Most people these days are happy to be addressed informally by someone they don't know; however, some people, especially the elder generation, are not. When writing in a context that doesn't by itself suggest what mode of address to use, there's always the question of which to go for.

Unless, of course, you did what I did on eBay the other day and use both:
Dear Sir/Hi*,

Could you tell me P&P for shipping this item to the UK? I don't mind surface mail.

Thanks in advance,/Thanks!*

Yours faithfully,/*
Michael Grant/Michael*

* Delete as appropriate. :o)
Silly? Moi?
