Updating your delivery details at checkout

At checkout, we'll show your primary delivery address as the default. However, you can always select a different address, or enter a new one, before you confirm your purchase. Whenever you enter a new address, we'll save it so you won't have to re-enter those details in the future.

Changing the delivery address for an item you've already paid for

Sellers generally can't change the delivery address that you provided at checkout. If they haven't yet sent the item, the best thing to do is to ask the seller to cancel the transaction, then repurchase the item with the correct delivery address.
