I want to make a purchase privately from someone in uk.
I have both uk and australia paypal accounts but i want to use my uk paypal as its same currency.
But as my uk paypal probably has the uk address how do i get it delivered overseas?
Ok easy option would be to use my paypal here in australia and pay with that but i need my funds here for other things at present.
I believe i can send funds to myself from my uk paypal to australia paypal but dont i lose money by doing this by getting the exchange rate paypal gives?
Whats best or options i have on doing this prefer to pay with uk paypal but have items sent to australia.
Thanks.

I thought you can only use a uk address with a uk paypal i believe this is a common problem worldwide you can only have the address within that country.
As im looking to use and pay with my uk paypali want it sent to australia so if i cant add my australian address then its not possible.
But you did make a point that as its a private sale and i could ask seller to send overseas in notes or private but I take if things went bad or went wrong i not get my money back?
I've got a UK paypal address.
And I have had stuff sent to australia.
Yes you need a primary address set to the UK.
You can have secondary addresses.EDIT.
Looks like they may have changed this at some point in time?
I can't seem to access my UK bank card since it expired and I didn't update the card.Yes believe it happened a few years back it only allows you to enter a uk address.
My other option would be to sent myself a payment from my uk account to here.
But then im not sure of costs involved in this and prefer if i can reduce as much as possible.
change your shipping address in your UK paypal account.
You can have multiple addresses.
You can also have your paypal accounts UK/AUS/US as the same if you used the same email when you registered.
You can also communicate privately with the seller and add notes to your order..
