Hide seller address when using PayPal

BattleToy

I know that the seller's address is shown when a buyer makes a payment on PayPal.

How can I hide it as I don't want my home address to be shown?

Is it true that there is no way not to disclose your home address to the buyer.

Looking at a couple of Paypal emails and on my Paypal account, it doesn't seem to show the sellers address. If it shows it when paying then I've never paid any attention to it. I check my details are correct and the item and price it shows is correct, I don't look at the sellers details. Many don't even check that much so they're not likely to look at a sellers address.

When you post something it should have your address on as a return address anyway and if ever an item needs to be returned they'll find out your address.

The Seller details are sometimes on the eBay purchase email

This is the important bit, I wouldn't be sending anything without a return address.


OP regardless of what a paypal invoice shows, any of your buyers can request your details later- from memory they don't get the door number, but they get the street and postcode, plus your phone number.

Quite often a surname and a postcode will dilvulge more than just the door number.

House price when it was last sold with current and previous occupiers.
