EBAY sale to a Keystore. Is this safe or is it a scam.

Options
Hello
I have just sold a phone on Ebay and the buyer's address is to a Keystore. Is it safe for me to post the phone or is it a scam as the buyer has not provided a home address?
Thanks in advance

    AS long as that is the address given by ebay you are fine, goods do not have to go to a 'private' address. Use all sensible precautions though just as you would for any other sale, make notes of any identifying numbers with phone, send safely and insured. Just double check that the postage you use can go to a keystore address .

    Thanks Soolin. I googled it (click and Collect Ebay) and looked on street view and am happy now. I have not used click and collect as a buyer nor til now had a buyer use it to buy from me. Thanks again
