Bought a couple of things off Ebay recently where the seller wanted a cheque and didn't have his address with Ebay. Fine - apart from being a bore doing the paperwork and slow. But what got me was both of them sent their addresses by e-mail in this format:-
joe bloggs 15 smith street bloggsvillage east bloggsville ab1 cd2
which means I can't just cut and paste onto the envelope.
And would that be bloggsvillage east, or east bloggsville?
And why would someone want a cheque but not give details for an electronic transfer?
