    You could use it to post and receive items from most shops and private sellers, when posting you just need to drop it your selected Motel, for receiving you collect it from your selected Motel, if you do not collect within 48 from the time they store it on the locker they will charge you another stay.

    Parcels that do not fit in Parcel Motel need to be collected from the depot, you need to pay extra depending on the sizes.

    I think on ebay you are supposed to only send to registered ebay/paypal addresses for stopping scams. If I sold something on ebay and was asked to send to a PO box or PM I would be suspicious.

    I would email the seller before bidding. Also watch out as many UK sellers will be quoting mainland UK prices.

    I use Parcel Motel quite a bit as a buyer as I'm not normally home to receive items that don't fit through the letterbox, and never any problems but I haven't used it when selling as it hasn't been requested by any buyers.
