I'm more of a lurker than a participant on these boards, but I have gotten so much information from reading your posts, I hope you don't mind another eBay question!
I've just started selling again on eBay after an absence of a few years (nothing big ticket; just things I don't need/want anymore). I recently sold an item and when I contacted the buyer about payment and mailing info, he gave me his eBay user name to ship to rather than his first & last names. I haven't received his payment yet (supposed to be USPS money order); I just want to have everything ready to go when the payment does come in.
This may be a dumb question, but have any of you sent a package to someone who gave only their eBay user name? I guess I'm a bit paranoid after reading about all the scams out there. The cautious part of me is thinking "why wouldn't someone give me their real name?" Am I worrying over nothing???
Thanks for your input!
