How do you guys handle buyer protection cases with address's?

[rsot]

You have to be creative with the registration. If you are afraid of being linked, why dont you just use a completely different address? Address variation or not, I dont have accounts ALL registered to a simple po box variation - sure maybe 1-2 but you want to keep any possibility of manual review causing link to a minimum too...kind of logical.

As other users have explained, you handle returns differently - you provide a separate return address OFF-EBAY - e-mail or include a different address with the package ....you keep control of the situation - dont let the buyer just return the package to any old address.

Nothing is bulletproof.

All that can be done is make every effort to avoid being caught 'carelessly'.

In an older thread, First Edition explains his method.

He has a *cough* return address described as a warehouse. This is an approach you could look at.
There's another thread that expands on this as well. I'll find it for you.

Despite the address variation Wont the names link the account?. Because I know that my postal service wont accept mail in anyones name except the biisness name or tbe sign up name on the account. Or do you have to add other names to ths p.o box so kt wont link?.

This is why you open a P.O. Box at a Non-US Post office if possible. For example, like Sandy I have a PO Box (business) at a Non-US Post Office location so they (my p.o box location) allows me to have up too 3 different names or business names on the P.O. Box, example:

1. My Real Name
2. Business Name A
3. Return Department (for returns)
