Hey - sorry for what I’m sure seems to sound like a sketchy title haha.
I am involved with some niche collecting communities on Facebook. About a year ago I had a very negative interaction with a person in one of these groups - I won’t get into it but I felt he was acting very out of line. I blocked him on there and moved on from it. This particular individual lives in Australia and I am based in the US.
A couple weeks ago I posted some items which would be of interest to this collecting community on eBay. One sold last night and out of habit I purchased the shipping label right away. After I did this, though, I realized the individual who bought it was the same one I’d had the negative interaction with on Facebook.
I’m not opposed to this person getting the item - and there’s nothing wrong with it - but I am afraid that they may give me negative feedback just because they can as the buyer. I have 100% on eBay and my account is nearly 10 years old - I would prefer to keep it this way. I know I can request to have feedback removed etc - but I'd prefer to avoid the headache altogether if possible.
What I’m wondering is - will eBay display my first name / last name on the Australian customs form? The label I purchased is through the EBay International Shipping Program. My ship from address is already the name of my eBay store and my personal information does not appear on the packing slip. However, my name and email etc is tied to my account as required by the site.
If they don’t realize it’s coming from me as the seller, I’m sure there will be no issues - but otherwise I am afraid there may be, given this person’s past behavior outside of eBay.
Thanks in advance!

No, because with eBays international shipping you only ship to a domestic hub like Glendale Illinois. The only info on the label to the domestic hub is your return address. To the best of my knowledge Once it reaches the hub the package gets another label with customs forms etc the return address is eBay shipping hub.
If you are worried about trouble from that buyer add them to your blocked buyer list.
