OK so I have a miami skybox, and Im trying to order something and have it delivered there. the seller says that they deliver to the USA, but yet everytime i try to order it says

This seller has set buyer requirements for this item and only sells to buyers who meet those requirements.

You are unable to bid on or buy this item because:

You are registered in a country to which the seller doesn't ship.

Note: If you are still interested in bidding on or buying this item, you may contact the seller and ask that they exempt you from any buyer requirements.

everything corresponds, the address on ebay and paypal are the miami address. i do have the trinidad address registered aswell but my miami address is the primary

He is registered with auctiva. He is also picking up your ip address. It has happened to me a couple times. Very rare though. Better forget it. Too much headache.

You are registered in Trinidad and Tobago

If you change your registered address to one in the USA, you will get through

what he said specifically you're ebay account, but not possible as you would have give a correlating us phone number specific to the zip code, even if you are successful it would still be fraud.

U need to have a VERIFIED PAYPAL address. Else they won't ship to you. Another effective but expensive way is to make a US money order and mail it to the seller.

You're welcome what u acn do is email them and ask if they can ship to your address, also try buying from Power Sellers or sellers with very good ratings an feedback :idea:

it's nothing about having a verified paypal address.

your ebay account is registered to T&T - that's the problem.

Contact him directly and pay via Paypal.

equipped2ripp · Postby **equipped2ripp** » July 6th, 2009, 3:16 am

^ can't do that unless you have a bank account linked to the PayPal account.

janfar · Postby **janfar** » July 6th, 2009, 3:38 am

My creditcard is linked straight to my PayPal. Isnt that the was its doen via Ebay.

equipped2ripp · Postby **equipped2ripp** » July 6th, 2009, 5:03 am

yeah but if you contact the seller, they would give you their email address to send the funds directly... and you can't do that unless you have a bank account linked to the paypal account (if i'm not mistaken).

just explain your situation to the seller and they would be more than happy to help you out.

Ok, well thats what I did when i purchased some stuff from Japan. He just gave me his PayPal account name and I transferred the money.

That's what I was informed from a seller on ebay when attempting to purchase an item from him.

If u still dont understand, what I meant to say is that when u sign up for pay pal, u need a credit card. that credit u use to register your account needs to have a valid billing address. Since we are in Trinidad & Tobago, the credit card's billing address is in Trinidad & Tobago & not the US. PayPal is an American company. They don't confirm addresses in Trinidad & Tobago.

Hope that helped to clear the air.

Note: my intention here isn't to argue with anyone here, merey to help clarify the situation at hand :idea:
