shipped to wrong address

yuanwa_2522 — Sat, 05 Sep 2020 10:52:23 GMT

So basically, I moved houses a while ago, haven't done much online shopping and thought it would be cool to buy some laser pointer. My eBay account has my current address but today I noticed that it was shipped to my old address. I didn't realise until now and I bought it on the 30 of Aug. I'm not quite sure what to do next as I don't have contact with the people who live there nor the landlady.

If it's coming by Australia Post arrange for a mail redirection with them, I believe it takes a few days to implement.

Edit. Here's the link to do it on-line.

For future reference, make sure the address in checkout is where you want it to be sent.

If it is coming from overseas you may not get it.

I believe some laser pointers are restricted items....Customs may pounce on it.

Also if by Australia post, if you go to the tracking screen for that item, assuming you have a tracking number, you can do a 1 time redirect of that parcel.
