The TRUTH about Amazon Wishlists

So for anyone who saw my original comment about this, the information I got from Amazon was incorrect. It WILL show your shipping name and city upon checkout. Super lame...

Thanks for the update Nor

very interesting post Destiny...thx for the research!

Oh wow! Thanks for the article, very informative

Very informative thank you for posting the

Well I only do EGIFT cards lol I appreciate the article though, however I remain firm on not dealing with wishlists. In the end, there is no way around for anyone not to get your personal information. I tested it myself, especially on Eden Fantasy

Wow Destiny! Thanks Hun

Thank you so much, this is completely contrary to everything I've ever been told. I'm glad I never got around to setting up wishlists!

I have just used on alias on amazon, as I have on other sites. Is that not a viable option? As long as no one sees my address I am happy, I have fake emails/names for the other part

Yeah I use my stage name on my account for amazon....if they want to Find me in Houston...then good luck cause you'll have miles to search.

Same here, you can use an alias. I had even changed my name on my account, for this reason. I have been using an alias since 97, so it's nothing new to me. There are ALWAYS ways around site rules, to protect your identity. Plus, you can have your stuff shipped to a postal box that allows such things. Yes, you have to pay for that box, but, it's worth it.

Great post thanx for the info.!!!

I just use my stage name as my shipping name. Also, my city of Pensacola is huge, so I'm not worried about that whatsoever. The only guys that even buy me stuff off my wishlist are regulars who live in other countries, and a few that live very far from me in the states.

I just want to say on my wish list instead of having gifts sent to my home i put in message to send a gift card (e card)to my email address. And to let me know which item they chose off of my wishlist.... its easier and alot safer !!!

you can hide your name to the people who view your profile. just move everything down. like where it says ur name put like the a one word name. than in the 1st address use your name. and second use the whole address.

Thanks so much for the research and post!

I use my cam name & I don't mind people seeing my city so much anymore (it's a whole hell of a lot larger than my previous location), but generally the Amazon Gift Cards are safer. I know girls who keep the wishlist up with no shipping address attached and add a note in the "wishlist profile" that if they'd like to buy something, just send me a GC for the amount.

Thank you for posting

I use my stage name but I think my town shows up

Interesting! I think i will have my own wishlist.. But i have one (maybe stupid) question.. How can people find me on amazon? Do i have to tell everybody they can get me gifts on amazon?

lol I dont even put my real name On my wish list, When I get a package with that name I know its from my amazon wishlist... and big dill if they know my city, montreal is HUGE loll I even tell them When I broadcast Im from montreal I rlly dont care if they know.

was wondering about that. Thanks yall for clearing this issue up.

Personally I've had bad luck with my wish list. Guys can always cancel their order after they've purchased the item for you. I've had it happen to me.

I use my stage name as well on a separate Amazon account and it's associated with my stage name email address.

This is the very reason I didn't get in on the wishlist thing. There are some models with LLCs that have their wishlist items going to an alternate address with an alternate name. This protects them from someone finding them or providing their real name.

Very informative for me, actually. I have been using TheThingsIWant for mine for a long time, til someone pointed out that some of my customers may prefer the perceived "ease" of Amazon. Seems that everyone uses amazon :/

If you put your city in the address 2 box and put a - in were city goes, then your city isn't shown on your profile. You still get your items and if they're not a dick, then they don't get your city (I've done it). Of course those damn dicks out there who will cancel their order and get your info, so for people I trust I'll switch on the ship to address option for them, if I barely know them, they can send me an amazon ecard. It's scary knowing some of those horror stories. Most guys won't act on anything, they more or less get off on the idea that they have your personal info, that no one else has. But there are a lot of crazies out there and I like the idea of being safe instead of sorry.

I had a scary situation where a sub came in my room someone I had never chatted with before . Used my real name said it , and stated that he was trying to send me something off my wishlist and needed my address because it wasn't going thru. I didnt let him see me panic but I was deleting my wishlist as he spoke. I used a alias and a P.O. box. They do have shipping forwarding companies available . Where you pay for a fake address in any state you choose to use , and everything is always sent to you.

I think there is confusion about what the Amazon clerk was saying. First let me ask: Are you aware you can add items from other websites to your Amazon Wishlist? Most people do not know that, so most of us only have AMAZON products on our Wishlist. This agent confused us when she's talking about 'leaving Amazon to buy from another seller'. That part has nothing to do with your basic WL. Here's what she's talking about: #1. You find something at Victoria's Secret you like, so you click the 'Add to WL" button you've installed on your browser (most of us haven't done this, and that's why this entire worrisome thread is moot). #2. Your customer goes to your WL page, sees the VS item you want, clicks on the link and it takes him over to the item you flagged on the VS.com site. At this point Amazon is no longer involved. As a courtesy they LISTED the item on their website, but they can't sell it to you. VS.com has to sell it to him. #3 It's impossible for your customer to buy something from VS.com for you because he needs to have your address, which of course he doesn't have. This agent was giving more information than you were asking about. She was reading you the entire 'playbook' when all you wanted to know was whether Amazon shares our address with the person purchasing the item. She's saying, Amazon does NOT share your personal information, only your email address.... but she's also giving you the disclaimer that if you have something on your wishlist from another website Amazon has NO control over that, nor do they share any information WITH that 3rd party website. Quote "All the process regarding third party order which is placed on the amazon website is controlled by amazon and done on amazon website only. But when you leave amazon website and place your order on seller website (example: VictoriasSecret.com) we don't have control over them and we do not provide your any information to them neither they will contact us for your information. They may ask you your personal information directly but we don't have control over these orders." Is that making more sense? As long as you're shopping ONLY on Amazon, not adding items from other websites, your personal information is safe with Amazon.

Continued from my prior reply.... Here's a screen shot of my Amazon Wish List plug-in which I believe the customer service rep was talking about:

@JoyKitten: "As long as you're shopping ONLY on Amazon, not adding items from other websites, your personal information is safe with Amazon" This is NOT true! I appreciate you taking the time to respond, but not only have I done my research, but I have first hand experience of a member obtaining my information from an item that was on my Amazon wishlist. This item was added to my wishlist on Amazon from Amazon.co.uk ie NOT from a third party website. He was chasing up the item because I had not received it and when he spoke with customer services, they provided him with my address! If you want an Amazon wishlist, best thing to do is to have a virtual mailing address or a PO BOX address.

Hey all! I just wanted to mention to my fellow uk cam girls that there is a site called parcel love -
