    If someone in America is reluctant to give their postal address (which is fair enough, you've gotta be careful about security on the net) is there a way to still send them something? Like to a neutral place where they can pick it up?

    They can have it sent to general delivery at the post office in their home town.

    Some people are still a bit nervous about giving out details, I can understand that.
