducted. These are pretty safe as they cannot claim that the item was not received. I would still use SD due to the value of the item though.

    or you could contact the buyer and ask them to add their address to paypal
