strange uk seller
last month i had done some business via ebay again. i received items as a letter from uk mainly.
just had this"phenomenon" that 60-70 % of uk seller didn`t wrote their own adress on the envelope!
i am always curios about that!!!
why did they do it like this? lazyness or is just not necessary?
mean, post can`t send it back, if needed.
maybe the postmark indicates info to send back...?
did you know?

Here in the UK most people wouldn't add their own 'return' address to mail. Whether it's laziness or having enough faith in the postal service that
items won't get lost (!) I'm not sure. Personally I only add a return address to packages, not letters/cards etc.
The post mark only indicates which sorting office the item was processed at, not the post office which the sender posted the letter.

I receiced many packages from different countries without return address - I suppose some sellers want to remain anonymous for various reasons ...

Think The same too, and never understood it. Private sellers though.
Heard An Example once, An anrgument between seller and buyer, and buyer started sending him *pseudo threats* after he refused to accept the item back
or refund the money.Through ebay noone can threat or blackmail anyone, so this is the only reason i can find of somebody dont wanna share his details.
PREVENTION.
At The other hand this is the *Non-sense* Of Private Seller ebay Policy. Why? By the time *we* as buyers, show our details to everyone, why sellers
remain unknown? Buyers is the Heart Of Everything.
...had much more to say....
