Paypal forces you to checkoff the type of sale. I am betting most people click off 'Goods' for a domain sale. But domains are not property, they are service contacts. So the correct checkoff is the 'Services' choice, I think?
 
It doesn't matter what you check off. Paypal will not consider a domain a good or a service.

Agreed. Mostly. But with that said, I usually check services. Keep in mind that services are not taxable in many areas (Florida for example, at least for now), while products are.
 
I check services as Domains are not tangable (:
 
I always chose "services" because it will not ask for delivery address
 
Goods, Its an actual address on the web. Just my thought
 
Services, although actually my opinion is it is a digital goods :yes:
 
So all of you who chose "goods" - what address you state as "delivery address" ?
 
Leave blank - I just enter "For domain name xxxxx.com" in the message box.
 
Goods.

I remember I once put services and the paypal system refused to make the payment.

It could have just been coincidence with some other problem, or it could be that paypal doesn't allow payments for services in Peru.

I didn't like to try putting services again after that first incident.
 
Leave blank - I just enter "For domain name xxxxx.com" in the message box.
When I chose "goods" it automatically puts some address as shipping address
 
I've always chosen Goods as well. never had any problems.

and as previously suggested enter domain name in the message/notes box.
