Neither signature required nor tracking is helping here. Thanks to all for the replies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing that I've noticed is that items aren't necessarily scanned into the whole system, unless you go to the P.O. and watch and make sure they physically do it. Drop boxes, home pick-up, etc., they don't always scan the items into the system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense. If my book disappears, and the USPS tag says "Daley" signed for it, while all my books are delivered to my office where no one named "Daley" works, then I'm for sure getting my money back, and someone is probably losing their job at a minimum on top of that. You can take that to the bank, no PO Box required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizzafist Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Who is this so-called "BUYER"? Anything insured for 700 would have been signed for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ottobord Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 per paypal: Signature Confirmation, if the full amount of the payment (including shipping and taxes) is $750 USD or more. This is documentation that can be viewed at the shipping company’s website and indicates that the item was signed for on delivery Assuming the buyer is telling the truth as a seller I would feel bad about this but not issue a refund. Buyers need to understand that there is a cost to doing business mail order. This is a dispute between the buyer and shipping service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Linguini Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 I had this issue before. Ebay is going to give the buyer all of his money back. I stopped using Canada Post for US mail and it was one of the best decision I've made. RidersRohan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This instance the package goes from Canada (me) to Brazil. And this is why I am now enrolled in Global Shipping Program. If I send it to Kentucky for eBay to send it overseas... once eBay has possession of it, it is on them. From what I recall, Brazil has always been sketchy.

The tracking shows it has been delivered, and now the buyer is claiming that he never got it. Has anyone ever dealt with this through Ebay disputes? I don't feel I should have to refund the buyer since I can prove the item was "successfully delivered" yet at the same time I can certainly understand how I would feel if the situation was reversed. The total is over $700.00. Insurance does not apply to an item that was successfully delivered. I am just wondering what to expect from Ebay. Anyone have experience? I dislike that the buyer is potentially out $700.00, OR that my side is going to have to refund the money and then be out the item. Especially since I was selling it for my unemployed friend. Don't know about that but I do know this - sending $700 through the mail without signature-receipt required is an expensive mistake. Just saw it was to Canada to Brazil. Ouch.

Spidey 62 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 I had a package sent to me, and it showed delivered. It never was. I live 100 feet off the road, on a main road. It was not taken. It never made it to my porch. The post office said the would look into it and get back to me. They never did. My point is that packages get lost, or even stolen by whoever. As long as the post office can make a case that it was delivered, how can you fight them? Unless you have cameras showing the time and date. I only lost 70 dollars worth of comics, so I can eat that. But it let me know that priority insurance is kinda bullcarp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
