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?

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

[Leader2dark]

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.

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

[cafonabob]

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.

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

I'm seriously ripping my hair out. Another dumbass buyer just did the same thing but USPS. I sent the label, they simply don't use it and made their own. I have never had this happen in over a year of stealth and now twice in a row.

I don't feel its safe to put my real return address on the account.

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.

[agent006140]

rent a mail box.

[ebaystealth1974]

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

[agent006140]

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

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

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

[agent006140]

ok,he needs to get a mail box

[rsot]

He probably does not want to spend more money

[agent006140]

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

[phaz0rz]

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.

[Sunspot144]

Couldnt the whole case be ruled in the seller's favor because seller didnt supply buyer with a label?

Sounds like buyer was responsible for shipping and wanted to use their UPS account which... per policy and any return to a business really should be using the label provided unless address is openly stated as okay.

You could say the return needed an RMA number but now you cant process the return - lul.
