| They are lying (seller). It shows this way if they printed off the shipping label & the USPS is awaiting the seller to drop it off to them. That or the Post Office sucks & they lost it completely. (Which is probably unlikely.) Did they put insurance on it? Regardless, you should be protected by eBays buyers protection; you never received item. |

| The post office will scan the bar code when the item is handed to them. It’s possible the person left it in the mail box or scheduled for it to be picked up and it was stolen...or usps misplaced it before logging it in. Either way, I don’t think usps will insure this if they don’t have records of receiving it. It’s always best to drop the item off at usps and get a receipt that they accepted it. This cannot happen if that action took place. File an item not received and the seller will have to figure out what to do. All the evidence is in your favor. |

Quote:Originally Posted by ONLINE_209 you should tell the seller you didn't receive it because the usps website indicates the post office never received the package from the seller that's why you should suggest to the seller to go to post office and find out if the package is laying around somewhere at the post office and never scanned into the system for shipping |

| I work for the USPS, and I will admit mistakes do sometimes happen. If the item was dropped off at the office it would have been scanned in for processing and would start the tracking process. If the item was picked up by a mail carrier, they're supposed to scan it in but unfortunately that doesn't always happen. Eventually it has to get scanned at the receiving, sorting, and distribution plant. If you have the tracking number, I suggest going to the USPS.com site. Create an account first because you will need to enter it later. Go to the HELP section and select the FIND MISSING MAIL option. Scroll down to the SUBMIT A SEARCH REQUEST then follow the directions from there. This way if it was actually sent and got misdirected they might be able to track it down and get it going in the right direction, and they send you updates too. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Kenjisan1967 Misdirected.... I had bought something off Ebay and this particular time I had issues with it. The seller offered free shipping. It got delivered to the wrong address. I was out $50+ bucks cause the seller never put insurance on it, & eBay showed the status as "delivered" (just not at my house....) The USPS still owes me that money (which I'll never see.) So I'm thinking I might go there and get a ton of their free "priority" boxes and cut them up and use them for cardboard backing for comics I sell. |

Quote:Originally Posted by GanaSoth You can go online and order those Same boxes and have them delivered to your house (no cost to you, free shipping). You need to order them in bundles of 10, but I don’t think there’s a limit to the bundles you can order. You can order a bundle of every size. This is how I get my region A and B large and small boxes as my usps doesn’t keep them in stock. Not that I condone the behavior you’re suggesting....just saying you don’t need to make a trip to the post office to acquire priority boxes.  |

| @Drogio well I appreciate ya saving me the gas & time! Well, the way I see it, my behavior is justified, being the Master Postman showed me the "area" and street name my package was "misdelivered" but he wouldn't tell me the actual address. They said they will try to get it back from the individual. It never happened.... | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by GanaSoth I assume this was first class, not priority? Everything priority is automatically covered up to $50. However....I have noticed on eBay the mailing invoice with say “not insured” if you do not select insurance when buying the label....although I still think the package is covered for $59 per USPS policy for priority mail, when the label is purchased through ebay and you item sells for over $50 Priority mail covers up to $100 free...but I think you have to “add insurance” before buying the label to get the full $100 for free. Kind of,off topic here, but thought people may not know this... name special that the $100 coverage isn’t automatic. |

| @ONLINE_209 Really... I'd tell them, "No... I don't feel comfortable giving out my number. It's been too long already and the Post Office is still awaiting the package so obviously the seller hasn't delivered it to the Post Office yet..." then tell them you want a full refund. Period. | ||

| @GanaSoth I did tell them no to my phone number they told me I still have to give them three days to make good on the sale not sure why as the three extra days is going to put me beyond the 30-day threshold | ||

| I'd call again. Tell them you want to speak to a manager/supervisor. Explain that you have waited for the seller to deliver the package to the Post office, and the Post Office still says they are awaiting the package from the seller. And if you give them three days, it will go beyond the allotted time for you to get a refund, so that isn't going to happen. +1-866-540-3229 - eBay Customer Service |

| Speaking of missing comics. I received a shipping notice from an order from midtown comics back on May 13th. Today I checked to see that the tracking indicates it hasn’t been handed over to UPS...so I contacted MTC via email to find out when they were going to ship it out and here’s the response I get: “Hello, Thank you for contacting us. It looks like your order has been shipped as of 5/13/19 we apologize for the processing delay on the order. The order does not appear to be moving currently. You can reach out to UPS and see if they can provide any update. Otherwise you please contact us on 6/13/19 please let us know and we will figure out the best course of action to assist you. Please feel free to contact us if you have any additional questions. Thank you kindly, Midtown Comics” Seriously? I have to contact UPS? What are they going to say to me? That they haven’t received the package and contact MTC. And I have to wait 30 days before MTC will even address the issue on their end??? Pathetic. |

| So apparently my shipment from midtown is taking a nice ride around the country, first class. Dropped off at a USPS facility on 5/13 (keep in mind Manhattan is about a 2hr drive from my house). Showed up in San Francisco on 5/20. Decided to hang around for a few days before heading back east. In Springfield MA now....and with the holiday likely won’t be delivered until Tuesday. I expect to see a lot of traveling suitcase stickers on the mailer when it arrives... |
