Easy because all Ebay members must be over 18yrs of age to have an account


so why the proof of ID requirement for the receipt of alcohol then?

 

That was my initial thought too.

 

Alcohol policy

 

  • When alcohol is posted to a buyer, you must obtain the signature of an adult (over 18 years of age)

  • Many States have very specific laws based on the quantity and type of alcohol being posted

  • Sellers should describe the signature and postage requirements for fulfilling the transaction when listing such items on eBay.com.au

  • Many States require that carriers have licenses to transport alcohol

  • Your carrier must be capable of obtaining the required signature. Australia Post is unable to solicit age verification upon delivery of an item

     

     

     

     

    But maybe that is a blanket law for all postage of alcohol, not just an eBay policy thing iykwim.

     

    Cos when they post the Black Label Penthouse, no one has to sign for that, it just goes in the letter box.


Some people can go their whole lives and never really live for a single minute.
