    I'm not too sure the French can confirm their addresses with paypal.

    We send to France fairly often without any problems.
    For the value of your items I would only send using Airsure.

    What is the feedback like on your buyer?

    I remember reading somewhere on here about countries that can't confirm these details to :confused:

    Would Airsure be a lot more expensive though ? And this still wouldn't cover me if they decided to do a chargeback ? :confused:

    On a 50g parcel deeley, International signed for would be around £5.83, airsure would be around £6.83. including the extra insurance upto £500.

    As for the charge back question, if the address is unconfirmed then I don't think you would win any charge back, but at least if they claim it's not been delivered you will be covered by RM's insurance.

    How about getting them to pay by bank transfer? They can't do a chargeback then. If you give them your IBAN and BIC codes they should be able to do it easily. Check though with you bank for any (hidden) charges for doing this!

    Ultimately the decision is yours as to post or not. Go with your first instincts, they are usually right!
