I asked a question the other day about mailing to Thailand. The enquirer bid on my auction, and sent me the address today, it is 10 lines long!!! and at the end is a number 0016629092808 Does anyone know if that is a zip code or maybe the phone #. I am sure you are asking "why don't you ask the buyer?" I've done that twice, and I get an answer to a question I didn't ask. Obviously a language problem here.

It is a phone number.
001 - International Access number
66 - Country Code
2 - city code for Bankok
909-2808 - your bidders phone number
The multiple lines of the address are not all that unusual - One of my suppliers is in Bangkok and their address is about 7 lines once you break it down to actually fit on an envelope : )
The five digit number near the end of the line that starts with a 1 is their zip
You probably should include the phone number since you are addressing the package in english rather than Thai. It will help their postal people comunicate with the reciever in case there is any confusion.

If it's really "common" sense, why do so few people actually have it?

Thanks fenix, I thought it must be the phone number. She included it in the email she sent, but not on the Paypal and Bidpay invoice, so I wasn't sure whether to include it or not.
