  Hi everyone, been selling on bricklink now for a few years and came across this
today. This person who purchased from me is new to bricklink and I guess did
not put there apartment number on their address under their Paypal account when
completing the transaction. The package was supposed to be delivered today but
being sent back to me now for an incorrect address. The buyer is asking me If
I can re-send the order when I get the package back with their apartment number
added to the address. I would think the buyer has to update their address on
their end in their Paypal account right or am I wrong, IDK. Also in this situation
would you charge the buyer another shipping label with a new tracking number?
Kind of of need some help on this one.

Thanks

Will

Depending on whom is generating your postage, you may be able to detect these
prior to buying the postage. An address that is incomplete, or dubious, may not
be able to generate a full 9-digit Zip+4. If you see a proposed address (on Pirate
Ship) that does not generate a full Zip+4, then it may be to your benefit to
halt processing the order, and reach out to the customer questioning the supplied
address.

I am aware (from personal experience), that in a few limited situations, an address
that USPS was good with (say 10 years ago), they no longer feel is specifically
correct, and may randomly reject mail sent to that previously correct address.

In your situation, the ability to do this has already passed. Good luck !
