Shipping my Ebay Purchase to US Address

[transforminator]

Hey guys,

I'm new to PayPal and since many of you do use eBay I was hoping somebody could answer this question for me before I place a bid for an item.

Can I pay for an item using my Canadian PayPal account and have it shipped to a US Address? I am able to add my US address on eBay but not on PayPal for security purposes I guess. Any insights?

Thanks!

just make sure that you message (by ebay) the person that you win your article from and specify the adress you want the item shipped...

also it would be a good thing to mention the adress in question in the note section of paypal when your paying..

as for a confirmation from the seller that the item will be sent to the adress you want

hope that helps !

Yeah the seller said it was fine since the funds would convert from CAD to USD. Would simply changing my shipping address on eBay be enough?

Yes, n like the other guy said make a note in ur paypal patment reminding him to ship to us, but shouldbe okay since he will hv to pay extra to ship to canada anyways so i doubt he will make that mistake lol

Depends on the seller... some won't as coverage can be a pain(lost iteam mail) in not covering it (seller) due to the fact its not going to the regestered address (Paypal) so some sellers wont take the risk.
