Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

That would only cause him to A. Call eBay, complain and provide tracking. B. File a PayPal dispute and provide return tracking. C. Maybe get my account shut down after humans start looking into it and see the return address is from a banned account. D. Negative feedback.

Anything I'm missing here guys?

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

Nope, sounds like you've about covered all the possible outcomes.

Good luck. Just keep in mind people may be doing this on purpose so you should probably find a way to patch it up moving forward.

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

I understand that it is a big deal to PEOPLE LIKE YOU. Not sure why you don't get that... :lol:

I sell in a category that doesn't get me many returns. Also not sure why you don't get THAT.

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

You've gave him the answer, but he's scared.

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

Then it sounds like you really need to fix your address issue.

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

thats what he should do,
in the future,he should invest in a PO BOX or mail box if he does not want to use his own home address.

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

This one might be a loss. Only chance is that he refuses delivery and it gets returned.

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

It's one street over. I'm sure they will sign for it. I will go ask them for it back and see what happens.

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

Let them know ahead of time that you mis-typed the address and to be expecting a package for you, maybe?

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

It will say in the return the item needs to be send back by xxx day. If he doesn't upload the UPS tracking by that day call ebay and they will close the case.

If they sent it to the wrong address, if it is delivered, then you lost the item but will someone sign for a package with a different name and their address? Would you?

If it is refused, then you can "MAYBE" contact eBay and tell them they put the wrong address and you provided a label....

You might need to call them a few times to find a Filipino villager who knows what UPS is.

Also MAYBE you can politely ask the buyer to change the address, just leave the ⊗⊗⊗⊗ name on it, UPS won't ask for ID if they deliver to your house.

Good chance you lose the package. Consider it like shoplifting.

UPS won't let the receiver change the address. Has to be the shipper. UPS isn't as dumb as eBay but you can get the account number from the tracking number and with the customers name maybe you can call ebay and ask them to reroute it but I doubt it.

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

Op said the item is 100-200 ,so per Ebay and PAYPAL seller protection,there is no need to get signature conformation.

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

you really need to stop calling them idiot buyers. Your address on ebay is ⊗⊗⊗⊗. As far as the buyer is concerned, YOU are the idiot that would have a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ address. That's the life that we stealthers live. Sometimes it costs us.

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

rent a mail box.

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

I'd just tell them ahead of time that after checking my online order, I realize that I messed up when typing the address, and to please let me know when they get it

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

do it once,you fool me,do it twice,I fool you.
your neighbor will start to wonder what is in the package

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

Can't you just get a po box address and all returns go back to you ? Or ebay frown on po boxes now?

If you lose 200-300 twice in a row that would have been several years of po box address subscription. I had loss like this where idiot buyer just sent it back to the address they got it from without notifying me. it was for 150 and now i don't list items over 65ish

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

I'm not suggesting it as a lifetime solution. Just for this one package, and then OP needs to address his address issues lol

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

ok,he needs to get a mail box

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

He probably does not want to spend more money

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

well,he lost twice 100-200 dollars items.
Not everyone follow instructions to print a label online,Ebay is slow in sending labels or they just cant find the damn label and print it.
also if OP sends a different label with his correct address,how are they going to get buyer protection for not shipping to his return address on paypal/ebay>
if it is a lUPS label,you cant give it to your mail man or drop off at USPS post office

Re: Buyer shipped return UPS to stealth address
 

He got instructions for accepting all of his returns 100% free but was uncomfortable doing so. Probably isn't going to want a PO box tied directly to his identity either.
