Shipment Addresses

Recently an outrageous seller demanded that I provide a residential address for shipment of an item I won rather than my PO box address. What Ebay policy permits sellers to demand a residential address as opposed to just any street address? What makes a PO box address ( even the IRS use my PO box address) unacceptable?  UPS and Fed-Ex both have programs now in partnership with the USPS for delivery to PO boxes. They are legal US addresses. There was no mention of this in the listing for sale. Suppose I was buying the item for use in my business. Does this mean I can't ship to my business address? His position was amazingly supported by Ebay. It would seem to cancel all transactions with businesses using their business address.

Re: Shipment Addresses

Sellers get to pick which carriers are shown in the listing, the buyer picks from that list. If X is on the list, the and the buyer picks it, then the seller needs to ship per that choice. The seller can't just pick which ever shipper they want to use after the item is sold, they need to ship per the customer's wishes and at the level of service shown in the listing that the buyer picked.

Re: Shipment Addresses

eBay goes buy Utah Code/U.C.C 2-401(2) UCC provides that unless a contrary agreement is explicitly made, title passes to the buyer at the time the goods are physically delivered to the buyer. 

 

The goods are  yours upon delivery not upon payment.
