Post by: BigusSchmuck on October 05, 2012, 12:17:03 PM
Since when do people not ship to PO Boxes on Ebay?

Lame. I have never had that problem before. Oh well, I guess it isn't something to cry about, its not like I really want to spend $80 on New Adventure Island or anything.

I'm careful when shipping large packages to PO Boxes and universities so that I don't get screwed over when the package isn't claimed and I'm out shipping for a refused package.  Which I get back 2 months or more, in rough shape from being moved so much.  I normally make them pay for insurance and tracking and refuse refund if the tracking shows they were notified. 

more likely however as the professor said, they are using UPS to ship.

Its a personal choice the seller is making.  No reason for that to make him ugly or shady.   We dont know the reasons behind it, and I am sure there is one.

Well he is charging $80 for New Adventure Island that has a custom case. I just don't think I want to pay that much for that game.

Maybe this is a blessing in disguise? I say, thank this seller for his restrictive shipping policies. (http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgs.png)
