Paypal shipping question

I've noticed something. Every time I have received an item sent via Paypal shipping, I have never had to sign for the item. Is this normal?

Yes. As long as the shipper doesn't use signature confirmation. --jerry

If it doesn't have signature confirmation, then yes. If it does have SC, your local postal employee isn't doing his job, and you/the seller aren't getting what was paid for.

Only if the item is less than $250.00.

If it is sent with just Insurance and/or Delivery Confirmation, you won't have to. If it's sent with Signature Confirmation, you will. What you're telling me is you're buying things with a value of under $250, because that's when PayPal needs Signature Confirmation.

Signature is required when delivery confirmation is purchased (required by paypal for items $250 and up to be eligible for seller protection). Note that seller can buy signature confirmation for any item shipped. Also if signature confirmation is not purchased but insurance is purchased, mailman may or may not ask for signature depending on whether or not he scans the item and the scan requires insurance signature based on value.

Paypal shipping labels: When insurance and delivery confirmation are both purchased only the word "INSURED" will appear on the paypal label. Unless the mailman scans the item he won't know a signature is required. A smart seller will add a "signature required" stamp or sticker to these shipments.
