Sold a card today and the buyer paid immediately. When I researched the feedback on the buyer, it says they are from China. I don't do international shipping. The shipping address and who it is addressed to on my shipping label isn't addressed to a person. It's a pretty funky address to somewhere in Portland, OR. Is this pretty typical? Should I be worried about the buyer saying they didn't receive the card? Is this being sent to the buyers' comc account?

The buyer has perfect feedback as well.

If it's a COMC account it would state the users COMC username.

Most likely its being shipped to a service that acts as a third party for international shipping. They repackage your shipment most likely and charge the buyer a premium.

Make sure the buyer hasn't left funky instructions to you.

As long as it's the confirmed paypal shipping address you should be good when tracking shows delivered.

This is very commonly done to get around those who do not ship internationally.

Check in PayPal see if seller protection shield is activated and if so ship on good man.

Yea, that's just the global shipping program address in OR.

Was confused at first too a few weeks back when I sold to an Australian, pretty cool program tbh.

I sold a card a couple weeks ago to a person from China. When I looked at the shipping info on PayPal, it was to Oregon also. I shipped the card out the day after he paid, but I had misplaced the receipt with tracking number. Guy had 11 feedback and messaged me 20 times a day for two days and then left me a negative for not posting the tracking number fast enough for him, even though the card was shipped right away, and I told him that. Now I have a feedback of 2,200 with 1 negative. He said he would change the feedback when card arrived, but then he said he didn't know how to do it, so I was stuck with the negative!

I have shipped through eBay's GSP a couple of times and it makes it so easy. The downside is that once the card has been received at eBay's local shipping location it is marked as delivered and I don't remember there being any additional tracking information once it ships out internationally.
