I was trying to start the alternat address confirmation, but it doesn't seem to be possible. Parcels sent to work have to be sent to the business, "attn:" or "c/o" my name. It's not really a policy. I'm the manager. I know the regular UPS guys. They bring my stuff even when the addresses/names are off. The US Postal Service seems to let drivers draw straws to see who gets the commercial block here, and none of them are terribly enthusiastic about their jobs. I miss our old mail lady. She rocked. She still comes in for coffee sometimes. Not too familiar with the fedex guys, either. The ones I've chatted with seem ok, but I usually wind up with ups parcels.
Since the ebay shipping address is
Business Name
Street Number & Names
Suite Number
City, State, Zip
There's no box for my name. Since the "name" doesn't match my name, paypal marks it as a gift address. Can confirm a gift address? Apparantly not, it's not in the droplist for starting alternate address confirmations. You should really get with ebay and have a new type of address... one where the receiving "party" is the business someone owns/works for, with the package being directed to a certain employee... namely, the account holder. Please? Maybe you could send email to a verified email address with a link to call the work phone number associated with a work address and type a pin sent to the verified mobile phone number in a sms?? Something? Fax? Really? I haven't had a fax/modem since the mid-nineties.
