I sold 3 DVD sets to a buyer in South Africa. I don't believe I've ever shipped anything to that country before. I have a few questions:
1. The buyer is brand new, no feedback, and says that Paypal doesn't work in his country. He wants to send me an Amex gift check. Does this sound like a good option? Does Paypal not work in South Africa?
2. I thought the only way I could ship to him with tracking would be to use Global Express. The package is about 2.5 pounds and the USPS website says it will be $42 to ship. The site says it will take 3-5 days to arrive. Now he's telling me my shipping estimate is too high. What do you all think?
Many thanks everyone!
