By "postcode" I assume the OP is referring to the zip code in the US. Guess it's called post code in the UK.
Yes, and it's even more specific (thanks to using letters as well as numbers for Post Codes). Just now I typed in my aunt's Post Code into Google, nothing else except the Post Code, and Google took me right to her house and her next-door neighbor's house in St Albans, just northwest of London.
So it's pretty easy to verify a Post Code. Alternatively, type in the British address with no Post Code at all, and get the right one provided to you in return.
Yes, but delivery scan has to scan to the postal code (zipcode) provided, if the OP puts in the correct code and it's not what the buyer provided, the bot checking the INR might rule in the buyer's favour.
For a wrong postal code, the OP has cause to be concerned. I had a similar issue where the delivery scan happened at the postal facility before delivery, and eBay told me the bot would rule in the buyer's favour in the INR because the postal code was entirely different than what the buyer provided (which makes it look like a wrong delivery). Canada post was zero help, and although the buyer filed an INR (which I granted to avoid the defect) the buyer did not cooperate with the postal investigation that would grant me my insurance claim.
And I'm in Canada (as was this buyer), so saying postal code in this case was correct.
with US shipments, I go with whatever the buyer provides. Sometimes chit Chats (my shipper) gives me a different zipcode on my shipment and tells me what I have is wrong. I ignore because if the ebay label prints, that's what I go with, I don't make changes.
