Mentor3 months agoIf they are private sellers they won't get your postal address until they print the postage label so they probably want that. eBay usually blocks messages containing contact details but tell them if they click on Get Label > Print Label they will get your address. As long as the label is not scanned at the post office it will remain unused and they will be able to get a refund for it via eBay later.

Mentor3 months agoHi,
When you pay for the item, the seller gets the address the package as to be posted to.
If the item has not arrived by the estimated date, open an eBay case for 'item not delivered'.
