    Phone # to street address lookup

    I'm getting ready to buy something off of EBay and want to verify the sellers address before I send off a check for $400.

    I received the guys phone number for voice confirmation but I want to verify his phone number against the address I will be sending the check to.

    Are there any tools out there that can do a street lookup against the phone number?

    Try www.reversephonedirectory.com . There are plenty of other reverse phone look-ups on the web if you do a search. Unfortunately, they don't keep their databases very current or very complete.

    I actually found and tried that link before I posted here. But as you said, the database isn't up to date or some other failure. Either case it can't find the number. Maybe it's unlisted and hence can't look it up. /shrug

    Just seeing if anyone else had an idea.

    Cute. Reminds of a recent FRIENDS episode.

    How do you know he's not a rapist or a murderer?
    Don't you think I asked him first?

    LOL

    Check with Ebay and see what his record and status is. If he has sold stuff before then there should be comments about his previous sales transactions
