As eBay work closely with Royal Mail for postage etc, why can they not use Royal Mail's database for people to register their addresses? Nearly every other place on line where you buy something, the majority of sites you only have to input your post code then select your house name or number from the dropdown. Obviously eBay does not use this system and allows users to set up an address in any format they so require. This week I have had an issue with three buyers with things like the whole address on one line which wouldn't allow me to print a label as it exceeds characters. As well as the whole address being on one line, the address was also repeated on other lines. Why has the buyer been allowed to set it up like that? Another had no street, just a house number and a post code and a third had numerous spelling mistakes in the street, post town and area.
