A lot of SR sellers insist on not sending packages to the US in all caps for some reason- even if I encrypt my address in all caps, it often gets un capitalized on the envelope.
The USPS standard format is all caps... why do sellers, especially in the EU, prefer not to send in all caps?
-
One vendor implied all caps caused a larger address size than would fit their labels. check the vendor profile and when they state a preference you should follow it.

Name in caps has more meaning than you would think. See http://natural-person.ca/capital.html (!CLEARNET!)
Capitalization:
There are five different levels of capitalization used in names of "persons"
human-being: john doe
natural-person: John Doe
quasi natural/artificial-person: John DOE
corporation/artificial-person: JOHN DOE
Nom de Guerre: DOE, JOHN
Here is a summary of the rights and freedoms of the above "persons":
The human-being has all the unalienable rights and freedoms as provided by God.
The natural-person has the rights and freedoms as provided by man with the Magna Charta and Canadian Bill of Rights.
The quasi natural/artificial-person has lost some rights, but not all rights. At this time it is not evident how to quantify which rights have been lost.
The corporation/artificial-person has limited rights and freedoms as provided by the creator of the Corporation.
The Nom de Guerre (name of war) has no rights and freedoms and is a complete slave to the Admiral.

caps

no caps, it looks weird. when you get business mail does it come in all caps?
-
Whatever the vendor prefers, to a point. I do think it should be regular, with the country capitalized.
-
so far i've seen only a couple of vendor asking for the address in caps
-
Well most business mail does come in all caps (in USA)
-
I've never seen a vendor be so specific- but whatever they prefer so long as it speeds things along
-
I don't think it matters.
