Re: USA Only auction help

I will check USPS and see. That is an example,above, of separate companies that do the same,for a fee, which I am sure would negate any need based on fees
I point it out,as I look, so you will in fact see it exists
They give you verified address, where as the Post office only gives a PO box address, which would be MOOT to 90% of the dealers if your paypal story is on point.
Now, I am not encouraging fraud or misrepresenting oneself, but
" Hi, I am over Seas for a undetermined period and am using a PO Box in "insert city and state name here"until I get back to the US. My paypal is tied to my current address here in "Insert city and country name here" for ease of money transfere and to lessen any complications that would arise with local banking services when I transfer funds to withdrawn from Paypal.
Where as I do intend to pay for the auction at auctions end, I wanted to make sure my particular situation would not give concern since My address is in the US and my paypal account showed "City and country name here"
If this is a problem,let me know and I will continue looking for my card in other auctions
Thanks
Now that should get through most hoops. Friendly,courteous,up front and too the point with a simple explanation.

Ok here it is
1st you read, buy online,get your address, and send yourself mail,have people in the USA send you a piece or 2
PO Box Service
Get your mail when and where you want it with a secure Post Office Box.
Get your mail when and where you want it.
Many customers value the privacy, security, and flexibility of a Post Officeâ„¢ Box:
It’s easy to find. Search by address or ZIP Code for a PO Box near you. It shows available sizes and fees for a location near you.
It’s fast. Mail typically arrives faster at a PO Box than at a residential or business address.
It’s private. Use your PO Box address for selected contacts and transactions.
It’s affordable. Fees for a six-month term start as low as $10. Find the fees near you.
It’s permanent. You can move around, but your PO Box address stays the same.
It’s good business. Open PO Boxes in multiple cities and expand your business.
And it’s convenient. Choose a location close to work or home—whatever fits your needs. Select Post Offices have extended business hours and/or 24-hour lobby access. Search and pay online now.
Then you sign up for the next service
https://moversguide.usps.com/icoa/f...E690954_k5EA82067-450A-E48B-9D5A-8C6E2936087E
That site allows you to set a forward,assign a credit card for fees and allows 6 months of forwarding. After 6 months, sign up for another 6 months,
At the end of the 2nd 6 months, a year later. Cancel your service and resubscribe and do it again.
Now, the fee is 10.00 a month for a small PO box.
The fee for forwarding is based on from that mail box, to your postal office in Australia or where ever,and the weight of the package.
Nothing else. No different than a 3rd party doing it for you now, just safer ( No slight on those whom have helped, just trying to show people how it can be done and empower then)
I hope I have helped.
I have learned many things in my lengthy stay on this earth, most of them no-good, some of them very useful
Interesting concept...any idea how much it costs and are there additional charges to redirecting it? If it's expensive, any savings are negated by the additional costs of having one.
I suppose the other issue with that is that some sellers only send to verified addresses on Paypal, and being Australia, we can only have a registered address.
