Erroneous "Pickup Item" generated
Erroneous "pickup item" generated
A buyer purchased two different items. I purchased a shipping label for one; It erroneously generated a "pickup item" when I bought the label. The only way to correct that is by cancelling the purchase, which means that I do get paid! FIX IT!!!!

OP3 weeks agoI made a correction in the listing for shipping. It was shipped to the buyer with the other item he purchased.

Look at your listing
If it's this listing,
https://www.ebay.com/itm/336209708577
It's set for local pickup only. There is no shipping on this listing.

You can cancel and have the buyer re purchase
You can mail it with your other item
You can mail it untracked in a stamped envelope.
If you don't cancel and have the buyer repurchase, then the only way to get proof of delivery is to have the buyer send you the 6 digit code after they get the item.
Items that are 'local pickup' like this decal, get code sent to the buyer to give to the seller when they pickup the item.
I understand you didn't want this to be local pickup, I am just providing options.

I am not 100% clear what the pickup item means?
The only way it can be set for buyer to pick up one item is if the buyer chose that when they checked out.
If you want to ship that item, the best solution is to cancel, relist, and have the buyer repurchase.
If you don't want to do that, you can ask the buyer for the 6 digit code after the item has arrived.

OP3 weeks agoThis obviously is a bug in the program. I am sure the buyer did not elect to pick up the item, which is a small decal sent in a standard envelope. This already happened in a different purchase when the buyer bought two different items. I am not aware of any codes being generated when an item is delivered. If I cancel the sale, I will loose my payment for one of the items. The other was marked as shipped.
