I wouldn't say a bad sign necessarily, but certainly a warning. The bottom line is that paypal's policy is very specific - ship to the verified address "or else." Both buyers and sellers are bound by the same guidelines.
Personally, I have shipped to non-verified addresses, and I have asked people to ship to me in weird places. I've only refused a few people, and only been refused by a few people. I would not take that risk with a buyer or seller with a 0 feedback, unless the shipping had been arranged in advance and with some safety precautions taken.
I'd simply play ignorant on the matter, and tell the buyer paypal won't let you ship to a non-verified address. If s/he'd like to have you refund the money, and send along a postal or other money order everything is cool; if not, I'd decide whether that cell phone is actually worth $90 or the risk or not and go from there...
The net is a bloody frustrating place, isn't it? :)
