I have had a couple of transactions, where the buyer's address on eBay was no good. Ebay covered me, as I used the address THEY PROVIDED.
Doing things outside eBay's system opens you up for claims: "I never got it", etc. Delivery confirmation only confirms it delivered at the address on your label.
Agreed but it's still up to the sender to choose the proper package type. You'll need a scale to determine if the package is 'First Class' or not and 'peel n stick' labels are nice to have as well. If your only selling 1 or 2 items a month it may not be worth printing labels at home, even with the discount you still need to buy a scale, labels and printer ink.
