Buyer has two different addresses.

Sold an item on ebay and the buyer has a different address for paypal and ebay.

Which address do I send it to? I can only dispatch items in the weekend and he hasn't bothered replying to me, if I do not get a reply by tomorrow, he'll have to wait another week.

    To be covered by paypal protection you must send to the paypal confirmed address.

    is the paypal one confirmed? if it is then send to that so you have your backup if it goes missing, if it isn't then send one last email to the buyer stating you won't send out until you have confirmation from them which address to send to and that you can only post on saturdays? Good luck

    I wish I read this before I went to the postoffice. I just sent a magazine to a guy. He insisted I use his ebay address in Canada. even though it was unconfirmed instead of his paypal address in USA. Hmmm.... I guess I just have to wait and see what happens.
    I learn something new everyday.

    His paypal account is verified but my paypal account is not so I don't think I'm entitled to protection anyway.

    I'll prob have to wait for him to reply, too risky sending off an item that might go to the wrong place.

    Both his ebay and paypal addresses have his name.
