Actually the buyer has a law office as his business name, so more than likely I'm thinking its a lawyer that purchased the item....Even though I'm hoping its just a regular worker in the firm.

I am thinking you are selling a counterfeit item or you wouldn't be so worried.

Correct?

Well it has happened to me 2 times, about 3 weeks ago on my site, but I don't think its a big deal - they just don't want it shipped home cause it's a Christmas gift.

Expect shipments to businesses this time of year.

At first I was going to say don't do it. But even if the lawyer found out it was ====. I doubt he'd waste his time trying to shut you down. He'd probably just want his money back like everyone else. But, you never know...

Use Google and see what type of Law office they are.
A 2 bit Ambulance chasing law office....
Or a Million $$ Trademark Law Office.....

It all depends.

i would do it. if youre stealthed, its just adds a few more layers to hide behind anyway.

i remember i selling questionable things to ebay employees (it mentions it when they bid, and one time something actually addressed to paypal. did accounts go down eventually, yes. but not directly because i shipped those.

Lawyers browse Ebay too and buy on occasions....But if you are really worried, follow HWGA's advice and act accordingly.

As long as you're using stealth info and the meta data is removed from the your pic you should be good and if you wanna be extra cautios use gloves when packaging and use a different package then normal and different name and return adress and switch to a different account for a while.
