As a buyer, do you still have Buyer Protection if you state "no address needed"? My case looks like this. I would like to buy goods from a German seller that should be delivered to my German address. However, this is my secondary address (parents' address), which I only visit occasionally. My main residence is in Spain and my Paypal account is also Spanish. Since the goods are quite expensive, I wanted to play it safe with Paypal, as I thought I had Buyer Protection with it. However, I could not enter a German address with PayPal when paying. There is no selection for "Country" and it is mandatory to select a Spanish region, so this field cannot be left blank. That's why I asked myself whether I also have Buyer Protection if I didn't specify the delivery address with Paypal, since the seller in Germany had already received the German delivery address when ordering. During the PayPal checkout process, you can also specify 'no address needed'. Is this a way without losing purchase protection? I know that conversely the sellers will lose their Seller Protection if they ship to an address other than that specified in PayPal or if none is specified. But regarding buyer protection I couldn't find anything about the shipping address and I read the terms and conditions in English, German and Spanish. They seem to be identical everywhere. Thank you for your help!
