Often PO boxes are used by fraudsters. But since your PO box is your billing address, it shouldn't matter. Call your card issuing bank and have them add your physical address as verifiable. When the merchant attempts to get an address verification, it should return a match. Keep in mind that sometimes the AVS takes a while to update. If you place an order with them immediately after having the secondary address added, you might want to let the dealer know. They may need to call your bank directly for the verification.
