Then it still doesn't really apply. Do you know amazon or ebays real life
postal address. And what if their postal address is diffent.
My Apple macs have never been posted from Cupertino, California.
Scammers can have business address's that look OK.

eBay Whittaker House, 2 Whittaker Avenue, Richmond, Surrey TW9 1EH.

that's not ebay's main office and they're not going to help with a
dispute over the phone or in person anyway.

So?

so ebay's address and phone number do not matter in any transaction
done on ebay.

Agreed. I provided the information at the request of Whisky-Dave.

any disputes are handled directly between the buyer and seller.

Agreed.

ebay will step in only *after* the buyer and seller try to resolve it
and no resolution has been achieved. that's entirely without needing to
know ebay's address or phone number, and at which point, it may not be
decided in your favour.

Agreed.
