| If you are using a modern smartphone to satisfy picture requests, it is very
likely that the pictures contain location data as to precisely where you were
located when you took the picture. Unless you turn that off, or strip the EXIF
data, you are telling the recipient where you store your inventory.
Something to keep in mind.

| Doesn't every buyer have the seller's address anyway, once an order is
placed?

+1 since I started selling on bricklink I’ve given up on privacy as someone dosnt
been need to place and order, just a quote, and they can see my name, address,
and email.
|
Have they changed it then? It used to be that a quote didn't send the seller's
email address or postal address.

You may be right. But it still shows for orders which can be frivolously placed

| That's not true, the only seller info shown is their username, store name
& link
If you place a quote as a buyer then your username & address is shown
|
Just noticed, thought it showed for both orders and quotes but either way it
still shows for orders so it’s not much of a difference

| They'd have to get past my two cats to get at my inventory. I wish them luck,
especially if the cats are hungry (which they always think they are).

Thank you, I send pictures out frequently of my old sets and parts to potential
buyers. I had no idea this was possible.
