I wonder about this too. I think all AH should be very careful with the return addresses they use, to avoid telegraphing the fact something valuable and collectible is inside. For instance, I recently received a package with return address: Bill Huggins, Huggins & Scott. I think that is much better than, say, "Huggins & Scott Auctions..." The word "Auctions" telegraphs a valuable item that was bid on, and not just general merchandise, like a bug zapper or package of T shirts.
