I recently bid on an item on Ebay and won. I hadn't used the account in ages and had not thought about the fact that my old address was on there....

I don't live there anymore...will the post office know not to send my mail over there any more? I really want to get this package and I need to before Christmas.

  1. they will send to the old address unless your mail is still set up to be forwarded


  2. I would go to the post office first thing in the morning and put in a change of address depending on how long ago you moved.  The change of address is good for one year.

  3. U WILL DEFINATELY NOT GET THE PACKAGE

    SORRY!

    THE PERSON THAT LIVES THERE WILL!

    THAT SUCKS!

  4. Im sorry but no you need to have you adress now

  5. You changed residence, not PayPal not eBay knows about with the same bankaccount with them?

    You need plenty of thing to get corected with them too!

    Good luck!!!

  6. You could go to www.usps.gov and do a change of address, though I would think you would have one on record from when you moved.  Has it been a long time since you moved.  Check it out.

  7. You should have changed your address on Ebay, it's going to be shipped to your old house.  Contact the people who live in your old house and give em some money to mail it to you.

  8. i would say call your post office to let them know ahead of time that usually works !

  9. It'll take a little while longer if you havent filed a change of address form with them, but it will get there in the about the same amount of time.

  10. If you haven't lived there in months or years, the package will not get sent to your new address unless the post office has a change of address form filed from the last 30 days I believe. Your best bet is to call the post office(s) that serviced your old address and explain to them the situation. They'll probably have you call back early in the morning when the mailman is still sorting mail to deliver. You can also suggest to have it re-delivered to your new address and then offer to pay the postage due. Do it before the person at your old place gets it and keeps it. Without delivery confirmation, there'd be no proof that they have yoru stuff. Good Luck!!!

  11. Maybe you should go to the post office and let them know where you reside now.

  12. contact the ebay seller asap and see if they mailed it out.

    if so, contact the post office and ask what to do.  Will it be returned to the ebay seller?

  13. If you put a change of address form in with the post office when you moved, they'll forward your mail for a while.

    Even now, you can fill out a change of address form so the package gets forwarded. Ask at the post office counter.

  14. change your address information on Ebay, and also contact the seller with your new address, maybe you can catch them before they ship your package........the P.O. may or may not remember that you moved.....especially if someone else lives there now.

  15. Go to the post office and let them know you moved and have a change of address form fill out and your package will be sent to your current address.. That's what happend to me and I went to my new address.
