APO/FPO shipping - any issues?

LarkinCollector

Has anyone had any experience with shipping to APO/FPO (military base) addresses? Any issues with chargebacks/returns/etc?

My eBay settings currently block them along with most foreign countries, but I received an offer via eBay messaging. I'm thinking of removing that restriction from my listings, but wanted to find out if it's worth it risk-wise.

It usually works out OK. I have never had a problem. The real hassle is that you may have to wait in line and fill out a few forms if it is going to a base outside the US.

I don't ship to them anymore mostly for the hassle of having to stand in line at the Post Office. If you have time for that, then it is OK.

I've never had any problems and the automatically generated eBay labels have worked fine for me in the past.

Thanks for the responses! I'll go ahead and open it for at least this listing and see how it goes.
