Why do people request 'no invoice/receipt' when they buy used books?

I occasionally sell used books on half.com, and I have noticed lately that most buyers are asking that an invoice/receipt NOT be included with an order. Just curious why. Any ideas?

    To conserve paper. Including a printed receipt may feel redundant when they've already got an electronic record of the transaction.

    I am willing to bet that those people in particular are just trying to avoid wasting paper which is good for the environment.
