    why take such action to force the sale to proceed and risk being a victim of an erroneous claim rather than simply losing the sale?
    Oh no -- I didn't say that businesses _should_ take that action. Just pointing out that blacklisting _is_ a thing, from my own experience.

    In my case, I _had to_ take that action (subvert their "blacklist"). As I wasn't going to physically carry the stuff there, or hire a car to drive it there myself!

    There was no risk of fraud etc. given the destination. The blacklisting thing was a nuisance, probably connected to the fact that the postcode is shared with other facilities at the same location, and all got lumped together.
