What you asking would be a scammers dream, are you a scammer?
Of course you can't, there is no way paypal would leave your customers unprotected.0 -

This has nothing to do with scamming, As long as buyers pay for named goods they have all the usual protection, even if they state , for instance, they are buying 'garden tools' when in fact it is something different. If seller cannot prove delivery of a parcel then buyer gets their money back.
OP is merely trying to sell without disclosing their address , which for a business is of course illegal. However for adult items that are just sent, it seems wise for a seller who perhaps has a family , to want to remain anonymous rather than have 'buyers' turn up at the door expecting more.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

well, not disgusting but it certainly fits the pattern of selling 'used' items to those who want them.
OP you might be better off trying to find a forum or facebook group or something similar that specialise in this as you may find other people who already do it and can advise you.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

Supply and demand. If some nutter is willing to pay then whose to say why you should or should not take advantage.
There is a big risk with paypal though. Bank transfer instead? A bank wont dilvulge your info and no chargebacks.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0 -
If someone is determined to find your details then they will. If the OP is going down this route then as Soolin says they need to find out from someone who has already done this, what precautions to take. Personally I think that a PO Box for everything would be the first step. Just in case someone becomes a bit too much of a fan of you.0
