Update:

So after selling a few more the situation gets a bit more odd. Generally against the rules, I'm going to go ahead and post more details such as the address to this place due to being a company.

First I'm going to say the address is:

55335 Corwin Rd.
Elkhart, IN 46514-8402

This is apparently a company that you can find on the web. www.viaddress.com It is a package forwarding company, and according to some sources, though I can't seem to find any that are really recent, have had a bad experience with them a bit ago. Some more recent ones just complain that items took forever to get to their destinations.

Now the point of the company seems to be you buy an address at their warehouse, that way you can order items off websites in the US and they'll ship it to a destination that normally wouldn't be able to do so. Good idea if your from a country that that your dollar value is much more than the US, or a US citizen living outside the country. Each person gets their own Unit number, kind of like their own PO Box I guess in the warehouse.

8/9 have gone to this address, 7/8 went to different people. Most people are new users, a couple weren't. I've talked to other ebayers and if this is a scam it's on a massive level.

I think I'm going to stop selling them for the 45 day period that a buyer can claim a refund. I've also updated all the ones that have been shipped with tracking information.

Old post:

So I sold some Amazon gift cards on Ebay. 3 to be exact. Well all would be fine if the shipping situation wasn't so odd.

Both buyers have the same exact address, different accounts and different shipping names though. The addresses aren't exact though actually. One has a Unit number of A953562 and the other is A953260.

Both have a positive feedback of 24 combined.

I'm going to ship, for the main reason that I have to in order to meet my end of the deal. Yet if someone has some advise please do tell because I may be able to return to sender before it makes it there heh.

Sounds like someone purchased a card, knew a friend who lived in the same complex wanted one, so they forwarded the auction over. I can't think of any extra reason to worry.
 
[quote name='ssjmichael']Are both addresses confirmed? As long as you ship it to the address listed in the invoice you should be okay. Make sure to use delivery confirmation

Is this your auction btw? I don't get why people would pay $38 for a $25GC: http://www.ebay.com/itm/25-Amazon-K...5?pt=US_Gift_Certificates&hash=item33702ad025[/QUOTE]

Used delivery confirmation. Both addresses are confimed, actually just looked them both up and are both business addresses.

The 25$ one is a test in the water type of deal, that's the first one I've listed at that value. The ones in question are 50$ ones I sold for 75$, and one for 65$

:cool:
 
People ares stupid why the hell spend 10-15$ more for something you could have bought on the website itself.... As long as you use delivery confirmation you should be fine
 
Actually you want to use Signature Confirmation because delivery confirmation is not enough. I got screwed once over something similar. Believe me the extra cost is worth it so they can't screw you over.
