i want to buy a headphone from any of these sites
buy my address is not serviceable by couriers used by these sites

but if in my address if i change the pin code to nearest pin code(3-4 kilometers far) i can get a cash on delivery

can i order buy using this trick


is there any problem with this method since i assume that the courier guys
will call me so that i can collect when they receive it.

You have the item shipped to a relative's address.

Or you can just go a pick up the order from the office of the courier.

No hassle in that. :)

But is it advisable to give the wrong address on purpose? I think that might create problems.

They are supposed to ship anywhere in India. So a matter to 3km is ok.

Ship it in the name of your relative with proper address and you will be fine :wink:

Better ship it to ur address. They will contact u if they dont find ur address. And you can then directly collect it from their office.
