Question:
It is on the bidders page. ~ CHEERS ~ Christina D. Anderson – Mrs. Illinois 96 http://www.hypertracker.com/go/mrsil96/ngrotate/eBayNG CALL ME: http://www.hypertracker.com/go/mrsil96/ngrotateEB/eBayNG 1 Cent AUCTIONS: http://www.hypertracker.com/go/mrsil96/ngrotateAC/eBayNG
– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Methinks Kris is not able to read much here tonight. Since the other Prodigy user reported same prob. Good point, thanks. I’ll email her a copy of the posts. Is anybody else seeing this phenomenon? Only other person that did was on Prodigy also, said it was okay using ATT newsfeed but screwed on Prodigy. Sorry, should have been clearer–I meant the phenomenon Kris reported seeing on eBay, not the one she’s suffering from here. Though both are interesting 
. Deborah Stevenson I’ve noticed no zip codes except in my own auctions. But I haven’t messed with anyone’s checkout stuff either, think that was where she claimed to see it? — Mac

- Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – It’s a big help, that eBay is giving sellers the zip code of the winning bidder, in the EOA email. But….I just noticed something. The same information is visible to the entire world, via the closed auction page, if they use the "request a total" button: (winning bidder’s ID) is the winner. (Preferred ship-to zip code: xxxxx-xxxx. Please confirm.) You have requested the total payment amount. Your seller will send the amount and instructions to complete payment. Kris Why is that a problem? It’s just the zip code, not the full address.
A nine-digit zip code will get you pretty darn close to the full address! The nine-digit zip code for my old address was specific to a group of four individual apartments. = Eric

The same information is visible to the entire world, via the closed auction page, if they use the "request a total" button: Okay, I thought I had figured out what you were saying–any passing eBayguy can request the total and then see the zip code.

Response:
that is what I thought to. I think it helps for the shipping and plus, a buyer might be closer to you and you can tell them they can pick it up.

I’m not quite following you. From what I’ve seen, the zip code is viewable only to parties to the transaction (IOW, if you view the page when you haven’t logged in or accepted cookies, you won’t see the zip code). Are you saying that if the buyer requests a total, then the zip code is available to everybody? Or that even without the request for a total, the zip code is showing up regardless of login?
