Return Address
 

Hi help please i have a stealth account with ebay and when someone wanted to return something they had to contact me for a returns address which i also wrote on the back of the package which as been fine up to the other day but now when they want to return some thing ebay give them your address to return to which is not a real one is they another way around this other than renting a mail box

I've generally just used mine and friends/family address that have been used before on banned accounts, never a problem, for security I just tweak the address a little like 'Unit X, 13 PayPal Sucks Avenue, EB13 5CT

Thats your only option unless you are selling pricey items and can use a mail forwarding company, but they are costly.

miss spell your own name and put an address a couple of doors down from you. tell the people there some pratt is sending you a parcel and they have miss spelled your name and used wrong door number. can they take it in for you ?

Re: Return Address
 

Post office box, UPS store box, independent mailing shop mail box, home address variant, (as mentioned above) send a return label via email, send a return label via some mailing/shipping method, include a return label with the order that will only be charged to you if used...

I'm sure there are others...

Worst advice ever. How to start a war with your neighbours or get them looking into your affairs when multiple returns turn up. With eBays Automatic Returns thing now, returns are becomingh more often for everyone.

This is great advice OP - costs you a bit more but more professional for business

Re: Return Addre
 

Tis fairly good advice but had a distinct USA bias. which kinda does apply for the UK.


OP, if you ever had an ebay/paypal before getting suspended, did you have an accessible return address?

If so,Why stop now that you are doing Stealth.

Your Stealth account is still an ebay account. The difference is it is /Stealth.

Pfffttt. Not the best of advice.

Home address variations can flop for UK accounts as soon as they get a manual review.

Your method fails the minute ebay staff look at an address.

Address vatiations are a risk.

Nope it dosent. Millions of properties in the UK are used by multiple person/companies for postal reasons.

Havent lost an account in ten years using this method, and never lose a return.

Forwarding companies could of been used for multiple accounts prior by other people, so are just as risky.

Re: Return Address
 

If you read again, I can see no references I made to forwarding companies.

I spoke about residential addresses.

Thanks.

Re: Return Address
 

No you didn't, I merely elaborated on your residential address theory to help you understand the process.

You're not in the UK are you? Residential address are becoming more commonly used as business addresses now, being that we are overpopulated and with minimum buildings available for business related purposes and extreme rents put on all properties. The house next door, residential area, has sixteen businesses registered there.

While your theory in principal is correct, its not entirely workable and dosent need to be. Its old news rather than ⊗⊗⊗⊗ news.
