eBay offer -valuable item- buyer using freight forwarding address

Lorian

I have a valuable item listed on eBay - unusual for me.

I've had a reasonable offer made by a buyer in China but the shipping address looks to be a UK freight forwarding service.

I would be sending via RM special delivery. Any pitfalls I should be aware of if I accept the offer?

It will likely sell overseas in any case

There’s a very recent thread about the same thing. There is no issue at all with this you just need tracking to the UK address. 

EDIT found it, have a read of this https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6432189/uk-address-is-aramex-ltd-buyer-is-in-saudi-arabia#latest

Thank you Soolin

I think you need to check the uk address is the same as the one the buyer uses at ebay checkout though.
Not just some address they send you via a message.

That is correct, but there’s no indication that the address is anything other than the shipping address supplied by eBay.
