Already shipped to unconfirmed address on PayPal / eBay. Am I screwed?

Question

I sold an Apple Macbook laptop on eBay for $1300. The buyer was from Israel and I got the shipping cost from the USPS office and told him and he agreed to pay it so I figured why not. He payed using PayPal and the money is currently in my bank account. I just realized the dangers of shipping to an unconfirmed address and have a great fear that I am now screwed and he is going to give me a chargeback and I am going to lose my $1300 and Macbook. Is there anything I can do right now? The package is already on its way. I can take my money out of the bank and cancel my credit cards but PayPal will probably send creditors to my house or something. I am ENRAGED that this can even happen because in my hands I have the USPS Insured Mail receipt, the Customs and Dispatch note stamped and the receipt for paid shipping from the office which is plenty of proof that I sent the item. Do you guys think I am still screwed? What can

Answer 1

having an "unconfirmed" address on PayPal just means that the address that you shipped it to is not the same as the credit card billing address; it does not mean you're screwed; i always use a different address for shipping (because my driveway has gates), but i am still a good customer :)

Answer 2

I agree with Kuppcake.  I buy and sell to and from Israel on E*Bay frequently...I'm Jewish and I buy & sell coins, bills, shirts, Ahava skin care products and religious items for myself & friends all the time.  I can honestly say I have never run into a problem from Israel...even from unconfirmed addresses.

An unconfirmed address merely means that the end user hasn't gone through a few menial steps on PayPal to confirm it.  It's really not much of a big deal.  I really don't think you'll have anything to worry about.

If you were shipping to Russia, China or Nigeria, then I think you should worry because they're notorious havens for fraud.
