NON-US VERIFIED, what exactly does this mean??

Recently sold something on ebay for little over $1k.

The buyer made immediate payment.

It shows ok to ship with spp eligible, confirmed us address.

Only problem is that it shows non-us verified payment.

Should I be worried?

I have the same situation, only for less money.  Address is 'confirmed', transaction is 'seller protection eligible', but the buyer has been identified as 'Non-US -Verified' which is a red flag and cause for concern.  Obvious question - if I ship, what is the risk?  Should I refund the payment and not ship the item?

I did some research, and some one mentioned that it is verified, just

outside of us funds.  As far as shipping address being confirmed, it's odd.

The buyer's address shows another shipping company that fowards packages to overseas.

Anybody with actual experience here?

bluesnickers and pheelix-

 

Welcome to the boards!

 

You bring up some good questions as far as Seller Protection and international customers.  As bluesnickers discovered, non-us verified does, in fact, just mean that they're a non-us account that is verified.  This in and of itself isn't a cause for concern, and if it's eligible for SPP, you send it to the address listed in the transaction details, have tracking that can be verified online and signature confirmation over $250 US, then you should be good.

 

The biggest problem that I can see, and it might even be nothing, is that it's going to a reshipment facility.  Not controlling where the item winds up is concerning because if the recipient doesn't receive their item, it opens you up to a dispute. Now having your tracking show delivery to the address we provide would more than likely cover you, but I feel there might be a higher risk of a dispute being filed in the first place.

 

My two cents anyway.

Your answer seems to be very vague.  It should be either I'm covered under spp or not covered.

Yes, the buyer might not get the package due to the third shiping company which I have nothing to do with and

still file a dispute.  But if I show the tracking number and signiture confirmation, why wouldn't I be covered?

I don't know why I'm "more than likely cover you."

Lastly, people go though paypal even that means paying 4% fee because we, seller want to be protected.

Either don't charge me 4% or tell me now if I'm not covered so I can give the guy refund.
