Hi, is it safe to ship to Algeria?

I have a buyer asking if I will ship to Algeria, but I am not sure if it is safe enough to do it... what do you think?

Up to you! Who can say if safe, out of the whole of Africa I will only post to South Africa.

In my opinion you are using the Wrong Shipping for the UK, for the value ECONOMY using Packlink/Hermes  could prove a very expensive mistake. If shipping to Algeria you would need at least Royal Mail Tracked/Signed For.

You do need to read the T & C before using any Courier to find out what happens if Lost or Damaged. What is certain whether they pay any compensation, is that you have to refund the buyer.

Have you had any issues to South Africa in the past?

I was thinking using UPS international, what do you think?

Not to South Africa. Any Country I sell to, any problems with buyers and I add the Country to my Blocked List. It is a matter of Trial and Error and learn by mistakes. But then I rarely have expensive items, and there are now 4 different price zones for Worldwide, so tend to only quote postage for the UK in some cases and leave it for any potential Overseas Buyers to ask for a price.
