Need a physical Address
 

So reading the guide i have option of friends/family, po box, or some random address.

I'm using my stealth account for buying only would something like this work?

Find a apartment address. Call the manager/landlord and ask how many units . They say something like 100. Then I put 101?

I have 3 ebay buyer accounts and I can see one of them is slowly maturing where ebay is kind off your back. But the address is a real address that I don't know. I also used the real persons name (found it on white pages).. yes not a smooth move cause if item gets sent there , this guy will have free goodies or maybe report to ebay or something.

So want to change the address,

Why not obtain a ups box which gives you a street address? Easy as 1,2,3

Ups rental is much more expensive then po box and I know it provides street address but read that po box also can be chopped into 3 addresses (including street) so i t can be used three different accounts. I'm leaning towards po boxes for that reason but trying to find one that is free since I'm using it for buying.

Being stupid me, i have 3 buying accounts that have someone I don't know so if item gets returned they will be like what the heck.. or just keep the item..

So need to change address and if the apartment way doesnt work (having more units.) I'm thinking po box is only way to go with my nickname so i can retrieve packages. But po box ebay frowns on this?

But just realized if apartment way with more units (for example they have 100 units and i'll put 101), im thinking the post office might deliver it to the landlord/manager front office ?

I wouldn't risk anything with apt addresses, as someone might steal your package, and keep them.

UPS boxes aren't that expensive at all. I pay for 3 months at a time, and the cost of 3 months would be less than what you're making online I'd assume.

What about for stealth buying account.. apt address is similar risk? That's reason for not going ups route.. i do buying cause i list items on my own domain and then dropship items ..

I'm guessing that, it boils down to communication. If you are informing customers etc.. on returning items to your real address then it should never reach the apt stealth address etc..

But being in a unperfect world there may be those times.. and just consider it a loss?
