I know this is a stupid question but it's the first time it's come up for me...
I'm closing with a catalog host Thursday who has given me a po box as her address... I also have her street address as her step daughter hosted her cooking show there. I remember hearing something about not being able to ship to PO boxes. I just wanted to double check with you all that that's right before I talk with her so I can give her the right info...
 
You are correct. You cannot ship to a P.O. box.
 
And remember sales tax is based on where the order is shipped, so you may want to clear that up BEFORE her show.
