Sod's law

Sold an item (£400+) last Friday night - buyer (57 item 100% f/b) mailed me on Monday to say he'd exceeded his PP limit but was sorting it; I mail back 'No problem'.
This morning I get an instant PP payment - but another person's name and address and it's........................an unconfirmed address! :eek:
It is in my listings, in large and very clear terms, that I will not despatch to an unconfirmed PP address - I've mailed the buyer, pointing this out, no reply as yet. I've also pulled his contact details and rung, no reply.
Bad news is I'm going away early Monday morning and need to book a courier - my cousin has agreed to deal with the courier, but I did my last listing allowing, as I thought, loads of time to sort everything out!
As the title of the thread says, 'Sod's Law'!

I only exist in my own mind - if you can see, hear or read me, you are a product of my imagination.
