Proof of that is no longer required. Back in the day when it was, Trinton's old "the buyer may actually work there" or "the buyer may actually live at that address" or "that buyer from Siberia is just having his stuff held there until he comes by to pick it up someday" yada yada it soon became a very impractical if not embarrassing declaration. No way 300 or more people from the Russian Federation could possibly work or live at that address in New Castle. Nor was it possible to believe that all those 'empty boxes' arrived there as well day after day. The seller providing proof of reshipment has been basically abandoned.I didn't say that they did, I actually never knew it was a requirement. I've always gone by if the buyer asks for a return and they are somewhere other than the address the product was shipped to, then the seller wasn't responsible because it had to be reshipped in one way shape or form to get to the new address.
If by chance I do get an INAD from a transaction like this. Approving it usually isn't an issue because the return shipping label is good for the address the seller shipped the item to, which in this case is a US FF. To take advantage of the label, the buyer would have to ship the item back to the FF at their expense, then pay the FF to reship it to me. I never had that happen. I suppose it could, but in my experience it never happened.
There was a time when I sold fragrances that I dealt with a lot of **bleep**.

This is never necessary if you are uncomfortable in doing so.. Lots of members post with posting IDs. There is nothing wrong with it.

Your post is very hard to follow, well at least for me. It is hard to tell what is your comments, again at least for me.
FYI, that **bleep** in my last sentence in the above quote is likely a bot WHOOPs. I had just typed FF for freight forwarder. LOL
