post office delivery we cannot get our mail delivered yet you wont except box /street address why?

[sirhc62]

Yes, this has happened to me many times whereby the Seller won't send to a PO Box. It's so annoying as my street address is deceiving and sometimes hard to find. I've had many items go missing when sent to my situational address. I've asked the Sellers if they would make an exception and none of them do. I have to find someone who will use Aus Post rather than couriers.

eBay doesn't sell anything nor post anything.

Other people advertise on the eBay site and it is up to each individual seller.

Many sellers use couriers that don't deliver to Post boxes.

You can ask your local PO if they will accept deliveries for you and use their street address.

You would need to ask the seller in question, rather than members on the forum who do not decide for them

Have you asked the seller if they are willing (or even can) make an exception?

[sirhc62]

I've asked sellers in the past, to no avail. Must be the courier thing......

Then you already know the answer to your question.

a lot of sellers use couriers and not Australia Post

[rusl9565-byvuld]

yes i get that but the address is on there as well

[davewil1964]

@rusl - use the address only then. The PO Box no probably trumps the house address. It's mostly automated, so 'PO Box' would trigger flags.
