good price for mail box service £47 for 3 months - is that a good price???
 

Hi, found a local business centre which can provide a mail box service.

The price they have given is £47 for 3 months with 38 pounds deposit.

Is that price any good? they wont sign for items which does not concern me as collection card can be left.

thanks.


note i opened up an ebay account already, hit my £750 limit in 1 day.
£44 items sold so reached limit rather quickly. account was verified with 2 positive feedback and opened only a week back. therefore another account is required. start of month and already hit limit:nono:

congratulations on your quick score with hitting the limits so soon!
The price sounds comparable with what I have found fwiw.
Are you using a few of these companies for different stealth accounts?

That is a lot of money to be putting though a new EB and I assume also a new PP account.

You may run into issues.

It would be better off to spread your sales across more accounts.

if can you pick up from there, it sounds ok. As the kicker on cheaper boxes that are non-local are the forwarding charges.

maximise the address, you can make 2 accs with one address
one with business name and no box number
one with real surname and box number

Bit pricey. Do they offer enough for your needs?
Is that deposit refundable?

That price for 3 months is reasonable - just talking about the po box only - it works well for all business operation

Am I the only one who doesn't use PO Boxes for returns, but random addresses?

Re: good price for mail box service £47 for 3 months - is that a good price???
 

I dabble with po boxes, variation of addresses AND random addresses (for the latter, I cbf'ed about returns :d )

Re: good price for mail box service £47 for 3 months - is that a good price???
 

I use accessible addresses.

Tin foil hat means no nasty emails from ebay with suspension notices..

Works well for me.


Changing addresses by adding non-existent apartments numbers now fails.

With the checks, correct address info is preferable for me.

Random as in picked random of course. Address is real naturally.

I don't dabble with apartment numbers :)
