Find an abandoned house / appartment no too close to you place and use the address of the abandoned house / appartment.

Before using this address check whether it's not already occupied by squatters.

What's a squatter?

PO Box is most likely the best way. If you don't mind giving you're address without it being linked with you're username you could just send them a email using tor browser and tor email service.

But, I would recommend a PO Box, they are relativity cheap these days. Some are even free.

Do you know any places that offer free PO Boxes?

I know some local areas in the UK. Outside of that I don't know. I believe they limit it to how many items you receive. eg. 5 a month. Also, if someone is willing to pay, then you're box will be taking away from you.

The other way, would require you to pay for shipping fees. Basically you give them a address, which they send to. Then from that address you can request for it to be shipped back to you're address. (It keep Bitcoin users knowing where you live).

When buying something on the forum (physical), how can I retain my anonymity (not giving away my physical address)? Thanks!

If you are in the U.S. and you don't mind using your real name, you can receive mail at the post office with General Delivery (no need to actually rent a PO Box), you just go to the counter at the post office and pick it up. See below:

General Delivery

Get your mail even if you’re on the road, new to town, or between permanent addresses. Mail addressed to you at General Delivery will be held at the area’s main Post Office™ for up to 30 days. All you have to do is pick it up.

General Delivery is a great choice if you don’t have a permanent address. People can send you mail by using the town name and ZIP Code™, like this...

JOHN DOE
GENERAL DELIVERY
ANYTOWN NY 12345-9999

In medium to large cities with multiple ZIP Codes, you’ll want to make sure senders use the ZIP Code for the area’s main Post Office. The ZIP+4® extension 9999 indicates general delivery.

Send with a fake return address, use a drop-shipper, use a re-shipper, use a magic genie.
