eBay now showing your postcode
I've just updated my iPhone on the latest eBay app and can't believe theyre showing peoples post code 
If I was selling my car I would certainly not want everybody knowing which street i lived in.
Anybody else think this is a stupid idea?

exactly what it should say
Just to add a bit to the security when buying things off the bay and its a random member/name send the goods to an address where the car doesn't live they are a lot of sharks on the bay and that's how they get to know where the cars are,
all the reputable boys are sweet as nut as am I

does it really make that much of a difference including your postcode? unless you tend to leave things laying around unlocked and un alarmed that is.

stop worrying so much, not everyone out theres a bad guy wanting to steal your rusty old ford. no wait now i think about it your probably right. as soon as the postcode goes up hoardes of thieves will be heading your way to stalk you out , waiting to pounce as soon as you go out to get their hands on your bangers
if they really want your car theyll contact you to get your address and turn up in the dead of night to steal it anyway.

locks and alarms make no difference to some people, especially when they know what house the keys are kept in thanks to ebay

That option has been taken away.

Im sure theyll be plenty of complaints and theyll remove it. I cant see any point in showing a post code as it already shows your city.
