I've realized a buyer has the wrong zip code in their shipping address. I
suppose it's safest to just ship to the Paypal shipping address 'as is'
even though I know the zip code is incorrect.

I guess my question is how to deal with address errors after payment? Can a corrected
address just be agreed upon in Bricklink messaging to use for a shipment and
then used as proof of proper addressing if there are problems with the order
delivery?

In short: don't do ANYTHING without consulting the buyer.
Sometimes tables or lists of zip on line are erroneous.

If he doesn't reply, ship it as it is; don't guess - especially if it's
the same address on PayPal

Thanks. I'm going to take your advice. I've had no reply from the buyer.
The order is shipping via a freight forwarder to China I think, so it's not
really his own address. I really want to correct the address because the USPS
online tool gives me a different zip code, but I'll leave it as is.
