First let me preface this by saying that with the current state of bananas pricing, I'm thinking it's pretty unlikely that I ever actually buy chips again from anybody whose name doesn't start with a "D" and end with a "Spragg," so take my commentary for what it is, venting for no (real) purpose.
This has popped up seemingly on all the recent auction "rules" - "no shipping to P.O. boxes." Why? There is absolutely no reason for this. My business address is a P.O. box. For several reasons that I don't feel the need to detail, having shipments sent to my P.O. box is both more convenient for me and more secure than having them sent to my home address. In fact, I would NEVER have a four-figure item shipped to my home address. If I WERE tempted to bid on any of these auctions (and I am, for about 5 seconds until the price goes beyond what any sane person should be willing to pay - just my opinion of course, we all have our different thresholds and I respect that ) this would be an absolute deal-breaker.
So what gives?
