I filled out a form and provided the guys bank details and IBAN number, but I didn't have to provide his home address. It was only for £30, but I was charged £15 for the the service.Sorry I can't help though.Ask IO. He's got loads of money.

In today's anti-terrorist society, many countries (if not all) won't accept a package without a return address. (I know Canada won't . . . and without the return address it would stay in Customs until disposed of). I assume UK would have similar regulations. Plus, if they declare a value over $400, they would have to fill out the "long" custom form which asks for their return address (and this would arrive with the package, I believe).So, if you have their address (or can convince them you soon will), there seems to be several possibilities for mailing them payment.If the seller is unwilling to put their address on the package or customs forms . . . you won't be receiving it anyway!
