I'm about to sell a couple of new routers I don't have use for on ebay and I had a question of whether you guys ship to P.O boxes or not when you put up an auction.
I can't help noticing that a lot of auctions specify that they won't ship to P.O boxes but I can't think of a reason why.

Any insight would be great?

Won't ship to a PO Box. It's too easy to use a fake identity to rent one of them.

Plus the only way you can ship to a P.O. Box is via the mail, you can't send it via UPS or FedEx then and I prefer to be able to actually track stuff that I ship.

Only US Mail delivers to PO Boxes


FedEx, UPS, DHL, doesn't


Maybe seller uses one of those companies

I see. I wonder whether Paypal endorses P.O box addresses to be 'confirmed'.
