What kind of ID you have?

You would have to collect unless you pay mail forwarding service.

PO boxes aren’t really that good for stealth accounts if they are in individual names

Mailhire boxes can work if you open them in the business name and then have the business name on the eBay or PayPal so that the names match for delivery

What are you trying to do exactly?

Boxes are great for returns and are near worthless for anything else.

I use a Royal Mail PO BOX under my company name I think we pay monthly about £35 I think all though I can’t remember exactly and I have the mail forwarded to our business address.

Where currently using this PO BOX address with about 30+ accounts any returns etc are addressed to the individual eBay account name and the PO BOX address remains the same.

Been doing this for 2 years now without any issues.

In my stealth I have not my real name, when I go to the PO BOX I have to show the ID of the stealth and this doesn’t exist. I think PO Box would not be required for the stealth as James said. Sometimes I have return request for expensive goods. I will give address of my friend is best I think.

The only time you need one really is if your selling high value items that you need to get returned. Even then there are other ways to go about getting the item returned though

That’s why you have the mail forwarded to you and do not collect.

Well Royal Mail offer you options for PO BOX 1. You collect your mail which costs less 2. Any mail received via your PO BOX address is forwarded to your address automatically which costs more but not to much.

I would suggest contacting Royal Mail in relation to opening a PO BOX address so that they can provide you the necessary info

There are quite a few other providers that offer a very similar service. It can work a treat, just have a little search and see what whats best for you
