Returns address

[james929]

Hi Guys,

Is it risky to use a private PO box available online for a returns address e.g if other amazon sellers use the same address for their account or returns? Its hard to tell though how many sellers use the address..

Won't there be a risk of linking or does amazon allow the same returns address for many accounts?

Are you the owner of the PO BOX? If not, How do you receive the return items?

the company offers a forwarding service..

do you think its risky to use these services?

I still can't see how you receive the returns if it's not your PO BOX

You should be given a different suite # that doesn't belong to anyone else just like if you had your own office in an office building, same addres but different office, don't see any risk there.

ok its a private mailbox rental then..who forward the letters / post to me..

companies like this one:
Mailbox Rental | Rent a Mailbox | Mail Boxes Etc. UK and Ireland

would this be too risky to use as others may have used it even if the po box / unit number is different?

Not at all, just think of how many sellers live in apartment buildings..

thats true but I still think there is some risk if say a banned account is linked to a PO box - sometimes we hear of accounts being shut down and the seller has no idea why it was shut - this could be a potential reason - bots sometimes dont see common sense..

Looks like you answered your own question then sounds like a pretty small risk but do what you gotta do
