Well after 10 years I just got banned by ADAfruit indefinitely for not shipping to my home address. I don't know wtf that was about. I think they banned both addresses so I screwed my friend over. Anyone know of any other alternative sites?

Why would they ban someone for having separate billing and shipping addresses? That's the reason every shop asks for both. I'd recommend emailing them to figure it out.

it usually means they've been having a problem with people using stolen credit cards

I'm ok with them checking but they need to permabane me for asking to ship to my billing address instead of the alt address i was going to be in a week? Comeon.

I'm super tempted to post the whole email chain it's wild. They claimed it was fraudulent becuase I shipped to my cosplay partner which i have done before. So I said ok ship to my billing address they straight up refused and Then pressed for more information which is already on the form that worked before. To which I said ok cancel the order and I'll just reorder and ship to me. Next response is you have been refunded, get a new supplier and they permabanned me.

The only thing I can think about is if you billed to a university address. A couple electronics outlets I shopped at would give discounts for students and universities.

I guess if it's a lot of orders they can think they operate as a shop/reseller or something, not for personal use

sigh it was to my old address my partner still lives in and I shipped there before under my name. This is also not first time I shipped something there since I don't see point of shipping to me and drive it over. I explained that to them.
