If your customer is not careful they may input the wrong shipping
information. One Number wrong in the Zip code and their order
has just been delivered to the write address, but in a different zip code.
They have already paid for the item and you used some of that to purchase
and ship that item to them, because one simple mistake was made
YOU, the merchant, Is OUT twice what they have already paid you.
Because you now have to repurchase the items, pay again for shipping
and then the time it takes for all this after you have
taken a day or two to verify that your customers package really did
not recieve their order.
If you receive your payment through Pay Pal Always check and recheck to make sure that the address your customer
has on file is the same one that was used to order the item.
Are you an eBay seller? Even more so important to check and double check that their
shipping address is correct.
It is possible for an Auction customer to have one address listed
with an Auction site and another with the payment company
(i.e.: Pay Pal, & e-gold, Bank Draft, etc.)
It is always safe to require your customer to verify their shipping
address as soon as you have received their order.
This way there is little delay for timely arrival of the order.
Call them on the phone or E-Mail them or Both.
Just make sure that you verify the shipping address once more after
you have it on the package, for good measure.
