Was looking at some of my past sales recently.
Saw that I've delivered overseas to buyers in Georgia, Saudi Arabia and, incredibly, Siberia. Never once had a sale to Africa or to central America.
Within the US, the most remote zip code thus far belonged to a buyer who lived in Mentone, Tx., 79754... amazingly, USPS delivered there (from the DC metro area) in three business days.

That's a good point too! Several times I've gotten orders from Salem. It's fifteen minutes away, we're kind of a suburb. I've never had a buyer from my own small town, that would be the ultimate. I guess I'd ship it!?!

I've had my hometown twice and the next town over 4 or five times. It has to ship unfortunately. Unless the buyer wants to cancel and re-buy with local pickup enabled.
