  There's nowhere a "shop" or "inventory" address - or that's
so brand new I don't know anything about.

There’s been a few posts saying “change your store address, not your user address”
or vice versa.  So there must be two addresses somewhere….

Lemme check this.

Store Address at the bottom of https://www.bricklink.com/v2/mystore/management.page

ID address is on https://www.bricklink.com/pref_general.asp?rD=Y

Hiya, this is my store and I am a part owner in it. Currently the majority of
the inventory and complete sets are in california but I moved to portland a few
months ago. I maintain addresses in both states but majority of the time I plan
to stay in portland now. I did not update my member address as I have seldomly
purchased on bricklink (maybe 2 orders in 3 months time). I have since updated
my member address to the correct new home address now. The store address is
still correct as of now. My partners still ship out of california mainly. I
did not intend to break any rules doing this.

I only started bricklink in march of this year and I have to tell you how un-user
friendly all of this is. Why can't the store be its own entity and not be
attached to my account? I have been on ebay and amazon for years (over 15 now)
prior and I have to say bricklink is kind of stuck in the stone ages of web development.

I hope this solves all the confusion. I did not intend to cause any issues.
The store feedback is pristine and we intend to keep it that way.

Thanks -Jerry

Just an update for everyone (or any future readers who search and find this thread).
I had to change my personal address back to match my store address to fix everything.
So for any other store owners in a similar situation, don't cause yourself
headaches and make sure you personal and store addresses match.

I still wish my store can be it's own entity without having to be completely
reliant on a personal account. (even when the store makes a sale, the name and
address provided to the buyer in the email was my personal one which was not
ideal)

Anyhow, I digress. onward and upward. =)

-Jerry
