So let's flip this around...let's just say that They mailed us FIRST for some reason: maybe to promote a movie or a book or something..is that an invasion of our privacy? And I already know what you're gonna say, 'NO because we aren't famous..' Mail is public. We aren't stalking them. They always have the right to toss any mail from fans. But if they "loved" their fans, they wouldn't do that. I always say this: 'FANMAIL IS A PART OF BEING FAMOUS.'

I highly doubt they would use their home address to do so, more than likely they would use a publicist's or agent's address. I'm done with this conversation though as it has turned into a personal attack when all I was doing was offering my opinion on the subject.

If they are gonna send something to promote it doesn't matter what address they use...Well you gave your personal opinion, so I am gonna give mine. So be done, but I'm gonna continue to say what I want. And it doesn't matter...MAIL IS MAIL. :mrgreen:

U have an example?

Your chances of getting an item delivered in the USA without a house number is slim, but if the play has an uncommon last name, you have a chance. Lots of addresses in the UK dont need a house number, like this one for Chelsea

Stamford Bridge
Fulham Road
London, SW6 1HS
UK

Stamford Bridge is the equivalent of the house number, and its on Fulham Road.

While some places in UK don't have a house number, they still have a full official address recognized by the post.

Like in the example you've given, "Stamford Bridge" wouldn't be a nickname or a shortcut, it's the actual address. It essentially takes the place of the house number. It's complete. There's no guessing involved.

The OP's case would be different, because he only has the street name, which would make it an incomplete address. The house number is a necessary part of the address, otherwise you're basically telling the post office to guess where this person lives.

So if it's equivalent to a house number, in the uk ''Stamford Bridge'' IS the "house number" because without that it wont get sent to the house because it doesn't have the Stamford Bridge on it...lol. So that wasn't a good example....haha!

@dfreely YES, EXACTLY what I am talking about! :mrgreen:
