    Also as the item is over £41 you should be sending by special delivery to get the correct level of insurance.
    Royal Mail will only allow you to claim back what the item actually cost up to a maximum of what you have sold it for. So if the OP paid less than £41 for then using special delivery is less economical.

    They gave up with confirmed addresses a few years back, my one, registered with paypal for 10+ years almost always shows as unconfirmed.


    Thats good to know Soolin (that even you as an established ebayer can have an unconfirmed address).

    Maybe its the type of item i am selling that makes the sale not eligible for seller protection.

    Im going to go ahead and post it but will make sure that I keep the documentation just incase anything does come of it.

    Sorry to ask another question but can anyone tell me how long the buyer has to request their money back via chargeback or open a SNAD ?

    Thanks all.
    The loopy one has gone :j

    45 days for a basic paypal claim and up to 180 days for a full chargeback via a credit card company or bank.
